- 6 /6/2016 Press Release Fitch Rates Maybank Indonesia's Senior Sukuk 'AAA(idn)', Subordinated Bond 'AA(idn)' Fitch RatingsJakarta/Taipei/Singapore06 June 2016: Fitch Ratings Indonesia has assigned National Ratings to PT Bank Maybank Indonesia Tbk's (Maybank Indonesia; BBB/AAA(idn)/Stable) proposed issuance of rupiah sharia senior and rupiah subordinated bonds as follows: Sharia senior bonds up to a maximum of IDR700bn with a maturity of three years assigned a National LongTerm Rating of 'AAA(idn)' Subordinated bonds up to a maximum of IDR800bn with a maturity of seven years assigned a National LongTerm Rating of 'AA(idn)' The bonds are issued under Maybank Indonesia's existing sharia senior Debt Programme I of up to IDR1trn and subordinated Debt Programme II of up to IDR3trn, to which Fitch had previously assigned National LongTerm Ratings of 'AAA(idn)' and 'AA(idn)', respectively. The proceeds will be used to support business growth. 'AAA' LongTerm National Ratings denote the highest rating assigned by Fitch on its national rating scale for that country. This rating is assigned to issuers or obligations with the lowest expectation of default risk relative to all other issuers or obligations in the same country. 'AA' National Ratings denote expectations of low default risk relative to other issuers or obligations in the same country. However, changes in circumstances or economic conditions may affect the capacity for timely repayment to a greater degree than is the case for financial commitments denoted by a higher rated category. KEY RATING DRIVERS The proposed senior debt is rated at the same level as Maybank Indonesia's National LongTerm Rating as it constitutes direct, unsubordinated and senior unsecured obligations of the company and ranks equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The proposed subordinated debt is rated two notches below Maybank Indonesia's National LongTerm Rating one notch for loss severity (reflecting their writedown features), and one notch for non performance risk (reflecting their subordinated status and coupon and/or principal deferral risk). The notes will represent direct, subordinated and unsecured obligations of the bank and rank equally with all its other unsecured and subordinated obligations. Maybank Indonesia's rating reflects Fitch's view of a high likelihood of timely support from its higher rated parent, Malaysiabased Malayan Banking Berhad (Maybank; A/Negative), in time of need. This view is based on Maybank Indonesia's strategic importance to Maybank's regional business expansion in southeast Asia, the parent's majority ownership/control, and a high level of integration with its parent. RATING SENSITIVITIES Any changes in the bank's National Rating would affect these issue ratings. Downward rating pressure may arise from a multinotch downgrade of the parent's rating or any developments leading to a weakening of perceived support from the parent, such as major changes to ownership or a significant weakening in the parent's financial ability, although Fitch believes this to be a remote prospect in the near to medium term. There is no rating upside for the bank's rating as it is at the top of the scale. https://www.fitchratings.com/site/pressrelease?id=1005612 1/3

Note to editors: Fitch's National ratings provide a relative measure of creditworthiness for rated entities in countries with relatively low international sovereign ratings and where there is demand for such ratings. The best risk within a country is rated 'AAA' and other credits are rated only relative to this risk. National ratings are designed for use mainly by local investors in local markets and are signified by the addition of an identifier for the country concerned, such as 'AAA(idn)' for National ratings in Indonesia. Specific letter grades are not therefore internationally comparable.
