Stockholm (Direkt) S&P nedgraderade på tisdagskvällen ett gäng banker efter att ha ändrat kriterierna för gradering av banker. Det skrev Bloomberg News.
JP Morgan nedgraderades till A med stabila utsikter från tidigare A+.
Royal Bank of Scotland sänktes till A-/A-2 från tidigare A/A-1.
Barclays nedgraderades till A med stabila utsikter från tidigare A+.
Även Citigroup, Goldman Sachs och Bank of America nedgraderades, till A- från tidigare A.

Två kinesiska banker fick höjt kreditbetyg, medan 20 banker behöll tidigare omdömen. Hit hör bland annat BNP Parisbas, Crédit Agricole och Deutsche Bank.

Den nya metodiken för att bedöma bankernas kreditvärdighet fokuserar mer på hur bankerna kan väntas klara svåra marknadsförhållanden, samt sannolikheten för statligt stöd vid eventuella krislägen, skriver Wall Street Journal.

Bankerna backade i den amerikanska efterhandeln i spåren av tisdagskvällens meddelande från S&P och även i den asiatiska handeln förlorade banksektorn mark.
