Moody's Local México Assigns Investment-Grade Ratings to Grupo Trafalgar Subsidiaries
Moody's Local México has assigned investment-grade national-scale ratings to two subsidiaries of Grupo Trafalgar: TRF Casa de Bolsa and Trafalgar SFP. The broker-dealer, TRF Casa de Bolsa, received a BBB+.mx rating with a stable outlook, while the popular financial company (SOFIPO), Trafalgar SFP, was rated BBB.mx also with a stable outlook. These ratings reflect the subsidiaries' strong capitalization plans and conservative risk profiles under Grupo Trafalgar's ownership since June 2026. TRF Casa de Bolsa operates independently without backing from a banking group, which makes its creditworthiness notable in Mexico’s market where many broker-dealers benefit from parent bank support. The ratings are based on Moody's Local México normalization scenarios and the firm's ability to maintain regulatory compliance while growing assets under custody. The Group has expressed interest in expanding into U.S. and Mexican securities markets, with management projecting breakeven by mid-2027 and positive net income for 2028.
