Fitch Ratings says that Kildare Securities Limited's ratings are not affected by the change of mortgage manager to Bank of Ireland (Berlin: BIR.BE - news) (BBB/Negative/F2) from ICS Building Society, a subsidiary of Bank of Ireland. This is because since October 2011, ICS Building Society in its capacity as mortgage manager has delegated the performance of the mortgage manager functions to Bank of Ireland as permitted under the Mortgage Management Agreement. The change in mortgage manager occurred on 4 April 2014.
