Rating threat to BAA offer

Moody's Investors Service has warned it may cut BAA's credit ratings closer to junk if the UK airport operator is taken over in a £8.75bn (€12.6bn) deal by the consortium led by Spanish conglomerate Ferrovial.

The rating move affects £5.5bn of BAA debt, including convertible bonds.
