QIB's Viability Rating (VR) reflects the bank's high exposure to Qatar's operating environment, strong company profile, sound asset quality, and solid profitability. The VR also reflects QIB's adequate capitalisation and stable funding and liquidity, according to Fitch. Fitch expects the bank's asset quality metrics to remain stable in 2024-2025.
