Moody's Investors Service downgraded the short-term debt ratings of four corporate credit unions to Prime-3 from Prime-1.The affected corporates were Members United Corporate FCU, Central Corporate CU, Corporate Central CU and SunCorp Corporate CU. Following the April 14 rating actions, the outlooks for all four corporates are developing.The actions reflect the corporates' weakened credit assessments, particularly because of the eventual impairment of the corporates' capital investments in U.S. Central FCU and losses in their securities portfolios.
