Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") today assigned Aa3 ratings to Colgate-Palmolive Company's ("Colgate") proposed E1.0 billion senior unsecured notes in multiple maturities. Colgate's credit profile reflects the company's strong global market positions in multiple consumer product categories supported by well-known brands and global distribution. Colgate's large scale, relatively predictable cash flow and leading global market position in oral care are key credit strengths.
