Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings rated the notes at investment grade "A-plus", while Moody's Investor Service assigned an equivalent "A1" rating.
 
The ratings have been issued as part of Alibaba's plan to issue unsecured notes to raise some 8 billion U.S. dollars.
 
The company does say it will use the new funding to refinance its current debt, which reportedly stands at around 11 billion dollars.
