Credit Rating Analytics is a bespoke advisory firm focusing on financial markets and the credit rating industry. One of the reasons behind setting up the company stems from the fact that credit rating agencies apply a low level of uniformity when handing out credit ratings and there is no parallel support function that rated entities can turn to. The current industry can be compared to a judicial system in which judges set the legislation, hand out judgments and the clients don’t have any legal representation for their respective cases.

Governments are then often forced to accept these credit opinions as their feedback may be noted but not seriously considered when the final rating is handed out. We then believe that a gap exists for an independent organization that governments can turn to and work with regarding their important credit profiles.

By our estimates, there are around 145 credit rating agencies in existence, operating out of 6 regions of the globe. Whilst the industry has grown exponentially over the past 3 decades, the support industry to complement these services remains underdeveloped. This is where Credit Rating Analytics comes in as we aim to fill this gap and provide a world-class support function that issuers can turn to.
