Introduction to Credit Rating

Ph: 98949 49988
Introduction to CREDIT Rating What is Credit ? Provision of resources by one party to another party. The second party does not reimburse the first party immediately, and instead arranges either to repay or return the resources at a later date. It is any form of deferred payment. The first party is called a creditor, also known as a lender, while the second party is called a debtor, also known as a borrower. Credit is important since Individuals and Corporations with poor credit will have difficulty finding financing and will most likely have to pay more due to the risk of default

What is a credit rating? A credit rating is an opinion on the relative degree of risk associated with timely payment of interest and principal on a debt instrument. A Credit rating assesses the Credit worthiness (ability to pay interest and principal in time) of an Individual, Corporation or even a country. A simple alphanumeric symbol is used to convey a credit rating. Credit Ratings are calculated from Financial History, Current Assets and Liabilities of a firm and History of borrowing and repayment. Tells a lender or an investor the probability of default by borrower (not being able to pay back a loan) A poor credit rating indicates a high default risk.

What credit rating is NOT? Not a recommendation to buy, hold or sell a debt instrument A rating is one of the inputs that is used by investors to make an investment decision Rating do not comment on the return being offered on a debt instrument nor are they offered as guarantees or protections against default. They are opinions only Rating is specific to the instrument & is not the rating of the issuer Ratings are not intended to measure factors such as liquidity risk, pre-payment risk, interest rate risk, risk of secondary market loss, or exchange loss risk

What credit rating is NOT? A credit rating is not an assurance of repayment of the rated instrument. It is possible that some highly rated issuers could default. In the US, some instruments rated at even 'AAA' levels have defaulted. However, such defaults would be less frequent amongst highly rated instruments than amongst instruments with lower ratings
