Our Services
Providing forward-looking insights and in-depth information on rated entities, our credit ratings enable investors to identify risks, understand credit trends, and make better decisions. Issuers and borrowers leverage our ratings for enhancing their access to funding, widening range of funding alternatives, and optimizing cost of funds.
Using the most rigorous criteria, we rate financial institutions and insurers, corporates of all kinds, holding companies, local and regional governments, and debt obligations of all those entities.
Following best global practices, our team has set new transparency standards for the Russian ratings industry and instituted several innovations to promote clarity, knowledge and better understanding for the entire community.
