Tiivistelmä: | Delayed rating adjustments are due to rating agencies' prudency in rating revisions. For a large set of eurobonds, this study derives credit spread implied ratings (here as: s-i-rts.), comparing them with agency ratings. These results indicate that s-i-rts. often anticipate the future movement of agency ratings, hence helping to track credit risk in a more timely manner. This finding has important implications for risk managers in banks etc. |
