PRACTICAL PROBLEMS
The widespread of branch network of the rating
agency may limit skills in rating. Inexperienced, unskilled or overloaded staff may not do justice to their job & the resulting ratings may not be perfect. The rating is not permanent but subject to changes & moreover the agencies can not give any guarantee for the investors. The time factor greatly affects rating & gives misleading conclusions. A company which adverse conditions temporarily will be given a low rating judged on the basis of temporary phenomenon.
CONCLUSION
Credit rating agencies use their judgment and
experience in determining what public and private information should be considered in giving a rating to a particular company or government. The credit rating is used by individuals and entities that purchase the bonds issued by companies and governments to determine the likelihood that the government will pay its bond obligations. A poor credit rating indicates a credit rating agency's opinion that the company or government has a high risk of defaulting, based on the agency's analysis of the entity's history and analysis of long term economic prospects. More importantly, a credit crisis has transformed into a much wider and deeper crisis of confidence in the global markets. Credit rating agencies have an opportunity to help restore confidence in markets by restoring confidence in our industry.
