Emerging Credit Rating Limited (ECRL) External Credit Assessment Institution (ECAI) It is not an all-encompassing label of “goodness” for a corporation.

Credit Rating is an informed, well-researched and thought out opinion on the likelihood of risk of default of a corporation which can fall under the label of a financial institution, an insurance company or a non-banking corporation. The assessment may be that of an organization’s risk of default on its financial obligations in general, or the likelihood of default on a particular loan or debt. It

can be seen as fulfilling the need for more information in the market by providing current and timely Rating based on a standardized scale, a response to the demand for more information by issuers and borrowers. According to current law, public offers of all debt instruments are required to have a Credit rating prior to being issued. This mandate includes bonds, debentures, commercial paper, structured finance and asset/mortgage backed securities. In addition, initial public offering of all banks and non-financial institutions require a credit assessment, along with public issues of shares at a premium. The competitive landscape of the Credit Rating industry consists of only two local companies. We believe there is a huge potential for growth in this industry and look forward to serving our clients and investors with the highest quality of risk assessment and Credit Rating services.
