Are credit ratings valuable information? [PDF]
Applied Financial Economics, 2007 Credit ratings are commonly used by lenders to assess the default risk, because every credit is connected with a possible loss. If the probability of a default is above a certain threshold, a credit will not be provided. The purpose of this study is to test whether credit ratings contribute valuable information on the creditworthiness of firms ...
