Rating service
A company that publishes ratings for securities such as Preferred stock and Debt issues based on the likelihood of consistent and timely payments. These rankings are arrived at by looking at a variety of Balance sheet data. Some Rating services are very influential, and an upgrade or downgrade can affect their borrowing costs significantly.
