This is a new programme of short courses designed to give you the essence of our analysis and ratings methodologies.
Each session will be a maximum of a half day
in length, yet will give you the basics - an understanding of criteria, models
and techniques and how these are combined to produce a rating. Each session will
feature a senior analytical practice member who will also be available to answer
your questions.
There will be additional Elements of Standard & Poor's courses as the year
goes on. Additional free courses will be offered, including:
Factoring
Sovereign Support into Bank Ratings (Providing an insight into Standard&
Poor’s criteria relating to potential sovereign and other external support factors
