Step 5

Step 6

Surveillance & Monitoring

 

  1. MARC’s Rating Process begins with a specific rating mandate from the client. As a policy, all rating assignments are executed by a team of two or more analysts, to eliminate any personal bias.
  2. The rating team conducts preliminary research and collects relevant information from the client, prior to conducting management meetings with various business heads and senior management of the client.
  3. The rating team prepares a Credit Analysis Report and proposes a rating(s). The rating assessment which will reflect the application of MARC’s rating methodology is presented to MARC’s Rating Committee, which has the sole authority to assign ratings.
  4. The typical rating process takes about 6 weeks from mandate comprising 2 weeks of data gathering phase, 2 weeks for MARC to complete its internal rating process (from submission of all required information) and 2 weeks for preparation of report and factual verification by issuer.
