Question 1

Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00




Which of the following statements
regarding rating agencies is correct?


a. Corruption is not considered
when rating agencies assign an
investment rating to an
economy.
b. The level of public debt is not
considered when rating agencies
assign an investment rating to
an economy.
c. Countries that fall under 
non-investment grade are
also referred to as “junk
status” economies.
d. Credit ratings are only assigned
at the macroeconomic level.



Corruption is considered when rating
agencies assign an investment rating to
an economy. Corruption by government
often leads to mismanagement of public
nances and resources, resulting in
increased government debt and lack of
service delivery to citizens. Corruption
occurs because resources are not used
for the purposes they are meant for. This
negatively affects investor con dence.

The level of public debt is considered
when rating agencies decide on a credit
rating. If government is unable to repay
its debt, this makes the country a higher
default risk. Default risk refers to the risk
associated with a country’s ability to
repay its debts. Therefore, the higher the
level of public debt, the higher the default
risk associated with the country.
Countries that fall under non-investment
grade are also referred to as “junk status”
economies. These are usually countries
with high levels of public debt, corruption,
low economic growth, and political
interference in state institutions.
Credit ratings can also be assigned at a
smaller scale to commercial banks, such
as Absa and First National Bank, state-
owned enterprises such as Eskom and
even retail stores, such as Edgars. Their
creditworthiness, management and
e ciency are also assessed before
individuals and large pension funds
decide to invest.
