| ![]() Ratings Agencies: Judging Fiscal Policy through Political Process, at Public Finance Leaders ForumPublic Finance Leaders Forum 2011, "Navigating Uncharted Territories After S&P's U.S. Downgrade from its Gilt-Edged AAA Credit Rating", Conference by Golden Networking in NYC with the First Analysis of the Impact of the U.S. Credit Rating Downgrade
Behind all too many of market moves in government debt of late has been a report from one of the major agencies, S&P, Moody's and Fitch Ratings. They are alternately vilified by politicians or held out as just arbiters for denouncing government profligacy. Yet there is an overwhelming irony in their new-found prominence, as these are the same firms that gave out top ratings to ultimately worthless structured mortgage products during the 2007-2008 credit crisis, allowing the credit bubble to form. Now they sit in judgment of the countries that had to ruin their public balance sheets to prevent financial collapse by saving the banks shattered by those bad instruments once blessed by the agencies. • Are ratings agencies trying to rebuild their credibility with their recent actions? • Are they now up to the task of evaluating world governments for bond issuances and other investments?
