Credit Ratings On Bloomberg Professional
The Bloomberg Professional terminal, located in the Subotnick Financial Services Center, has credit ratings on companies including international banks. You will find ratings by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch (if tracked) for each company.
After you type in the ticker for a bank, for example, you can next type the command, CRPR , to get a credit rating profile. The credit history on these companies seems to go back as far as 10 years.
You can use the command, RATC , to get an alphabetical list of companies with their recent credit rating revisions as well as historical ratings (over 4000 companies). You can then sort from this point on.
MYOB software
There are students asking for access to the MYOB accounting software. It is available on the PCs at the BCTC.
