  • Publication number: 20230281709
    Abstract: A corporate credit ratings methodology based on the measurement of overall organisational performance is defined and explained. The overall organisational performance is then further explained that it can be derived by measuring over-arching variables of stability, resilience and sustainability. The overall organisational performance corresponds to existing ratings scale which shows corporate credit ratings can be given from the derived overall organisational performance for each company. The values of sub-dimensions can be collected and benchmarked from public and private data sources as explained in the embodiments. A collected data points can be benchmarked, weighted and finally values of stability, resilience and sustainability can be generated leading to the overall organisational performance score and its further interpretation into assigning a corresponding credit ratings to a corporate.
