RatingAgency.com is the first blog and podcast covering the people and activities of the credit rating agencies. We'll be keeping track of personnel moves, criteria changes, and profiling the most powerful unknown players on Wall Street -- the bond analysts who move the capital markets.
Jerome S. Fons, a former managing director at Moody’s (on “The Street” they refer to these capstone titles as “MDs”), and Frank Partnoy, a law professor at the University of San Diego, gave rating agencies a failing grade in The New York Times (“Rated F for Failure,” March 16, 2009).
No word on Fitch’s grades, or whether anyone will get detention.
