What is Credit Rating?
A credit rating is an evaluation of the creditworthiness of a borrower, which can be an individual, corporation, or governmental entity. It is an informed assessment made by a credit rating agency that analyzes the entity's financial history, ability to repay debts, and the overall economic and financial environment. This rating influences the entity's access to borrowing and the terms of that borrowing, reflecting the entity's reliability and financial health.
