问题如下:
Peter, a fixed income analyst, recently has some problems conducting an independent analysis of company A's credit risk, which of the following is least likely to be the reason?
选项:
A.Rating agencies have difficulty in capturing idiosyncratic risk.
B.Rating agencies tend to lag market pricing of credit.
C.Rating agencies can not predict future debt-financed acquisitions.
解释:
C is correct.
Future debt-financed acquisitions are difficult to be predicted for both analysts and ratings agencies.
考点:independent analysis and ratings agencies
解析:这道题目想让我们选择,rating agencies的一些limitation,但是independent analyst 也无法克服,也就是两者都有的缺点。
选项C是两者都面临的问题,independent analysis和credit rating都无法对未来事件做出准确的预测;经济事件如法规变动等,一些自然事件,如火灾、地震导致企业违约等都是无法预测的。这是评级机构,独立分析师两者在做分析时共同面临的问题,故选项C正确。
A选项说,评级机构很难抓住非系统风险,其实不然,credit rating agency在评级时也都会考虑到每一个评级主体的自己独特的risk,所以A选项错误。rating agency 可能调整评级滞后,但是研究员可以及时调整,选项B是independent analysis的优点,因此不选B。
