CESR published a list of questions that has been submitted to the four Credit Rating Agencies asking for additional information.
The questions deal mainly with the following areas of the structured finance market:
- Transparency of rating methodologies;
- Human resources allocated to rating and monitoring;
- Periodic monitoring of the ratings;
- Methodology changes;
- Potential conflicts of interest.
The responses to these questions will be made public and will constitute a main input for CESR’s 2007 report.
Written responses have been requested by the end of November.
