credit ratings expanded sharply. Standard & Poor’s awarded in the late 70’s ratings only
for 12 countries and currently it assigned ratings for 129 countries. Global rating agencies

between borrowers (countries) – acting as issuers and lenders – acting as investors. In this
paper I will analyse sovereign rating definition and I will explain the importance of rating
agencies. |
