The Effectiveness of Credit Rating Agency Monitoring: Evidence from Asset Securitizations

Abstract: This study investigates how differences between the rating agencies' initial (at the date of debt issuance) and subsequent (post-issuance) monitoring incentives affect securitizing banks' rating accuracy. We hypothesize that the agencies have stronger incentives to monitor issuers when providing initial versus post-issuance ratings. We document that initial ratings are positively associated with off-balance sheet securitized assets and incrementally associated with on-balance sheet retained securities. However… Show more

“…Therefore, CRAs provide the market with information beyond publicly available sources, contributing to alleviating information asymmetries in the IPO markets (An and Chan, ; Chan and Lo, ).

“…Segundo Wooldridge (2006) Fonte: elaborada pelo autor Nota: destaca-se que os ratings possuem uma escala que segue os estudos de Cheng e Subramanyam (2008), Damasceno et al (2008), Johnston et al (2009), Bonsall et al (2015, Batta et al (2016) Esse resultado vai de encontro ao que fora ressaltado por Ederington (1985), ou seja, as agências de ratings podem não considerar mais variáveis do que um modelo estatístico pode incorporar. Considerando os resultados reportados na Tabela 10, verifica-se que cerca de 30% das alterações de ratings podem ser explicados pela variação conjunta das variáveis inseridas no modelo estatístico aqui proposto.…”
