Workshop of the Career Service in collaboration with Moody's.
Credit risk is a key component of financial analysis – it focuses on whether you will get paid in full and on time when you lend someone money. At Moody's, we take a fundamental approach to assessing credit risk, based on financial metrics and analytical judgment.
Content of the workshop:
In this session members of our Corporate Finance analytical team will describe the role of a Credit Rating Agency in financial markets, as well as the rating process, before leading the group through a case study applying one of our published methodologies to two hypothetical companies participating in an acquisition.
Objectives of the workshop:
Attendees will learn how financial strength and other credit factors can drive ratings.
Methods:
The event is expected to last around 1.5 hours, with time for Q&A incorporated throughout. The session will be conducted in English.

This workshop is open to students of all disciplines, but most appropriate for those pursuing finance, economics, mathematics or statistics.
