About Us
Rapid Ratings™ is a unique financial services company utilizing a proprietary quantitative system to rate the financial health of corporations and financial institutions. Rapid Ratings™ has none of the biases or conflicts of the incumbent rating agencies and has a unique methodology for evaluating the FHRs™ of companies that is not only early and insightful; it is timely and actionable by credit and equity market professionals.
Rapid Ratings™ generates revenue from users of Company data (the "user pay" model), not from the companies we rate. The Company has spent considerable time developing value-added products from the FHR™ system. Rapid Ratings™ has been proven to be both value added (generating Alpha, identifying distress situations earlier than the market) and early (leading S&P and Moody's ratings changes by years and often share price, credit default swaps and bond spreads).
Rapid Ratings™ currently has Credit and Equity Buy-Side and Sell-Side customers and in general Company products are applicable to a wide range of firms and professionals in three broad categories:
