A modern credit rating agency: the story of Moody's
This book aims to present a picture of one of the world's leading credit rating agencies. Credited as being the first credit rating agency, Moody's stands as the epitome of the rating sector and all that it effects. However, outside of internal and non-public histories compiled within the rating agency itself, the story of Moody's has never been told, until now. However, this is not a historical book. Rather, this book paints a picture of Moody's on a wider canvas that introduces the concept of rating to you, taking into account the origins of the sector, the competitive battles that formed the modern-day oligopoly, and the characters that have each taken their turn on sculpting the industry that, today, is critical to the modern economy. The book is a story of personable people who provided the market with what it needed, but it is more than that. It is a story of conflict, impact, strategy, and most of all the relationship between big business and modern society. Standing as the gatekeeper to the capital markets that form the core of modern society, Moody's represents the very best of what the marketplace can produce, but also the very worst. This story takes in economic crises in the antebellum US, the Panics of the early 1900s, the Wall Street Crash and the Great Depression and, of course, the Global Financial Crisis. It does this because, at the heart of each one was a member of the rating industry or the reporting industry that preceded it. Associated with almost any financial scandal you may care to remember the credit rating agencies, in their often-uncomfortable role as gatekeepers, have their fingerprints on most financial scandals and calamities. This book tells the story of the industry's founding member.

ARE SHORT SELLERS INFORMED? EVIDENCE FROM CREDIT RATING AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENTS
In: The journal of financial research: the journal of the Southern Finance Association and the Southwestern Finance Association, Volume 40, Issue 2, p. 179-221
ISSN: 1475-6803
AbstractAlthough constrained by rules and regulations, informed short selling (tipping) is present before negative credit watch and certain types of rating downgrade announcements. Using entity credit rating and daily short sale data from April 2004 to December 2009, we find that preannouncement abnormal short selling significantly increases toward the announcement dates and is negatively related to postannouncement stock returns. Furthermore, short selling driven by tipping is more pronounced before more severe and more surprising rating downgrades. This study provides evidence favoring the private information hypothesis (tipping) in the ongoing debate of the informational advantage of short sellers.
