IOSCO releases consultation paper regarding credit rating agencies

Posted on May 12, 2010

The Technical Committee of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) recently released a consultation report addressing recent regulatory initiatives that impact credit rating agencies. Specifically, the report is intended to evaluate whether, and if so how, international initiatives implement the four IOSCO principles regarding credit rating agencies, being: (i) quality and integrity in the rating process; (ii) independence and conflicts of interest; (iii) transparency and timeliness of ratings disclosure; and (iv) confidential information.

IOSCO is accepting public comments on the report until August 6, 2010.
