Definition 21.2 Markets II: Rates, FX and Credit · Bab 21 — Corporate Bonds

A credit rating is a rating agency’s opinion of an issuer’s or a bond’s creditworthiness, on a letter scale from AAA (Aaa) down to D. Bonds rated BBB−- (Baa3) or above are investment grade; those rated BB++ (Ba1) or below are high yield. A fallen angel is an issuer downgraded from investment grade to high yield by at least one of the three major agencies.

Illustrative path; data: the chapter’s tutorial.
