List of Countries by Credit Rating – Now a pure European Rating Agency is included

Starting from June 26th, 2020, Wikirating is including in the list of countries by credit rating also the sovereign credit ratings from Scope Ratings – beside S&P, Moody’s and Fitch.

This is a contribution to offer the possibility to compare at a glance the credit ratings from one of the most relevant pure European credit rating agencies^[1] with the American “Big Three”. Besides all EU countries, China, the USA, Japan, Russia, the UK, Switzerland, Norway, Turkey and Georgia are presently rated by Scope Ratings.

“We are pleased that Wikirating now includes the sovereign credit ratings of Scope in its overview of sovereign ratings. This presents a fresh European vantage point on sovereign risk.” – Giacomo Barisone, Managing Director in Public Finance, Scope Ratings.
