Frequently asked questions
How does Moody's source proprietary data?
Moody's draws on public filings, issuer disclosures, and a proprietary analytics platform. The firm's June 2023 acquisition of Dun & Bradstreet's data analytics business added private-company financial data that is not available in public filings (per the firm, June 2023).
What investment stages does Moody's typically target?
This question does not apply to Moody's. The firm does not invest capital — it rates debt at all stages, from sovereign bonds to startup debt, but does not deploy its own balance sheet into external assets.
Which sectors does Moody's explicitly avoid?
Moody's does not avoid any sector by mandate. The firm rates issuers across all sectors — sovereign, financial, corporate, structured finance, infrastructure — wherever debt securities are issued. However, it does not rate unrated private companies or assets without a market debt offering.
