Mission

Expert Rating RA takes an active part in generation of the competitive market of the rating services in Ukraine. We disapprove the practice of obligatory rating in Ukraine. We consider the obligatory rating to be the way to the sags in the development of the country’s financial market. Thus it deprives the regulator of the opportunity to influence the financial agents.

Ratings play an important role in modern capital markets. But in the terms of domestic market where the developed technology of information disclosure is absent and the administration of internationally accepted standards of operations and accounting is insufficient, any credit rating contains the probability of an error. We are not going to bring any body in a verdict of guilty. Our Rating Agency is ready to offer to issuers, investors and financial institutions an alternative — the system of requested ratings.

Our mission is to gather and analyze a variety of financial, industry, market and economic information, synthesize that information, and publish independent, credible assessments of the liability of Ukrainian companies, thereby providing a convenient way for investors to judge the credit quality of various alternative investment options. We not just give a rating letter. We help to create a technology of information disclosure in Ukraine. The objective system of rating combined with Expert Ukraine Group’s unique channels of information distribution transforms ratings to instrument, which favors the effective advancement of securities, products and services of financial agents in the capital market.

Our Rating Agency sets itself the strategic task to gain the market’s confidence and convert the rating to the essential attribute of the domestic market. Creation of the objective system of rating estimations will help to realize this task.

We are also aiming at solution of a number of problems which are objective bases for further development of the capital market of Ukraine including:

- formation of the civilized informational field at the national financial market with clear rules;

- formation of the technology of information’s voluntary disclosure at the national markets of securities and financial services;

- granting investors, depositors, financial agents and regulators the high-grade ratings which may serve as a potential landmark for well-grounded decisions.
