| Research Abstract |
The present research shows that, 1) it takes for granted that there are differences among credit ratings by Japanese and the US rating agencies, since ratings represent opinions by raging agencies on credit risk of bonds, 2) both the Japanese agencies and the US agencies already incorporated the accounting standards change to be promulgated in the near future, 3) the Japanese agencies incorporate non-financial information of Japanese companies into rating, though in the tacit manner, though 4) the timing of the change of ratings by Japanese agencies is slower than the US agencies, in this sense, Japanese agencies are followers in the market.
The head investigator is now working on the credit risk evaluation of software companies incorporating non financial information, such as technologies, and the formula is going to be used by governmental institution.
