| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research project is to examine the role of multiple ratings. First, this study examines whether the classification of investment-grade and speculative-grade impacts on earnings management. The results revealed that firms that were assigned BBB- and BB+ ratings implemented real earnings management. I also found that rating agencies discount the real earnings management of companies with multiple ratings in their rating evaluations compared to those with a single rating. Second, focusing on the voluntary adoption of IFRS, I examine how multiple ratings affect rating relevance. The results revealed that companies with multiple ratings have improved their credit rating relevance of accounting figures after IFRS voluntary adoption.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は複数格付の役割を明らかにしている点に学術的な意義がある。先行研究では格付機関間の競争が及ぼす格付に与える影響の結果は一貫していない。海外では2社以上の格付機関から格付を取得することが一般的であり、S&PとMoody'sのシェアが高い。本研究は単一格付の取得が一般的で、格付機関が5社存在する日本のセッティングを用いて、格付機関の競争の役割を明らかにしている点に学術的な意義を有している。
