The top three US credit rating agencies include Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s (S&P), and the Fitch Group. The US credit rating agencies dominate the global market and can make or break a company’s prospects with their reports. However, BRICS now aims to put an end to the US credit rating agencies by creating their own ranking ability firm.
