As the leading European credit rating agency, Scope Ratings offers clients opinion-driven, forward-looking and non-mechanistic credit risk analysis and contributes to greater diversity of credit opinions for institutional investors. Founded in 2012, Scope Ratings differs from other agencies’ traditional one-size-fits-all top-down methodologies. The agency recognises the importance of national and regional differences in laws, regulations, political processes and business culture across Europe.

Scope Ratings is registered in accordance with EU rating regulations and operates in the European Union with ECAI status. Scope is also registered with the Swiss authority FINMA.
