DBRS Publishes Updated Corporate Finance Methodologies

DBRS Limited (DBRS) has today published two updated corporate finance methodologies as follows:

(1) Rating Companies in the Industrial Products Industry; and
(2) Rating Companies in the Merchandising Industry.

These two methodologies supersede existing methodologies each published in July 2014 and October 2014. The changes provide clarification on how DBRS treats finance subsidiaries but are not substantive and DBRS has determined that no ratings will change as a result of these updates.

DBRS's rating definitions and the terms of use of such ratings are available at www.dbrs.com.

DBRS’s methodologies and criteria are available by contacting us at info@dbrs.com.
