DBRS today announces the close of the request for comment process on two corporate finance methodologies. On March 6, 2017, DBRS requested comments on two global methodologies as follows:

(1) Rating Public-Private Partnerships
(2) DBRS Criteria: Guarantees and Other Forms of Support

These methodologies were already in use in North America, but comments were requested to permit them to be used by DBRS analysts globally. The comment period closed on April 6, 2017. No comments were received and so the versions published on March 6, 2017, remain in final form.

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

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