DBRS Publishes Updated Rating Canadian Public Pension Funds & Related Exclusive Asset Managers Methodology

DBRS has today released an updated version of the methodology “Rating Canadian Public Pension Funds & Related Exclusive Asset Managers,” which supersedes the version previously published in November 2016.

DBRS deems the updates as not material and has determined that the updated methodology will not result in any rating actions on existing Canadian public pension fund and related exclusive asset manager ratings.

The changes made to the updated methodology are generally editorial in nature and are intended to provide further clarity and increased transparency into DBRS’s rating approach.

Publication of the updated methodology is part of DBRS’s ongoing efforts to provide greater transparency into the ratings process by outlining the various factors that DBRS considers when evaluating Canadian public pension funds and related exclusive asset managers.

Notes:
DBRS criteria and methodologies are publicly available on its website www.dbrs.com under Methodologies.
