The Fitch Ratings International Public Finance Group provides coverage on the foreign and local currency debt of subnational governments as well as public sector entities. With global coverage coordinated from Barcelona and New York, and with significant offices in local marketplaces around the world, Fitch Ratings is able to offer a thorough and multicultural knowledge of public finance.
Fitch Ratings has developed a comprehensive credit analysis approach based on a fine assessment of several factors: the relationship between the various tiers of government and an analysis of the link between the public sector entity and the subnational; the appropriate balance between economic and financial criteria as well as between objective and qualitative factors; the capacity to place highly diverse situations in an international perspective.
The International Public Finance group maintains an ongoing dialogue with issuers, offering not only ratings but timely commentary on credit trends within the sector. Our analysts on the ground in local markets are able to respond quickly to evolving credit, legal and regulatory environment, as well as the relationships among the various tiers of government.
