Ratings
External ratings show how the economic situation and creditworthiness of companies, institutions or states are assessed. Ratings are carried out on the basis of quantitative and qualitative factors. The result of a rating is the allocation to a credit rating level or rating class. The designations of the levels vary from one rating agency to the next.
NORD/LB is currently assessed by three rating agencies.
