The BradyNet Ratings Ladder is the calculated average rating of the three agencies participating on BradyNet: Moody's, S&P, and FitchIBCA Duff & Phelps. Specific points are assigned to each possible rating level. Starting with 100 points assigned to a perfect AAA (or Aaa) rating, points are then subtracted for every ratings level below AAA for each country. In case of a positive or negative outlook, 1 point is added or subtracted, repectively. The average is calculated from these assigned points. The table above lists countries by their average rating.
