Russia's initiative on the work of "international" rating agencies. Who will show someone red? ..

168
In 2017, the legislative section regarding rating agencies will come into force in Russia. Moreover, the entry into force of this section among professional economists, as it happened, causes diametrically opposite assessments. At the moment, everyone agrees on one thing: for the existing economic model, this solution will not be trivial. So what is the legislative decision, whose plans are still being hatched?

The fact is that Russia at the state level is going to introduce a rule for international agencies that assign ratings according to the so-called national rating scale. This rule says that international rating services are not entitled to revoke credit ratings based on decisions of third countries. In particular, we are talking about the fact that a certain international rating agency will not be able to change the rating assigned to the national economy if, in relation to this economy or its individual components (companies, banks), someone has decided to impose sanctions or other restrictive measures. In fact, the decision being prepared by the Russian authorities looks like an appeal to international rating agencies: either you do your job openly, or - come on, bye!

Russia's initiative on the work of "international" rating agencies. Who will show someone red? ..


In addition, it is also a transparent hint that it is time for the so-called international rating agencies to attend to the implementation of the legislation of those countries whose national economic ratings they are: enter the credit rating of Russia - comply with the legislation!

It would seem that everything is extremely simple, however, such an initiative by the Russian representatives of rating services, who call themselves international, clearly puzzled. Economists who are not related to these agencies, took, as noted at the beginning, in fact, diametrically opposed positions. Some say that such a step of Russia (if it will be made in 2017) will bury the Russian economy, since it will actually follow the path of separation from the global economy. Others are confident that this step of Russia will bury the rating agencies themselves, in which the word “international” in the title does not really reflect their affiliation with certain states.

If we talk about the actual rating structures, then the first alarm sounded in Fitch. The head of the analytical service of this agency Ian Linnell gave an interview to the agency Bloomberg, talking about what decision he and his colleagues decided to take. According to Linnell, he understands that Russia is trying to protect its financial system from any external negative factors, but Fitch, by definition, cannot follow the path of compliance with Russian legislation. Great, isn't it ... And what kind of legislation for Fitch comes first?

Interfax leads a translation of a fragment of a statement by Ian Linnell
The authorities are trying to surround the Russian financial system with a security ring. This can be understood, but we, as a global company that must comply with US laws, are put in a situation where, if sanctions are imposed on Russian customers, we violate either Russian or international law.


This is an outstanding statement in every sense, to which, undoubtedly, one can devote a report on the subject of modern economic norms. Yes, what report ... Linnell made only two proposals, but there would be enough of them for an entire PhD thesis.

Let's return to the statement of the chief analyst Fitch. The man says that his agency cannot break apart, choosing between Russian and international laws, and, of course, will choose international laws ... At the same time, Linnell says openly that a “global” company in which he works, “must comply with the laws USA". Well, yes, the company is an American company with the main headquarters in New York (USA), and therefore it is American laws for Fitch that are the basis of all activities. In other words, if the US authorities decided to impose sanctions on anyone (yes, even Russia), then, let this country have billions of dollars in reserves, no delinquency in paying loans, and indeed no minimum government debt, the agency will begin to drown the credit rating . What Fitch (and not only) does today.

And what kind of international law does Mr. Linnell speak about, if the US Constitution itself doesn’t put these laws at all ... This country has one law - AMERICAN. All the rest is the "filkina diploma", with which the USA has been wiping all the past decades, without particularly concealing its actions.

So ... Understanding that the Russian legislation is simply trying to make Fitch work responding not to a political, but to a real economic situation, the management of this company decided to take the only possible solution for the puppet structure - leaving Russia.

According to Linnell, if Russia really tries to oblige international rating agencies not to change the previously designated credit rating on the basis of politicized decisions of third countries, Fitch will leave and (oh, horror!) Leave Russia without a national credit rating.

But the main question is: is it (the ratings concocted by the American puppet companies that do not reflect the real economic situation) do we need? .. What can we talk about if the same Fitch gives the States and Japan a credit rating close to the maximum, despite the fact that these countries are breaking all records in terms of public debt. The government debt service is governed by the same States, not by real economic levers, but by a printing press heated to the limit and the spread of chaos in entire regions of the world. What can we say if Ukraine’s credit rating was not automatically transferred to the status of “default” after the overdue payment of debt (to Russia)? .. And one more thing: according to Fitch, Estonia’s credit rating, which is tight on EU loans, is equal to the credit rating China and India's higher credit rating! ..

If a rating assignment system is based on these calculations, then what is the point of working together with these, to put it mildly, liars (another word does not miss censorship) of an 80 level? ..

By the way, on what are those experts based who believe that the legislative step of Russia will bury frankly one-sided “international” agencies? And they are based on the fact that Russia is creating a precedent calling for these structures to comply not with American legislation, but in fact international. Moreover, Russia together with China itself creates a rating agency, which, presumably, will base its work not on politicized attacks, but on real economic components. Firstly, this is a good alternative to the American monopoly, and secondly, the opportunity for other players in the world market to compare. And if there is an opportunity to compare, then there is an opinion, and Fitch with his ratings written in Congress can point to the door in other countries of the world.

    Rating agencies - this is not what this or that country wants, but what the companies and states that give loans believe, the country of which does not need to take loans - these drum ratings are a priori.
    And now a simple question, who will force me (the creditor) to believe in someone whom I do not know and have never worked with, and even more so who have no (at the moment) reputation - I mean the newly created rating agencies, where a guarantee that they will not be politically engaged?
    Here the reputation develops over the years and at the request of a country nothing changes.
    So in my understanding - a simple air shock Everything will remain as it was, at least for the next 10 years

      Well, I don’t think it will remain as it was. For my country, the situation should change for the better. The less engaged organizations about the terrible situation in Russia will blow the whole world, the better. It is one thing when there is no information and the creditor will determine his actions himself, and another when the paid gang in his ear will itch that everything is bad and catastrophic. But we also need to understand that the refusal of the creditor to go on about the USA and its organizations is fraught with consequences for the creditor. Apparently we need to think not only about breaking the system, but also about building. But we have problems with this. Although under such a government this is not surprising

        For new agencies, the same will need to be somehow proved that they are not a * paid gang *, but it looks something like this.
        You apply to the bank for a loan, he says, well, we will check your credit history and your financial situation. we have an auditor, to which you are responding, but not to hell, I have my own, and bring the nikogma of the unknown Vasya Pupkin.

        These 3 rating agencies are not a private company in the United States; their ratings are used all over the world and not only in the credit ratings section of countries.

          Atalef, trust and reputation?

          2008-2009. Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac. If desired, the list can be continued. All of these bankrupts had the highest rating, which allowed to ruin thousands of people and companies, to launch the global crisis.

          Before you "marry", see for yourself, do not trust a "matchmaker with a reputation" and it is better to ask your neighbors ...
          And if the "matchmaker" cheats, do not let her on the doorstep.

            Of course, these companies simply tricked the rating agencies into providing false information. After that, changes were made in the rating agencies and the information began to be collected from a much larger number of sources.

        Please explain how the expulsion of a rating agency from Russia will prevent him from publishing his assessments and forecasts of the situation in Russia.
        Well, they will have to close their branches in Russia, well, they will publish reports, for example, in the USA, in English, and they won’t do anything for it. For example, the UN Special Rapporteur on Belarus is suddenly a non grata person in the Republic of Belarus, and accordingly, he has never visited the country. But this does not prevent him from making regular reports, after each - the howling of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry. With rating agencies it will be the same.
        Z. S. I can’t prove the next phrase, so consider it as my personal version. It seems to me that most of the work on analysis and forecasting for Russia in such agencies is still done at the central office.

          3. The rating agency expresses its private opinion: do not want - do not believe. But experience (the son of difficult mistakes) suggests that there are 3-4 agencies in the world that most investors believe.

      Well, Western agencies do not have such a guarantee. And for trust, but not of yours, but of most investors, the trust of the Chinese - that is, the first economy of the world - will be enough. So here it is somehow.

I can understand a lot, however, a country with severe censorship and tightly controlled unanimity, where journalists are not only imprisoned, but also killed, where our channels are banned for political reasons, where lies are poured by Niagara Falls above Karl RF. I have long looked askance at these rating writers for a long time - this was the last straw.

                Standard & Poor's accused of cheating Australian investors


                Illinois attorney's office sues Standard & Poor's for defrauding investors


                According to the CalPERS lawsuit, the pension fund suffered losses in the amount of more than $ 1 billion as a result of "unfair actions" by rating agencies. CalPERS, in particular, claims to have bought long-term securities of Cheyne Finance LLC, Sigma Finance Inc and Stanfield Victoria Funding LLC for $ 1,3 billion.
                According to representatives of the fund, these companies were assigned unreasonably high credit ratings to these companies. As a result, since 2007, CalPERS began to incur losses when the value of securities of these companies began to fall in value. The amount of compensation that CalPERS intends to recover from rating agencies is not specified, reports the Associated Press.


                The financial crisis broke out in the United States largely due to the close relationship of companies with leading rating agencies - Moody's and Standard & Poor's. The latter covered the financial sector that was going into negative territory, maintaining the illusion that everything is in order for the companies they value


                Connecticut and "a number of other US states" are joining Ohio's lawsuit against the rating companies Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch for over-rating bonds, which caused Ohio's pension funds to suffer losses of $ 457 million.

              The external debt of the Russian Federation, according to the Central Bank, in January amounted to $ 599,5 billion - at the current rate, this is about 50% of the country's GDP. By itself, this figure is not considered critical, especially since modest 41,5 billion fall on public debt itself
              Thus, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation in the structure of external liabilities allocates the so-called “external debt of the public sector in an expanded definition”, which, in addition to state loans, includes foreign loans of “those banks and non-banking corporations in which the government and the central bank directly or indirectly own 50 and more interest in capital or control them in another way. "

              For example, on October 1, 2014, the external public debt in the expanded definition amounted to $ 351 billion - more than half of the total external debt at that time. This means that the lion's share of all foreign currency obligations was once assumed by the largest corporations with state participation, so this kind of debt cannot be called pure corporate.

              “The root of today's misfortune is the wrong decisions that led to structural distortions,” said Sergey Romanchuk, an analyst at Metallinvestbank. The private oil sector with foreign participation was replaced by the state with Russian participation at the expense of the state debt. It was a bad management decision. But at that time it was the cornerstone of the state’s economic policy. ”

              The main part of the debt is the debts of state corporations, Alik

              This is professionalism, rating agencies already said in the first quarter of last year. that China’s economy is overheating, the first fall began in October. Well, in December - January there was a collapse. Everything is correct. I would give them 9 agencies 0 for this prediction only applauded.

                  China issues debt
                  China's Ministry of Finance will continue to issue RMB government bonds in Hong Kong. This was confirmed today by the head of the department, Lou Jiwei, at a press conference at the annual session of the All-China People's Congress / NPC /.

                  At present, the Ministry of Finance has issued more than 100 billion yuan of this type of obligation in Xiangang, and the balance of operations with them is about 80 billion yuan, the minister said.

                  According to him, Hong Kong was chosen for the issue of GDO because: firstly, Hong Kong ranks first in terms of the use of RMB outside mainland China, and secondly, Hong Kong is part of the territory of our country, one of its two Special Administrative areas.

    When countries with a national debt exceeding GDP are assigned the highest ratings by the countries, this is clearly sewn with white thread. And there is no need to sing here that "the point is not in the national debt, but in the ability to service it," since they serve it exclusively with the printing press and the heating up of the situation around the world. As you can see, these factors of "service" in no way related to market economic.
    But these agencies have aroused alarm in the case - if a real competitor is obtained, then all their monopoly activities will collapse, there will be no more handouts from the country of states and large corporations. Have to work honestly, not by concepts.

    By the way in the subject. Who says our president has a rating of over 80%? The same agencies. 80% of how many respondents and where? Moscow and Peter is not Russia! This is part of her. Surveying by phone or on the Internet is all the same if I ask my friends to say how good I am. Which question will be the answer. Want to have more money? -Yes. Do you have them? -no. Rating - 0%

    I read a couple of dozen posts and quit. The question is much deeper understanding by everyone, including me. On the one hand, it is necessary to destroy the American monopoly on control of world finances and trade, and in this sense such a step is absolutely justified, but on the other hand, it must be understood that such actions are a real war, and there are no losses in a war. The cost of letters of credit, guarantees that provide foreign trade depends on the level of risks, which are assessed on the basis of ratings. If there is no rating, then that China, the same India and Brazil and all the rest (not to mention sworn partners) will tear up increased commissions and demand the maximum coverage of risks. And this is an increase in costs and loss of competitiveness. In order to radically turn the tide, it is necessary to involve as many countries as possible, which will be very difficult to do, I can’t even imagine what needs to be done, especially looking at how the Customs Union is developing. So far, for such sharp gestures, a little strength is not enough, but with what you need to start, you can no longer endure this pack of jackals.

    whether to make your own rating company on this principle, it will also serve as a pyramid! Means the total reform in the global financial system is in need, with which sticks financial strength will not be in the hands of several names of bankers, but the state or state! This is a complex discussion and problem, and here, for a few words, it is not a matter of comment! :)

    It has long been known that these "agencies" are dancing to the American tune. Iran has always been under sanctions and has a rating below the baseboard, and as the sanctions were lifted, everyone rushed like jackals to snatch a piece. Here you have the "ratings."

    Personally, I am glad that I am sincerely glad that I live at a time when all these fighters of the political front show their true face and the true purpose of their existence. Until now, they have positioned themselves as the truth as the only broadcasters of the right economy. It has long been clear to everyone that there is no economy here, pure politics. And first, let them comply with Russian law or go through the woods.

    Rating agencies are the weapons of lenders and politicians. Both of them are a lobbying element for the states and organizations for which they work.
    Of course they are needed, but can they be completely trusted, that’s the question? Now let's look from the other side. Russia at the state level is going to introduce a rule for international agencies that assign ratings on the so-called national rating scale. It is a brilliant position, but does Russia have sufficient economic potential so that its representatives become full participants in the European markets that it has swung at?

    Today, for the most part, we are borrowers, and although our credit history is impeccable, for bankers with impressive capital, we cannot claim equal rights, so our conditions are unacceptable to them today. Before dictating any conditions, Russia needs to outline a program of action and a course towards economic development, which our President has never mentioned before. This is rather suspicious, and first of all, not only for us, but also for our partners in the countries of the SCO and BRICS countries. Everything again, as you see, rests on the well-known question - Who are we and where are we going?

    To thank and predict this ungrateful business, it reminds me of one of the poems by Dimarg Uzoltseff that he wrote in May 2008 and is still relevant today:

    ***
    ".. Will it be worse?
    Or will it not?
    And worse - will it be?

    Will it be worse overall?
    Or is it still not?

    No, it won’t be worse.
    In principle, it should not be worse.
    But, nevertheless, if there is where,
    That, perhaps, will still be worse.

    Yes, in fact, it could be worse.
    And that means, most likely, will be.
    Conclusion: it will be worse.

    Well, what if it doesn't get any worse?
    Well, maybe it won’t.
    But if I take this for installation,
    That will definitely be worse.

    That is, in any case, it will be worse.

      I do not agree, this could be true if the investments came from the country where the agency is located. but it’s absolutely not, rating agencies are located in the USA and London. and Italy and Germany have always been the main investor in the Russian Federation - is your explanation?

        The EU and the United States can sway among themselves. But with regard to Russia and the position is one.

        It was a long time ago and it’s not true anymore, the Americans untied the buck from gold, but rating agencies do not remember this for a long time.

          In general, the default in Russia was one in 1998 under Yeltsin, and now the ruble has fallen due to sanctions against our country imposed by the USA and the EU.

            The authorities dropped the ruble in order to save gold reserves.

              So I wonder how the sanctions dropped the Ruble? And this is at Putin’s words that isolating Russia is not possible, is it when the second world economy is friends, is it with all the BRICS and so on? That is, the raw material model of the economy has nothing to do with ??

        Russia, as the successor to the USSR (unlike other republics), has not abandoned its debts and obligations. She pays them in good faith, and today by and large, there are no complaints against her. Moreover, Russia forgives debts to others, although this is not always justified. And what you described primarily concerns the population of the country, i.e. us, what does this have to do with the international obligations of the State? At the expense of rating agencies, my situation is twofold. Italy and Germany today are not independent states, and their ratings in relation to us cannot be considered completely objective, they are dictated by the interests of the allies, and the main one is the United States. Otherwise, my conclusions are correct, it is necessary to develop the economy - their main one.

          For this, our rating will be lowered. Because "terpily", with such it is necessary to tear, not give :).

    The fifth constitutional amendment is freedom of speech.

    The 5th amendment is not freedom of speech, it is “It states that a person accused of a crime is entitled to a due process of law, should not be held accountable twice for the same violation and should not be forced to testify against himself, and that the state“ has no right to seize private property without fair remuneration "

    Rating agencies earn by giving potential creditors debtor reliability ratings.
    Zhuvut, in fact, on his reputation. Fail - they will trust their ratings less, respectively, less sales.
    It is clear that if sanctions are imposed against a country and its access to cheap loans is blocked, the risk that some of the enterprises under sanctions or the entire country is growing. This is reflected in the ranking.
    How this legislation can be affected by the country being evaluated is a mystery.
    Hence the conclusion, the law is ordinary populism.
