An external rating can be an important element for the full utilisation of all financing instruments on the credit and capital markets and thus give companies greater financial flexibility. After the VDT online event "External rating - curse or blessing?" in spring 2024 dealt with the basics of an external rating, this online event will focus on the relevance and implications of external ratings for common financing instruments. Practical examples will be used to test theory against reality. The experts from LBBW, Mr Martin Amann (MD, Head of Rating Advisory) and Mr Marcus Offenhuber (MD, Head of DCM & Securitisation), will report on theory and practice.

The presentation documents for this online event can be found here in the library.

We would like to thank all those involved for the successful realisation of the events and the participants for their positive feedback.
