In November 2008 RusRating introduced a supplementary no-charge service for banks interested in a rating from our agency.

Before signing a final rating contract we are prepared to conduct a free EXPRESS ANALYSIS that allows us to provide a preliminary estimate of the likely range of a bank’s credit rating, i.e. to identify the highest and lowest ratings it can expect to receive on the basis of detailed analysis (for example, between B+ and BB-, or between CCC and B-, etc.).

To request an express analysis:

1. send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it that includes

• a request to conduct an express analysis (no specific form is required);
• the full name and position of the responsible bank employee;
• contact information for that individual (telephone and e-mail address).

2. send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it providing the bank’s official reports and accounts for the past eighteen months, specifically forms:

• 101
• 134
• 135
• 102

All information received by RusRating for the purposes of conducting an express analysis will be treated as confidential and will not be distributed to third parties in any form.

For reference:
The minimum RusRating rating accepted by the Central Bank of Russia for the purpose of evaluating creditworthiness is ВВ-.
The minimum rating accepted by Vneshekonombank (VEB) is ВВВ-.
