AA NEW/S4 rating

English to Spanish Bus/Financial Investment / Securities
The portfolio holds a AA NEW/S4 rating from Standard & Poor’s

Sé que Standard & Poor’s es una agencia calificadora y que otorga un rating o calificación a los fondos, según sus características (A, AA, etc.). También he visto que el S4 corresponde a los fondos que poseen una sensibilidad media-alta a los cambios en las condiciones de mercado... pero este NEW aquí me despista. ¿Se trata de que la calificación S4 es nueva?

El orden me sigue chocando �Hola, Pablo! La traducci�n de "nueva clasificaci�n crediticia AA /S4" me suena muy bien, pero, �por qu� no han dicho entonces "New AA S4 rating" y no como aparece m�s arriba?

AA (nuevo)/S4

El "new" no se refiere a un sistema nuevo de ratings sino a que el fondo en cuestión tiene menos de tres años de existencia.

S&P Fund Research Rating AA(new)* Funds less than 3 years old are not eligble for S&P star rankings

clasificación AA nueva/s4

Indicaría que AA no cambio y S4 es nueva.


The rating system developed by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service has four groups in the first category of bonds – investment bonds considered to be highly reliable (“AAA”, “AA” and “BBB”). Then there are five groups of the second category of bonds with the same structure. The probability of fulfilling the assumed responsibility by bond issuers are estimated at a lower level than with the investment bonds even in the favorable economic situation (“BB”, “B”, “CCC”, “CC” and “C”). Lately, additional “+” and “-” are used in the Standard & Poor’s, rating system, and “1” – in Moody’s system.

Standard & Poor's
volatility rating scale ranges from 'S1' (low
sensitivity) to 'S6' (highest sensitivity) and
provides a current assessment of a
fixed-income fund's sensitivity to changing
market conditions. Funds rated 'S2' possess
low to moderate sensitivity to changing market
conditions.
