Bangkok--Jan 26--TRIS RATING
TRIS Rating plans to launch its new product — Short Term Rating Service — within the next 1-2 months after additional market consultations and final touches to the system.
Dr. Warapatr Todhanakasem, President of TRIS Rating Co., Ltd., said that TRIS Rating engaged the services of Mr. Kenneth Pinkes, prior Chief Credit Officer of Moody's Investors Service, to finalize the development of its Short Term Rating System in January 2005. During his assignment, Mr. Pinkes worked actively with TRIS Rating management and its analyst team. TRIS Rating will announce the new system within the next 1-2 months.
Dr. Warapatr said key elements of the analytical approach will focus on many factors which are unique to the Thai capital market as well as the use of relevant tools from the international markets. Demand for TRIS Rating’s Short Term Ratings is expected to grow rapidly in line with increasing market sophistication and greater investor demand for well reasoned credit research. — End
