The Credit Rating Game: Evidence from a Strategic Game Model
This paper empirically analyzes the effect of competition on rating quality under the "issuerpay" compensation scheme. Using hand-collected data of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), we specify the competition among credit rating agencies with a discrete game framework and test its influence on the rating quality. We find that competition raised the probability of choosing lenient rating b...
