Mission
SAR’s mission is to provide credit rating services for corporates, sovereign governments, and regional and municipal government issuers (with a special interest in developing countries, particularly in the African continent) to ensure that investors are provided with an informed analysis of the risk associated with rated entities and financial securities. It also aims to monitor and report to issuers the effectiveness of policy on credit rating fundamentals to foster economic growth, activity, and development.
SAR's mission is to act as a catalyst for economic transformation and growth in BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) and other Global South countries. We firmly believe in the untapped potential of these nations and are dedicated to providing comprehensive and actionable rating services that stimulate economic performance.
For sovereign ratings, SAR’s point of departure is to factor in the structural nature of developing markets in its process to ensure fair and unbiased ratings. This includes consideration for resource endowments and reforms that the countries we rate implement, not only for their own betterment but to strengthen their ability to meet their financial commitments.
