An important part of our financial planning toolbox is the Credit Scorecard.  Embedded in our financial plan models prepared for clients, we compare your own metrics against the published median benchmarks for Fitch Ratings’ AAA, AA, and A rated credits, and to S&P’s Strong, Avg., and Low indicators.  While not an official credit rating by any means, the Credit Scorecard allows you to quickly see how your utility enterprise stacks up against the benchmarks.  In this age of tight credit markets, we find that knowing how you compare before you go to market can be very valuable for any utility manager.  Contact us if you’d like to find out more about our Credit Scorecard.
