The paper highlights the reputational damages suffered by major and minor rating agencies as a consequence of the subprime crisis. The analysis is based on a standard event standard methodology on a sample of 1821 announcements during the period November 2003 - November 2013. The evidence shows a lower market reaction to rating actions, especially when the evaluation is far away from the threshold between investment and speculative grade.

Abstract
The paper highlights the reputational damages suffered by major and minor rating agencies as a consequence of the subprime crisis. The analysis is based on a standard event standard methodology on a sample of 1821 announcements during the period November 2003 - November 2013. The evidence shows a lower market reaction to rating actions, especially when the evaluation is far away from the threshold between investment and speculative grade.
