Monkeys,
does anyone happen to have a credit rating model that i could get my hands on? I'd like to see how the big rating agencies actually rate companies and how IBs try to predict the ratings so i'd appreciate any hints on where I could find a working model. something like macabacus would be great but i could not find anything online. if you don't wanna share it publicly please just PM me. thx.

My internship just ended so I no longer have access, but Moody's made available to everyone who had the basic subscription their methodologies for rating companies within different industries (I think they had something like 50-60 different industries).
Here is a link to an old one for life insurers. The newly published one assign weighting to each factor.

For S&P you had to pay extra for that (so I was not able to use S&P).
If you create a (free, Im pretty sure it is) account on Moodys.com you can browse their ratings methodologies documents which are sorted by industry/region.
Its basically a 20-75 page document that talks in depth about the industry and various factors impacting a firm's creditworthiness and position within that market. They then go on to outline their methodology for rating the firm. So they'll basically give you a pretty thorough outline of how they come up with their ratings. That should be just about all you need to create your own credit rating model based on Moody's methodology. Which, IMO, is a much better learning tool/experience as it will make you actually think about what you're doing and create a model based on the methodology to come up with a reasonable result. You can also compare your result with the current corporate rating Moody's prescribes to a given firm to see how close you are.

Thanks for the heads up about Moody's being free.
Here is the page I was thinking about: http://v3.moodys.com/uploadpage/Credit%20Policy/index.pdf

investment credit rating modeling (Originally Posted: 08/17/2017)
I am seeking some advice as to the software to use for developing a financial model that mirror those of investment banks to determine risk ratings and to make decisions for alternative financing of sustainable energy projects, essentially a risk rating tool. While normally I would approach this perhaps using Excel, I am wondering if another software platform may be better in terms of user interface/user friendly that would offer default assumptions but also allow the user to input other non-default assumptions. There may be multiple users of the tool, implying the need to access the tool perhaps as a web-based tool that may be hosted in the cloud and the tool could generate output reports in Excel. Any guidance you provide is greatly appreciated.
