What exactly is Wikirating?
Wikirating is a global independent organization for credit rating topics. It offers an open web platform which gives the possibility to publish on the one hand credit ratings for countries, corporations, cryptoassets and other financial products. On the other hand Wikirating shows also the calculation methods on how credit ratings are estimated. In a way it is an “open rating agency”.
Wikirating – yet another encyclopedia?
No, not at all! Wikirating is not an encyclopedia like Wikipedia. It is a platform which allows to place/add rating relevant collections of archives (especially statistical data) for countries, corporations, cryptoassets and structured finance products.
