Credit rating agency

A credit rating agency is a company that rates the ability of a person or company to pay back a loan. The rating of a credit rating agency is important because it determines the interest rate that needed for a loan. This is because interests rates at present are not the same for anyone, but instead are based on risk based pricing, a form of price discrimination.
