BBB |
Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Acronyms, Wikipedia | 0.07 sec. |
BBB A credit rating used by the S&P and Fitch credit agencies for long-term bonds and some other investments. It is equivalent to the Baa2 rating used by Moody's. A BBB rating represents a relatively low-risk bond or investment; banks are allowed to invest in BBB rated bonds. However, it is toward the bottom of investment-grade bond ratings, being only two grades above junk bond ratings. Risk-averse investors must therefore exercise caution on BBB investments, especially if the rating was recently downgraded. How to thank TFD for its existence?
