Hong Kong, 2 May 2025, China Chengxin (Asia Pacific) Credit Ratings Company Limited (“CCXAP”) proposes to introduce a new methodology for assessing the credit quality of investments within a bond fund (“BF”). CCXAP does not have any existing rated funds that match the scope of application of the rating methodology for bond funds. The adoption of this methodology is not expected to result in any rating changes.
In this request for comment, CCXAP invites interested market participants to submit written comments on the proposed rating methodology by 2 June 2025 on the Request for Comment page or via email at info@ccxap.com.
