An essential part of the country’s financial landscape, RAM Rating Services Berhad (“RAM Ratings”) plays a leading role in providing crucial and independent credit opinions that are needed by investors and other market participants, with a view to being more confident about their investment and financial decisions.

Incorporated in 1990 as the pioneer in the provision of credit-rating services for the Malaysian capital market, our rating portfolio encompasses a vast range of local and foreign corporates, multinationals, banks, insurance companies, government-linked and other public-financed entities, myriad complex investment vehicles and the ringgit-denominated securities they issue, structured-finance transactions backed by receivables or other financial assets, and Islamic securities (commonly known as sukuk).

As one of the region’s most experienced rating agencies, we are able to capitalise on our understanding of the market when arriving at astute credit evaluations. Underscored by our renown in the rating business, our credit assessments have been habitually used as points of reference by regulators, the financial community and the investment fraternity.

RAM Ratings is a public limited company, wholly owned by RAM Holdings Berhad. Our ultimate shareholders comprise major financial institutions in Malaysia, Asian Development Bank and Fitch Ratings.
