Scoring vs. rating was the leading theme of Credit Scoring Forum II, which took place on February 2nd 2009 in Warsaw.

During the event scoring and rating were presented as methods of evaluating credit risk, differences and similarities between the two methods were shown, and the connections between the methods and their common elements were discussed. Of special interest was the comparison of statistical and fundamental methods of estimating company value presented by Moody’s.
