MORE Rating

The MORE model

More LogoThe Multi Objective Rating Evaluation (MORE) model is essentially used to assess the level of economic-financial quality of a given company by using financial statements data.

The idea underlying the MORE rating model is to analyze in detail a series of economic and financial indicators to assess the fundamentals of the company and assign accordingly the final rating as accurate as possible.

The MORE Methodology is used by modefinance as part of the process of issuance of Credit Ratings in compliance with Regulation (EC) N. 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 (the Credit Rating Agencies Regulation).

With effect from July 10th, 2015, modefinance srl is registered as a credit rating agency in accordance with Regulation (EC) N. 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 (the Credit Rating Agencies Regulation).

The vision of the MORE rating is to observe the economic and financial fundamentals of a company, evaluating every aspect of the analyzed company to determine the balance of the different characteristics. The main idea of the MORE evaluation is that the company must be balanced in each of its aspects: the better the economic and financial equilibrium, the better the rating.
