Pro stress-test →

Moody's Corporation operates as an integrated risk assessment firm worldwide with two segments: Moody's Analytics and Moody's Investors Services. In 2024, revenue reached $7.09 billion, an increase of 19.81% compared to $5.92 billion the previous year.

Strategic Profile

Pro stress-test →

The Moody's Investors Service segment publishes credit ratings and provides assessment services on various debt obligations and entities. The Moody's Analytics segment offers credit research, credit models and analytics, economics data and models, and structured finance solutions alongside SaaS solutions for banking and insurance. Moody's and S&P Global face sector pressure from AI-driven fears, with MCO currently favored for its cleaner outlook and regulatory moat.

Competitive Landscape

Pro stress-test →

Moody's main competitors include S&P Global and Fitch Ratings, which together form the Big Three credit rating agencies. The company also competes with smaller rating agencies like DBRS owned by Morningstar, as well as financial data and analytics providers such as Bloomberg, FactSet, and MSCI. Moody's remains a global leader in credit ratings and analytics, but its current valuation above 36x P/E is historically elevated.
