Hi Bhupender
Answer is well started.
Mention the issues with Credit Rating like-
-Rating agencies rarely get credit quality right and they have been found to be well behind the curve in almost every default crisis.
-The behavior of these agencies has been pro-cyclical, which is often seen to aggravate crises and fuel bubbles.
Some good points but need to work on content.
Good conclusion.
