2025 marks 40 years since Moody’s first established its presence in APAC.
For over four decades, we have empowered customers with data, insights and innovative technologies to navigate risk. Beyond financial markets, we remain committed to supporting local communities and fostering inclusive, sustainable growth across the region.
Our rich heritage serves as our strong foundation to continue empowering market participants to decode risk and unlock opportunity.
The credit rating legacy of Moody’s Ratings has been the cornerstone of Moody’s mission in APAC. Since opening our first APAC office in Tokyo in 1985, we have supported the region’s issuers, investors and intermediaries with independent credit ratings and research, leveraging our global expertise and local insights to help them navigate market volatility.
Moody’s Ratings strives to be the rating agency of choice in APAC and globally. Our ratings and research empower issuers to create timely, go-to-market debt strategies to tap deeper sources of funding and provide global investors with unique insights into APAC markets.
