In Russia, a national rating scale is used, with the highest rating being "AAA" and the lowest being "C". There is also a "D" rating, which indicates a default. The higher the rating, the more reliable the issuer and typically the lower the yield on its bonds. - **AAA bonds**: These are the most reliable bonds, issued by large systemically important companies, often with state participation. - **A- to AA+ bonds**: These are reliable bonds, often invested in by pension funds and other institutional investors. - **BBB- to BBB+ bonds**: This is a transitional category, including companies that may be sensitive to adverse market or economic events (e.g., an increase in the key interest rate). - **B- to BB+ bonds**: These are high-yield bonds (HY bonds) with higher risks and higher yields, typically issued by small or medium-sized businesses operating in risky sectors. - **CCC and D bonds**: These bonds are on the brink of default, carrying the highest risks.
