DBRS Closes Comment Period on Two Corporate Finance Methodologies

DBRS Limited (DBRS) today announces the closing of the comment period on two corporate finance methodologies. On March 16, 2017, DBRS requested comments on the following two methodologies:

(1) “Rating Companies in the Canadian Grain Handling Industry,” and
(2) A new appendix for timeshare operators attached to the “General Corporate Methodology.”

In the case of the second methodology, only the appendix addressing timeshare operators is new; the front section and all other appendices remain the same.

The comment period ended on April 17, 2017. No comments were received; therefore, the methodologies published on March 16, 2017, are now in final form.
