Moody’s Public Finance Housing Rating Methodology and Research Handbook

On May 3, Moody’s released the sixth edition of its Public Finance Housing Rating Methodology and Research Handbook.  This handbook provides a description of what factors Moody’s considers when determining ratings for state HFA and other public financing housing programs.  Moody’s notes that this is the first time this handbook has been published only in electronic form, which Moody’s hopes will allow it to be updated more regularly.
