Moody's just added a sitting insurance-services CEO to its board, a signal of where the $87 billion ratings and analytics firm wants its next growth read on risk data. First Form 3 filings like this one are the earliest public record of who is steering strategy from the inside.
Latest Activity
A collapse in leveraged finance ended five straight quarters of beats, with high yield transaction revenue down 40%. Both EPS and revenue missed expectations, yet management reaffirmed full-year adjusted EPS guidance of $16.50 to $17.00 and kept buying back stock.
