English-Finnish translations for credit rating

• luottoluokitus
  Valtionvelan heikko luottoluokitus on näin ollen tehnyt mahdottomaksi saada lainaa velan maksamiseksi takaisin. The low public debt credit rating has made it impossible, therefore, to obtain loans to pay back the debt.
  Maalla pitäisi todennäköisesti olla hyvä luottoluokitus, eikä sen pitäisi aiheuttaa minkäänlaista luottoriskiä euroalueelle. The country ought probably to have a sound credit rating and ought not to constitute any credit risk for the eurozone as a whole.
  Tämä olisi Irlannille edullista, koska irlantilaisilla vakuudellisilla joukkovelkakirjoilla on korkein mahdollinen luottoluokitus. That would be advantageous from an Irish perspective because Irish covered bond issues have the highest credit rating.
