For Ratings Agencies
DealCharts lists the rating agencies named on 509 CMBS deals, pulled straight from each deal's SEC filing, with a direct link back to the source.DealCharts shows which agencies rated a deal right on the deal page, sourced from the deal's own SEC filing — not a copy, not a summary.
DealCharts publishes the rating-agency party for CMBS deals, extracted from SEC EDGAR filings, with the agency list shown in the "Who's Involved" section of every deal page. For example, WFRBS 2012-C8 was rated by Moody's, Fitch, KBRA, and Morningstar — a real row pulled straight from the deal's disclosure. As of the current data snapshot, 509 CMBS deals carry a listed Rating Agencies party. Every name links back to the deal and its SEC filing. Free to read, no login, licensed CC-BY 4.0.
What DealCharts has for you
There's no dedicated agency page today (see below), so what follows is the per-deal data you can use right now, and how to work with it.
Every deal's rating-agency list, on the deal page
Open any CMBS deal and scroll to "Who's Involved" — it lists every counterparty role sourced from the deal's SEC filing, including the Rating Agencies party where one was disclosed. WFRBS 2012-C8 shows Moody's, Fitch, KBRA, and Morningstar side by side with the deal's trustee, servicers, and depositor.
How the agency mix breaks down
Across the 509 CMBS deals with a listed Rating Agencies party as of July 2026, most carry more than one rater. The most common combination is Moody's, Fitch, and KBRA together — 180 deals — followed by S&P Global, Fitch, and KBRA on 109 deals, and Moody's, Fitch, and Morningstar on 65. Two-agency and five-agency panels both appear, but a three-agency panel is the norm — and a handful of deals list only one, like MSBAM 2012-C6, rated by Moody's alone. In total, 509 of the site's 624 CMBS deals — roughly 82% — carry a listed Rating Agencies party; the rest predate the field or weren't captured from a filing form DealCharts currently parses.
Browse by shelf or vintage to spot-check coverage
There isn't a single page listing every deal a given agency rated yet (see below) — but you can browse toward that answer today. The WFRBS shelf page lists every deal issued under that shelf; the 2012 vintage page lists every CMBS deal priced that year. Open each deal from either list and check its party section for the agency mix. The same pattern works across every shelf and vintage DealCharts covers — 30 CMBS shelves, vintages back to 2006.
The filing behind the rating, one click away
Every deal page also carries a "Provenance & Documents" section linking the underlying SEC filings. On WFRBS 2012-C8, that includes the
Monthly Remittance Report filed 2022-08-29
. The rating-agency name on the page traces back to the same filing chain — not a third-party aggregation.
A concrete workflow
To check whether — and how — your agency shows up on a given deal, or across a shelf or vintage year, walk through the live pages in order:
- Open the CMBS browse hub.
- Open a deal, such as WFRBS 2012-C8.
- Read the "Who's Involved" section for the Rating Agencies entry and every other party named on the deal.
There is no per-agency rollup page today — no single "every deal Moody's rated" view. The data that would back one already exists as the per-deal Rating Agencies party; it just isn't aggregated by agency yet. If that view would be useful to you, tell Cairn below — it's a straightforward next dataset to build, not something we're claiming exists today.
