Moody’s Investors Services confirmed the City of New Rochelle’s bond rating at Aa2, ensuring that the City can continue to take advantage of competitive financing rates for capital improvement projects at substantial savings to taxpayers. New Rochelle has maintained this rating since being upgraded to Aa2 from Aa3 in January 2017.
According to Moody’s, the sustained rating reflects the city's stable financial operations with healthy reserve levels, large sized tax base, average wealth levels for the region, and manageable debt burden.
“We are very pleased to have maintained our strong credit rating for the past six years,” said City Manager Kathleen Gill. “This is a result of the sound budgeting practices endorsed by the Mayor and City Council, and the ongoing commitment of all our departments to fiscal responsibility.”
Moody’s Investors Services is one of the world’s leading providers of independent credit ratings, research, risk analysis and financial information to the investment community. Moody’s release can be reviewed at moodys.com.
