ARC Ratings

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep. It rates articles in Reuters, the Toronto Star, the French version of Huffington Post and Business Standard, plus at least a couple of pages in the book Credit Rating Governance: Global Credit Gatekeepers Clarityfiend (talk) 01:13, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Article fails WP:CORPDEPTH, for despite being cited in a number of well-regarded sources (per CAPTAIN RAJU), none of the articles concern the subject. Rather, they refer to the article subject in passing or concern the industry as a whole (excluding the Toronto Star article). As ARC Ratings is not particularity notable (despite claims) when compared to other credit rating companies, it fails WP:MILL.--SamHolt6 (talk) 04:17, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete -- a directory-entry on an unremarkable credit agency. Sources listed above lack WP:CORPDEPTH and there's nothing better available. K.e.coffman (talk) 22:31, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
