As long as debt is publicly traded, investors will need to know "will I get my money back?" and demand that that answer come from independent sources. Recent setbacks don't weaken that long-term trend, which continues to strengthen with the fundamental forces of globalization, technological advance, and increasing transparency in both rich-world and emerging economies.

Created when MCO was $38.91 | Edit | History
