Series 50: Credit Risk

Taken from our Series 50 Online Guide

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that an issuer’s perceived or actual creditworthiness will drop, causing a reduction in demand for the bond and a fall in its price. In a worst-case scenario, the issuer will default. A bond’s credit risk is evaluated and graded by the credit rating agencies Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, and Moody’s. Credit risk is nonsystematic risk.

I passed the Series 50 on the first attempt thanks to Solomon's materials. Although the questions on the exam were much more difficult and complex in structure and format than the Solomon practice exams, the study materials & practice exams did enforce the concepts that the actual exam was testing. Thank you Solomon!!!

I just passed the Series 50 exam! Yay! The Solomon Exam Prep materials are excellent. I utilized the guide book, on-line lecture, on-line course, on-line study guide and quizzes. The "Ask the Professor" feature was very helpful as well. I highly recommend their resources.

I prepared for the Series 50 (Municipal Advisor) exam using your materials and was extremely satisfied. Having the materials in multiple written and audio formats provided a lot of flexibility in where and when I could study. The scope of the Series 50 exam is so broad that even very experienced individuals would benefit by this type of preparatory course. I highly recommend this product.

Five decades in the muni business didn't guarantee I'd pass the Series 50 pilot exam. (Just knowing content doesn’t mean you are ready for the test.) Thankfully, my Solomon Exam Prep materials were fantastic at teaching complex subject matter in a way that made the answers clear, and I passed the test with ease.

If you plan to take the Series 50 exam, then I strongly recommend that you give yourself the edge that Solomon's study materials provide.

Many thanks to the fine staff at Solomon Exam Prep. I'm happy to report that I passed the Series 50 Municipal Advisor exam on my first attempt. The written material is extremely thorough and comprehensive. With respect to the online quizzes and final exams, the questions are very comparable in difficulty to the actual exam, thus providing the foundation for success. A special word of thanks to Carson for his encouragement and support.

Your study material laid a great foundation in my understanding of the tested material and was instrumental in my passing the Series 50.
