What a credit rating means for a net lease buyer
A rating is an agency's opinion of a company's ability to pay its debts. S&P and Fitch call BBB- or higher investment grade; Moody's calls Baa3 or higher investment grade.
The rating only helps you if the rated company stands behind your lease. Many leases are signed by a franchisee or a subsidiary instead of the parent.

Frequently asked questions
Is KFC investment grade?
We have not yet verified KFC's rating against an agency source, so we do not state one.
Does a KFC rating cover every KFC lease?
No. Check who signs and guarantees each lease; a franchisee or subsidiary guaranty does not carry the parent rating.
