FRAbyFRA | Think of credit quality in the context of a bond. If the bond issuer has low credit quality, it becomes more likely that coupon payments won't be made. The same applies to rent payments from commercial property tennants, which provide the "fixed income" portion of the property's return. |

I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
