Version History
Design Decisions
The ratingAction attribute was positioned within the Rating element itself rather than the enclosing rated entity to support multiple independent rating actions
This design allows entities to have multiple ratings with different actions, such as upgrading a credit rating while maintaining an investment rating, providing more granular action tracking
RIXML Research Data Dictionary v2.5.1, p.66
Rating action should describe changes or restatements of ratings, not the ratings themselves
This separation allows tracking of rating changes and confirmations distinct from the actual rating values, supporting investment decision workflows
