Reaffirmation of Investment Rating
Holy Family University President Sister Maureen McGarrity, CSFN, PhD, is pleased to announce that the University's public investment grade rating has been reaffirmed during an annual review by the Fitch Rating Agency. This review and determination by Fitch Ratings reinforces the strong foundation that has been established for financial stability, future growth, and development.
Fitch Ratings credit ratings provide an opinion on the relative ability of an entity to meet its financial commitments, such as interest and repayment of principal commitments on issued bonds. The Board of Trustees and Sister Maureen are grateful to all of those individuals whose diligence and hard work were essential to the success of the review and to the University community as a whole for their dedication in effecting the changes needed to sustain this rating. Accomplishments such as this clearly demonstrate our commitment to the mission and underscore once again the "value of family."
