The investment banking advisors for Anthropic and OpenAI are actively engaging with relevant institutions, with the aim of securing investment-grade credit ratings for these two companies following their Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). Such ratings would subsequently reduce borrowing costs for their ambitious AI infrastructure development projects. According to informed sources, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs have recently, on behalf of these two leading AI firms, initiated communications with credit rating agencies. Their objective is to facilitate access to the corporate bond market, a vast arena valued at up to $11.7 trillion, once the companies go public. Analysts from rating agencies have noted that the investment banks are confident that the IPOs of these two companies will unlock substantial liquidity and enhance their financial standing.
