A credit rating assesses the credit worthiness of an individual, corporation, or even a country.Typically, a credit rating tells a lender or investor the probability of the subject being able to pay back a loan. Having a poor credit history can make it very difficult for someone to get approved for a loan.

Track record

idea posted by Varun Sood Associate, JP MorganChase
I feel track record has the most significant impact on your score is whether you have paid past accounts on or before the date the payment was due.

Length of credit history

idea posted by Satish Pandey Sr. Associate, IL&FS Venture Corporation

Well to determine your credit score the length of your credit history is important as it can act as a base to rate your credit. The longer a customer has (had) credit with the same financial institution, higher the rating will be.

Type of Credit

idea posted by Santosh Bhosle Associate, IFCI
Length and track record of your credit do matter but the type of credit you have also determines your credit score, if a customer has a mix of revolving credit, installment credit, credit card, car loan will have an higher rating.

Bankruptcy

idea posted by Alok Kumar Singh Sr. Associate, UBS
Bankruptcy is a very derogatory mark which will cause your credit rating to fall and it can stay in your credit history for a longer period.
