Bonds are given ratings by several independent rating agencies to indicate their credit quality. A higher rated bond is seen as safer and its yield will usually decrease as its rating increases. A BAA rated bond is seen as adequately safe but changing economic conditions could cause the obligor to default on its financial commitments. Read more about bond ratings here and here.
