Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and its parent, McGraw Hill Financial Inc. (MHFI), were sued by New Jersey for allegedly failing to give objective ratings to mortgage-backed securities, the state’s attorney general said.

Standard & Poor’s harmed New Jersey consumers with claims that its ratings of the securities were independent when they were in fact driven by the company’s sales goals, the attorney general said today in a statement.
