Credit Benchmark

Credit Benchmark provides Credit Consensus Ratings and Analytics based on contributed risk views from 40+ of the world's leading financial institutions, almost half of which are GSIBs, domiciled in the US, Continental Europe, Switzerland, UK, Japan, Canada, Australia and South Africa. The risk views are collected, aggregated, and anonymized to provide an independent, real-world perspective of credit risk, delivered twice monthly to our partners. Credit Consensus Ratings and Analytics are available on 80,000 corporate, financial, fund and sovereign entities globally, most of which are unrated by credit rating agencies. Credit Benchmark also produces 1,200 credit indices, which help risk practitioners better understand industry and sector macro trends. Risk professionals at banks, insurance companies, asset managers and other firms use the data to gain visibility on entities without a public rating, inform risk sharing transactions (CRT / SRT), monitor and be alerted to changes within the portfolio, benchmark, assess and analyze trends, and fulfil regulatory requirements and capital.
