Gain a comprehensive and consistent view of your firm’s counter-party risk by combining financial
spreading, credit analysis and robust data storage using one flexible, secure enterprise platform. Be
confident you have the fundamental elements in place to dynamically build and deploy sophisticated internal rating models which exceed internal and regulatory requirements.
The Challenge: Dynamic, Transparent Internal Rating Systems
Today, banking regulators are demanding a shift from a credit review process contingent on the opinions of individuals
to a systematic process based on objective inputs and understood internal rating models that best predict default
events. This change, primarily driven by the need for more accurate, timely risk assessments, is critically dependent on
standardized financial and non-financial risk inputs. At the same time, regulators are requiring banks to document the
inputs and outputs of their internal ratings processes. The challenge of bringing this data together is further complicated
by the fact that bank portfolios are diverse, operating across many different credit types and geographies.
