AND REWARD
S&P Global Market Intelligence’s credit risk solutions help clients gain the full picture of their credit risk exposure. Its RiskGauge reports, for example, help build a detailed picture of a company’s credit risk. These comprehensive credit reports, applicable for more than 50 million public and private companies worldwide, including SMEs, are powered by dynamic analytical models and robust data.

Climate change has created a need to evaluate the impact of different climate-related scenarios on counterparties, investments and portfolios. To support these efforts, S&P Global Market Intelligence and US-based management consulting firm Oliver Wyman present Climate Credit Analytics, a climate scenario analysis and credit analytics model suite. These tools combine S&P Global Market Intelligence’s data resources and credit analytics capabilities with Oliver Wyman’s climate scenario and stress-testing expertise.

Its cutting-edge scores and probability of default (PD) analytical models and unrivalled data help clients quickly and easily measure the credit risk of rated, unrated, public and private companies across the globe. The expanded PD framework can help uncover hidden credit risk. It can measure the PD of any non-financial company using the country and industry in which the firm operates, and clearly see the distribution of the underlying scores that drive the risk assessment for the company. This innovative approach captures important credit risk drivers and is based on the firm’s PD Fundamentals Model, incorporating both financial and business risk dimensions to generate an overall PD score.

Credit assessment scorecards provide credit and investment management professionals with the essential tools to identify and manage potential default risks of private, publicly traded, rated and unrated companies and government entities, across a multitude of sectors. The scorecards enable ESG factors to be considered in credit risk analysis in a transparent and structured way, while working through the regular credit assessment process.
