Credit Benchmark provides a data-driven view of credit risk, offering coverage, detail, and collective insight available nowhere else. First, we collect the entity-level credit risk views of the world’s leading financial institutions. Next, we map, cleanse, anonymize and aggregate these raw contributions to create a ‘credit consensus’, delivered to our clients every two weeks.
The resulting Credit Consensus Ratings, Indices & Analytics are an entirely unique product backed by real-world market sentiment. Rather than the 'issuer pay model', it represents the views of those with 'skin in the game'.

Complex risk decisions are supported by easy access to 100,000+ Credit Consensus Ratings, 130,000+ bond and loan rating assessments, 1,200+ sector indices, and a suite of in-depth analytics - available via Web App, Excel add-in, API, flat-file download, and partner channels including Bloomberg.
