Banks contributing their internal ratings to Credit Benchmark review the geographic credit risk of each entity and assign it a country of risk.
The country of risk is the most important country the entity is exposed to and is the most representative of its credit risk profile.
Credit Benchmark’s data processing algorithms use the country of risk information from each bank combined with external data to assign a consensus country of risk to each entity.
A broad range of international and large national banks contribute their internal risk ratings to Credit Benchmark. The resulting dataset comprises consensus credit ratings across 150 countries.
The map highlights countries where credit consensus ratings are available for the Credit Risk IQ universe.
Credit risk officers within banks, as part of their process for assigning internal ratings, assess various economic, industry, environmental, and political factors that can impact businesses differently across regions.
