Live Demo Webinar: Credit Benchmark for Banks – A Live Demo Across the Lines of Defence

Register Here

Overview

From origination and credit approval through to portfolio monitoring, model validation and regulatory dialogue, banks face credit risk decisions across multiple functions and lines of defence — often with limited visibility into how their assessments compare to the broader market.

Join Marco Perea, Head of Banking, Americas, for a 30-minute live demo exploring how Credit Benchmark’s consensus data supports banking teams across the full credit risk lifecycle. Using the Credit Benchmark web app, Marco will walk through how the same underlying dataset — aggregated from 40+ global banks — can be applied to real use cases across first and second line functions, portfolio management and beyond.

 

Agenda

• What Credit Benchmark data is and how it’s built — a brief overview of how bank-contributed consensus PDs are constructed, what they represent, and what the 125,000+ entity universe covers
• First Line of Defence (1LOD) — how origination, underwriting and credit approval teams use consensus data to validate deal-level risk assessments, benchmark counterparties, and strengthen credit decisions at the point of origination
• Second Line of Defence (2LOD) — how risk management, model validation and independent credit review teams use consensus PDs as an objective external reference point to challenge internal ratings, identify bias, and support regulatory dialogue
• Portfolio management — monitoring credit quality migration across the loan book, identifying concentrations and deteriorating names early, and integrating consensus data into watchlist and renewal processes
• Live web app walkthrough — entity search, portfolio upload and monitoring, sector aggregates, and how teams navigate the platform day-to-day
• Q&A — bring your questions; we’ll answer them live
