One dataset, every credit function

Credit Benchmark aggregates the internal credit views of 40+ contributing banks — including roughly half of the world's Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs) — into independent Credit Consensus Ratings on 125,000+ entities, most unrated by traditional agencies. Refreshed weekly and free of issuer-pays conflict, it gives every credit function — first line to second line, front office to risk — a common, external reference point no single institution could build alone.

Trusted by those who know risk

"Credit Benchmark has given us a clearer lens into how our peers assess credit risk—especially for unrated names. The ability to benchmark our internal views has significantly increased our confidence in risk rating decisions, and the data available is supporting our model development efforts. With these insights, we’re not just aligning to best practices—we’re also operating more efficiently."

Dale Clayton, (former) KeyBank Chief Credit Officer

“Credit Benchmark gives us an objective reference point in markets where data is scarce. It helps us test how well our models rank risk, supports more efficient credit debates, and gives us something credible to anchor decisions where previously there was very little to work with.”​

Roelof Sheppard, Head of Wholesale Credit Model Development, Standard Bank

“No one else does what you do. Credit Benchmark data makes my job easier.”​

“Where we use Credit Benchmark, it has incredible value. It gives us an unbiased view and helps us substantiate decisions with confidence — Credit Benchmark definitely earns its keep.”

JR Hume, Credit Executive, Rand Merchant Bank

“Credit Benchmark has become an important part of our credit-risk toolkit, helping us support a more structured credit framework across approval, due diligence, and monitoring workflows. The consensus view provides a credible benchmark for evaluating counterparties where traditional ratings may be limited or unavailable, helping support approval decisions, strengthen confidence among insurers and other transaction participants, and add timely context to our portfolio-, sector-, and counterparty-level monitoring discussions.”​

William Locke, Chief Risk Officer, eSecLending

“Credit Benchmark’s data has contributed directly to strengthening our ability to manage counterparty risk and enhancing internal reporting, leading to more confident, proactive risk decisions. We are able to more efficiently monitor various members and service providers.”​

Vladimir Levtsun, Acting Director, Financial Resilience Risk, CDCC​
