Moody’s Analytics Wins Best Credit Risk Solution Provider in Waters Rankings

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Moody’s Analytics has been voted Best Credit Risk Solution Provider in the 2020 Waters Rankings. Voters choose specific offerings from shortlisted firms to determine these annual rankings. For the fourth time in five years, the Moody’s Analytics RiskCalc™ solution received more votes than any other firm’s offering.

This industry-leading credit scoring platform allows clients to assess the default and recovery risk of private firms and financial institutions. They use RiskCalc models to generate forward-looking probability of default, loss given default, and expected loss credit measures.

“We appreciate the voters again selecting the RiskCalc solution,” said Nihil Patel, Managing Director at Moody’s Analytics. “We’re proud that it continues to hold such a prominent position in this space. It means that our clients are achieving their business goals and strengthening their credit and financial risk practices throughout the credit lifecycle.”

The RiskCalc solution is powered by the Moody’s Analytics Data Alliance, one of the world’s largest and most comprehensive data consortia. It now integrates with the Moody’s Analytics Credit Sentiment Score™ tool, so RiskCalc users can benefit from AI-powered media tracking and adverse credit signals from news articles.

Earlier this year, the RiskCalc solution completed a System and Organization Controls (SOC 1) Type 1 examination under the attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

This win in the Waters Rankings adds to our growing list of awards and industry accolades.
