Bloomberg’s Zane Van Dusen speaks to Dan Barnes of The Desk on the value of alternative sources of credit risk data beyond traditional credit ratings. In the interview, Zane highlights the powerful utility of Credit Benchmark’s Credit Consensus Ratings and descriptive analytics for assessing private credit risk.
“Credit Benchmark aggregates credit metrics from banks so any company that has exposure to a bank will be rated by the banks’ internal ratings process, which Credit Benchmark collects to build credit consensus ratings. That’s valuable because usually those banks have information that might not be publicly available about private companies.“
