Moody’s Analytics Expands Credit Risk Solutions to Specialized Asset Classes
14.10.2020 15:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Moody’s Analytics has enhanced its award-winning suite of risk models with new scorecards for assessing the creditworthiness of certain asset classes, such as non-banking financial institutions and project finance transactions.
Over the last few years, an increasing share of credit has been sourced by alternative lenders and specialized funding vehicles. These providers are now facing uncertain funding conditions and increased liquidity risks as the impact of the COVID-19 downturn reverberates across the global economy.
The RiskCalc™ Scorecard Suite is designed to help credit professionals measure the default risk of these niche asset classes and adopt forward-looking views of risk, including for CECL and IFRS 9 purposes. Clients can use the scorecards as standalone models, as an input to internal scoring, or as a benchmarking tool.
“Our new scorecards enable credit and investment professionals to focus on results, and not be bogged down in time-consuming modeling processes,” said Nihil Patel, Managing Director at Moody’s Analytics. “This offering reinforces our commitment to helping customers make better decisions with clear and consistent metrics across their portfolios.”
The Scorecard Suite is the latest addition to our probability of default (PD) scoring solutions, which offer a comprehensive approach to assessing the credit risk of private and public firms by generating a forward-looking PD or EDF™ (Expected Default Frequency) calculation, loss given default, and expected loss credit measures.

Dalton Maag Launches Radically Simplified Font Licensing Model2.3.2026 15:00:00 EET | Press release
Dalton Maag, the independent typeface design studio, today launched a comprehensive overhaul of its retail font licensing structure, consolidating complex rights into four licence types. The new model aims to eliminate ‘licence anxiety’ for creatives and businesses by replacing narrow, technical restrictions with broad, generous permissions. For many years, the font industry has been defined by confusing bundling practices and legal traps. Whether a licence is too granular – forcing buyers to make too many small decisions – or too restrictive – blocking reasonable use – the result is the same: obstacles that hinder rather than enable creativity and communication. Dalton Maag’s new licensing structure directly addresses these challenges. “We’ve seen font licensing become harder to understand and easier to get wrong,” said Lukas Paltram, Executive Creative Director at Dalton Maag. “Our goal was to make licensing as simple as it can be without sacrificing fairness. Designers should be abl
