In an increasingly challenging financial environment, there is an ever-greater need for validating and monitoring credit risk models. Our market-leading model validation solutions cover retail as well as commercial asset classes, for both internally developed and third-party models.

Among our offerings is the cloud-based CAP™ solution. Powered by industry-leading Moody’s Analytics data and our wealth of risk modeling experience, the CAP solution lets firms tailor their models—both internal and third-party—to their own unique experience. Moody’s Analytics advisory services complement the CAP™ platform and all of our model validation offerings.

Earlier this year, we earned the Category Leader distinction in a Chartis Research report assessing 10 leading vendors’ model validation solutions. It compared their “completeness of offering” on seven criteria including model analytics/pricing, data input, and suitability. Moody’s Analytics was the only vendor to be recognized for offering “best in class capabilities” in all seven.

“We’re thrilled to be recognized for our model validation solutions,” said Anamaria Pieschacon, Senior Economist, Model Validation. “With these solutions and services, our clients can confidently use their validated models and improve their overall model governance, efficiently meeting regulatory and accounting standards while making better, more informed business decisions.”

Now in its 14th year, the RiskTech100® evaluates technology companies that provide risk and compliance solutions to financial institutions. Chartis analysts use a combination of sources to inform their decisions: user surveys, interviews with subject matter experts, customer reference checks, vendor briefings, and other third-party sources.

This win adds to our growing list of awards and industry accolades.
