CreditRiskMonitor

CreditRiskMonitor is a financial risk analysis and news service for credit, supply chain and financial professionals. Corporate credit managers use our information to determine how much trade credit to extend to customers. Supply chain professionals use our information to assess and monitor the financial risks associated with their critical suppliers. Our extensive client base includes thousands of companies including over 35% of the Fortune 1000, whom we have serviced for 20 years. The patterns of activity of those clients on our web site as they monitor their customers and suppliers has been shown to be predictive of future financial stress. This crowd-sourced information has been incorporated into our own risk scores, improving their performance. We are now making the same crowd-sourced information available to the investment community, in an anonymized form.

Collection Methodology 
Our subscribers are credit, supply chain, and financial professionals from many of the largest companies in the world, and have access to risk-related information from many sources other than CreditRiskMonitor.  Our credit professionals are outside of SEC Regulation Fair Disclosure and therefore also are armed with non-public information. When a subscriber utilizes our service to assess the risk associated with a specific company, they use our highly structured, hierarchical web site to drill down into the detailed information available about that company.  We record that navigation in detail, in real time.  Daily, we anonymize and aggregate that navigation data to detect patterns that indicate the level of concern collectively implied by our subscribers' actions with regard to each subject company.

Known Biases 
Crowd-sourced Credit Manager Activity (CMA) scores have been back-tested only for U.S. and Canadian companies.  Consequently, we do not currently calculate CMA scores for companies outside the United States and Canada.
Granularity of Data 
Individual Businesses (publicly traded companies, public debt companies, large private companies who publish their financials)
Sectors / Companies 
The Scores dataset contains daily risk scores for approximately 38,000 companies, which includes nearly all public-traded companies worldwide, plus U.S. public debt companies and a number of large private companies who publish their financials.  The SubscriberActions dataset contains daily actions by anonymized subscribers for the specific subset of those companies (or their subsidiaries) that were of particular interest to our subscribers that day.  The number and composition of that subset varies daily (as our subscribers' concerns change), but averages about 2,000 distinct companies on any given business day.
