In today’s post crisis economy, traditional methods of evaluating and managing credit risk between counterparties are lacking in their ability to accurately measuring current and future exposure.  Allegro 8 offers a robust credit risk management solution with the ability to accurately rate counterparty credit scores in a timely manner.

Credit 8.1

Allegro’s Credit 8.1 solution goes beyond the traditional method of analyzing current point-in-time or historical counterparty credit risk, providing the tools to evaluate and forecast a counterparty’s potential future credit exposure.  Real-time credit information can be captured and analyzed along with the ability to perform an in-depth analysis of counterparty liquidity. The result is a much more comprehensive and transparent view into your counterparty’s overall viability, allowing for a greatly enhanced credit risk management strategy and increased efficiency in managing counterparty credit exposure.
