Further, KRM also provides the term structure of default probabilities that assists users in performing both "Point in Time" and "Through the Cycle" default probability analysis. Firstly, the Point in Time default probability enables users to detect signals in the early stage. "Through the Cycle default probability shows long term average risk for banks to assess the margin of long term loan." Additionally, in the latest KRIS module, the most extended maturity of the term structure of default probabilities is ten years, which makes the "Through the Cycle" default probability the most extended default probability maturity available in the market.
One of the critical differentiators of KRIS from other traditional rating services is that it incorporates the point-in-time macroeconomic drivers and business cycles, near real-time balance sheets, and financial ratios.
This also includes the public ratings of these counterparties, in addition to the near real-time factor attribution analysis, so that users can comprehend the key metrics that lead to counterparties' upgrades, downgrades, or deteriorating creditworthiness or defaults. Other than that, KRIS brings forth a real-time credit monitoring system that functions as an early warning system for detecting distressed and good counterparties before any malicious activities happen. Further, as the ratings profile can be benchmarked on the same screen across the sectors and the individual companies, users garner a fair idea of counterparties' risk profiles with regards to specific sectors or geographic location.
