Beyond CECL
Risk Grading Module
Credit Origination

Adopting CECL starts with credit origination. Collecting accurate and standardized data from borrowers at the point of credit origination benefits all downstream processes, including the calculation of loss allowances. To do this successfully, financial institutions must implement automation and digitization technology to streamline the credit assessment and origination process.

The CreditLens™ platform integrates with our award-winning ImpairmentStudio solution, eliminating the need for manual data entry and further improving your data integrity.

Stress Testing and Capital Planning

Even before completing your CECL adoption, your organization should consider how to plan and forecast with the new allowance accounting in place. Moody’s Analytics is helping many organizations do so by usingour credit risk models and economic scenarios. We also offer an automated framework with the ability to forecast CECL provisioning.

Moody's Analytics Capital Risk Analyzer combines economic, credit, and accounting know-how to help organizations evaluate strategic decisions based on financial and regulatory metrics for capital planning and stress testing (DFAST, EBA).
