GCD's Mission is to help banks understand and model credit risks. The comprehensive data pools are collected over a decade and distributed back to members for their own research and modelling.

GCD is a unique data consortium that owns banks internal data for both PD and LGD. GCD’s data pools support the key parameters of banks’ credit risk modelling: Probability of Default (PD), Loss Given Default (LGD), Exposure at Default (EAD).

GCD’s library gives access to wide variety of publications on risk related topics. Global Credit Data members work together to analyse the data and discuss methodology issues. GCD has published numerous papers and is actively promoting academic research on the data collected.

Access the Library 

Members not only benefit from exclusive rights and access to credit databases and analytics, but also from knowledge and research facilitation possible via the unique industry association.

Through a variety of forums such as workshops, webinars and surveys, GCD is an active industry participant facilitating the discussion in key strategic areas.

Global Credit Data collects raw data from its members and distributes it back to them for use in their own analysis and modelling. GCD supports its members by providing a flexible high-end tool on the data pool: the GCD Visual Analyzer. Member banks can create dynamic Reference Data Sets and generate instant views on the data.

Global Benchmarking Survey for Banks

Global Credit Data (GCD) and the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) have recently embarked on an important partnership aimed at enhancing ESG and climate risk efforts. This collaboration focuses on advancing the methodologies and benchmarks used by financial institutions to assess and manage climate risks.

Banks can now register to participate in the survey. Fill this form 

Survey will begin with participant banks.

Objectives of the project:

The collaboration will identify common credit risk assessment methodologies, provide a benchmark for modeling approaches for climate risk assessment used by financial institutions, and explore how the quantification of climate risks can be impacted by variations in assessment methodologies.

Value for Participants:

GCD and UNEP FI will publish a comprehensive report that benchmarks and compares the various credit risk modelling approaches used by financial institutions to assess climate risks.

This report will include overview of methodologies, information on data used, scenarios and models applied, variables and metrics selected, methodological comparisons, best practices, and the standardization of climate risk modeling practices across the financial sector. It will also provide insights into the progress financial institutions have made in their climate risk assessment approaches.

Key Sections of the Survey:

Climate-Related Credit Risk Assessment and Integration
Transition & Physical Risk specific focus
Collateral Value Adjustments
Sector-Specific focus
Scenario Analysis
ESG Scores
Data & IT
Quantitative Impact on Metrics like ECL, RWA, and ECAP
