CIBIL to launch risk index to help banks


CIBIL to launch risk index to help banks
Credit Information Bureau (India) Ltd (CIBIL) is planning to introduce a “Risk Index” that will help the country’s banks in making quicker decisions on extending loans to corporates and business houses. Banks would soon be in a position to ascertain the ability of a company to service its loan by looking at its position in the index.
The Risk Index will be in the form of a score ranging from 300 to 900 and will give a quick snapshot of the credit history of the respective companies.
CIBIL managing director Arun Thukral said. The “Risk Index” provides information of the risk profile of the company and individual borrowers on the basis of their trade data and balance sheets. This Information will helpful to financial institutions and banks to take decisions in respect of credit cards and home loans. “Any individual with over 750 score can be considered as good,”
