Identifying Default Risk in Challenging Credit Markets

Widening spreads and elevated volatility since mid-February have dramatically increased pressure in global credit markets. In the face of an economic downturn and continuing COVID-19 concerns, it is essential that corporations are able to identify signs of distress that may impact a borrower's capacity to repay debt or a customer or supplier's capacity to meet their obligations. Join Bloomberg and experts from FIS and the Association of Corporate Treasurers (Singapore) for a discussion of the importance of surveilling the recent trend of increasing defaults, and how corporations can better manage risk through automation.
