The CreditorWatch Business Risk Index - Webinar

by admin

25 May 2022, 10.30am To 11.30am

The CreditorWatch Business Risk Index is a new economic indicator that provides valuable insights into the health of Australian businesses by region and industry. It provides an accurate and forward-looking picture of the current credit risk exposure of Australian businesses. As a measure of the financial health of businesses, it is ultimately also an important barometer of the wellbeing of the entire economy.

Driven by unique data sources which are leading indicators of insolvency risk, the index is a dynamic measure of stress for businesses, including:

• Geo demographic risk – a geographical ranking of future insolvency risk for more than 300 regions in Australia.
• National average probability of default (PD) – an early indicator of the insolvency risk of Australian businesses.
• National trade receivables growth – an indicator of business trade receivables and cash flow activity. This is a key measure of the overall health of the Australian economy.

Tune into this webinar to hear Creditorwatch CEO, Patrick Coghaln and Chief Economist, Anneke Thompson provide expert insight on what their April Business Risk index results mean for members and the wider financial services industry.
