Formerly known as Global Research & Risk Solutions

Fixed income research teams must navigate shifting rates, refinancing risks and credit dispersion while generating timely views across increasingly broad issuer universes. High-yield and distressed credits add further complexity through capital structures, covenant protection and recovery considerations.

Crisil Integral IQ supports investment-grade, high-yield, distressed, sovereign, structured and emerging-market credit across issuer research, credit modeling, relative-value analysis and ongoing coverage. Deep credit expertise and scalable global delivery help broker-dealers expand coverage, sharpen investment insights and respond faster to market and issuer developments.
