Overall results of the check
The Company custom check generates a Credit sentiment score for an organization by examining the negative news articles and giving them a daily score. The check lists the information used to run the check and then shows the summary of the results. The score is provided on a scale from 0 to 100, where the higher the score is, the more negative current news about the company there is.
The Financial health sentiment risk check categorizes news into five categories, assigning each a different weight of importance for the overall score. This means that the more weight the category has, the more important it is to the overall result.
Bankruptcy/insolvency has a score weight of 100.
Default/missed payment has a score weight of 75.
Credit rating downgrade has a score weight of 30.
Profit warning has a score weight of 20.
Compliance issue has a score weight of 2.5.
The Financial health sentiment risk score ratings are divided into four categories:
Weak if the score is between 0 and 2.
Moderate if the score is between 3 and 4.
Strong if the score is between 5 and 14.
Severe if the score is between 15 and 100.
