Global Credit Data collects raw data from its members and distributes it back to them for use in their own analysis and modelling. GCD supports its members by providing a flexible high-end tool on the data pool: the GCD Visual Analyzer. Member banks can create dynamic Reference Data Sets and generate instant views on the data.

“By banks, for banks”

Through the active participation of its Member banks, Global Credit Data provides an international forum for exploring the intricacies of credit risk management and sharing of best practice. The Association works on a ‘Give to Get’ basis: rather than “shareholders’ value”, the active participation of its Member-banks creates “membership value” for each one’s immediate benefit.
