Difference between report types

This article breaks down the difference between Screening, Decisioning, Moniroting and Alerting reports on Wiserfunding

Wiserfunding's Screening and Decisioning are two fundamentally different product types that serve different purposes;

Wiserfunding Screening reports offer a concise overview designed for initial assessments, giving users key insights into an SME’s financial health, creditworthiness, and environmental impact. These reports are useful when you need a quick, high-level view of potential risks.

Wiserfunding Decisioning reports provide a deeper, more thorough analysis, incorporating long-term financial data, risk pricing, and detailed governance structures. This makes them ideal for informed, final decision-making when a comprehensive understanding of the business is required.

Wiserfunding Monitoring when enabled, Wiserfunding automatically runs reports within a portfolio, at user-defined intervals (1, 3, 6, or 12 months), helping users stay up-to-date with ongoing changes in an SME’s financial health and risk profile. This ensures continuous oversight and proactive risk management.

Wiserfunding Alerting notifies users of changes in an SME’s Probability of Default (PD) or Z-score, within a portfolio, based on user-defined thresholds. When an alert is triggered, users can view the alert and generate an Alerting report for detailed insights.
