MSCI Inc. and Moody's Corporation announced on April 21, 2025, a joint initiative to create a first-of-its-kind solution for independent risk assessments in private credit investments. This collaboration aims to bring greater transparency and consistent standards to the evolving private credit market.
The new solution will integrate Moody’s flagship EDF-X models with MSCI’s extensive private credit investment data, which includes information on over 2,800 private credit funds and more than 14,000 underlying companies. This combination will produce proprietary third-party risk assessments at the underlying company and facility level.
This partnership is crucial for investors seeking trusted independent assessments to benchmark credit risk and inform investment and portfolio monitoring decisions. It positions Moody's to capitalize on the rapid growth of private credit, which necessitates enhanced risk assessment tools.
