Once upon a time, deciding whether to lend to a business or individual meant looking into their past. Did they repay previous loans in full and on time? How much money did they have coming in recently? But things have changed.

Credit risk refers to the chance of a borrower failing to pay off debt in the agreed time, or at all. In other words, it means the risk of a borrower defaulting. There are many different types of credit risk, but key ones include: default risk (the chance of a borrower being unable to repay the full amount); concentration risk (the risk of default within a group of borrowers, for example, those in a particular industry).
Credit risk management is important to a business to reduce the chance of financial loss and reputational damage when customers fail to pay off their debts.
Banks can reduce credit risk by using data to find out the chance of existing and potential customers failing to repay their debts.
