Financial rating
It differs according to the size of the company:
- VSEs with simplified financial statements (not subject to the same financial statement requirements).
- SME-Large company
The financial rating module automatically calculates the counterparty's rating on the basis of ten sub-contributions, and recommends a final rating.
Qualitative rating
The assessment of counterparty quality consists of filling in a qualitative questionnaire integrated into the tool covering specific criteria:
- Shareholding
- Political-economic environment
- Management
- Socio-environmental impact
- Customer and supplier relations
- Legal form
- Level of competitiveness
This assessment complements the financial rating and provides additional assessment criteria for the counterparty's risk profile.

- assess the quality of the collateral and its eligibility under the regulatory framework laid down by the BCEAO;
- calculate the collateral coverage ratio;
- provide the basis for calculating the marginal consumption of equity for the loan granted.
