American Marconi Wireless News - CreditRiskMonitor.com Recognized by Spend Matters Fall 2025 SolutionMap

In October, we released our proprietary FAST Rating, which provides financial risk evaluations on 3.5+ million foreign private companies with limited financial data. The FAST Rating is modeled after the collective intelligence of our expert financial analyst team. The approach leverages Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), a type of machine learning. Additionally, we introduced Risk Level, which provides high, medium, or low risk classifications on 10+ million public and private companies worldwide. Our clients use the Risk Level to easily compare different companies globally, simplify reporting, and accelerate their business decisions.

We continue to rank well across Risk Management TPRM/SCRM (third-party risk management and supply chain risk management) category with a focus on financial risk, solidifying SupplyChainMonitor^™'s place as a leading point solution for such use cases. We earned a top rank in Supplier Risk Management, in addition to above benchmark rankings in the Supplier Performance Management and Analytics categories. By expanding the businesses covered with our financial risk analytics in 2025, including new ratings on millions of private companies, we're providing clients with the depth and breadth required to easily monitor their suppliers.

Spend Matters' SolutionMap is a trusted industry resource that allows practitioners, consultants and investors to evaluate and compare procurement technology solutions based on feature sets and customer satisfaction metrics. The platform enables businesses to make informed decisions through data-driven comparison of leading solutions.

Commenting on the acknowledgment, Mike Flum, CEO & President of CreditRiskMonitor.com, highlighted his appreciation for this continued recognition:

"We are glad to be recognized again by Spend Matters in Third Party Risk Management with an emphasis on financial risk reporting and analytics. The recent and significant increase in vendor bankruptcies, particularly in the manufacturing sector, has underlined the importance of having an accurate and timely early warning system to monitor business financial risk for our clients. Macro factors including interest rates, cost inflation, tariffs, and generally high corporate debt levels continue to point at increased bankruptcy risk across sectors. We've also seen a swath of adverse events on specific suppliers leading to disruptions. Leading organizations recognize that proactive monitoring of supplier financial risk is critical to maintaining supplier continuity. SupplyChainMonitor^™'s AI-driven financial risk models, advanced alerting, and holistic risk management capabilities support early identification of threats, so our clients can implement contingency planning and risk mitigation strategies before operational issues become material."

Key Achievements

CreditRiskMonitor.com's SupplyChainMonitor^™platform exceeded competitive benchmarks in SXM (Supplier Risk Management), particularly in managing and mitigating supplier-related risks, while also meeting or nearing the top of industry benchmarks across categories.
