ActionWhat it does
Check the watchlistCheck many banks and lenders at once: for each, whether LiquiLens has raised a warning, whether it needs urgent review, and how many disclosures are missing.
Get a bank's filing reviewGet the figures from a bank's latest reviewed filing: bad loans, capital adequacy, deposits, depositor concentration, provision coverage, and how they changed on the last quarter and year.
Get an institution's monitoring reviewGet LiquiLens's monitoring review of one bank or lender: the warnings raised (for example bad loans rising past an alert level), every figure on file with its change on a year earlier and its source, and the disclosures that are missing so you know what the review cannot see.
Get an institution's risk profileGet one bank or lender's failure-risk history from LiquiLens: health score, grade and chance of failing for every filing period on record, where it stands against the RBI's early-intervention thresholds, how stable its funding is, and whether its accounts show a red flag.
Get the failure risk boardGet LiquiLens's current failure-risk board for Indian banks and lenders: each institution with a recent enough filing, its health score, grade, risk tier (green, yellow, orange or red) and estimated chance of failing within 12, 24 and 36 months.
Get the historical track recordSee how well LiquiLens's screen has flagged past bank failures in India, the United States and Europe: how many institutions each study covers and how far ahead failures were flagged.
