"... John Rich says the scoring system can detect unusual investment opportunities. An improving score can point to a company with an improving risk profile. It also enables analyst to compile information on key groups that can be used to point to investment trends. ..." Maureen Murrill, Business writer/Journalist - BRW Magazine

We use proprietary ZETA® Credit Risk and Control software and scoring methodology together with other analitycal tools.
ZETA® is an objective methodology for quantifying risk based on various inputs from financial statements.
How is ZETA® Risk Control System (ZRCS) different from traditional Credit Analysis?
• Its emphasis is on objectivity.
• It uses a precise combination of quantifiable credit concepts.
• It focuses on the determinants of insolvency risk and how closely a company’s characteristics match those companies which have already failed.
• The resultant score is transparent and replicable by any person using ZRCS.
"A danger foreseen is half avoided"

The ZETA® Risk Control System allows investors and credit professionals to efficiently and objectively review the credit risk of their industrial company holdings. Data from companies’ financial statements are analyzed to provide trends and warning signals about financial health. For companies that eventually fail, the program generally provides early warning signals 3 to 5 years prior to bankruptcy. This enables investors and credit professionals to take the necessary steps to reduce losses and maximize returns.
The ZETA® Risk Control System can be used in conjunction with an existing review program to rate the relative exposure of investments. The analytical component of the system is a proven program used widely over the past twenty years by sophisticated financial institutions. The program distinguishes viable companies from those which are less likely to meet their financial obligations as they become due.
ZRCS Enterprise is an enterprise strength Windows product that provides users a corporate credit evaluation solution. ZRCS uses an internal spreadsheet or external data to collect financial statement data on corporate customers. ZRCS accesses the
financial statement data, prepares credit ratings, provides a variety of reports and stores the data (including a copy of the input spreadsheet) for each company. ZRCS is complemented by a database of public company ZETA® ratings (which eliminates the need to spread the data for those companies).

# Government Agencies – NSW Treasury, NSW RTA, NSW STA, Human Services Victoria, Department of Defence; and
