THE PURPOSE
One bond.
Several useful lenses.
A rating is only one part of a bond decision. BondScope is being developed to examine fair value, expected return, interest-rate sensitivity, credit risk and the assumptions that connect them.
A CONSISTENT FRAMEWORK
Read the return.
Understand the risk.
Expected risk
Bring rate exposure, default assumptions, recovery and liquidity into the same view.
Risk-adjusted value
Put modeled reward beside modeled risk and compare it with relevant Treasury yields.

Test a different
set of conditions.
Future reports are designed to show how rate changes, issuer performance and credit spreads can change a bond’s estimated price and risk-reward.

BondScope is an independent research project. Its modeled estimates are not credit ratings issued by S&P Global Ratings, Moody’s, Bloomberg, Morningstar, Oaktree or another rating provider. It is not investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell a security. Future reports will identify the data date, methods, assumptions and limitations.
