SINTESI is a platform that links to financial statements archives stored in the CeBi System. It enables simulations to be run on projected scenarios for the financial figures of any company, including startups. The data processing can be based on either sector forecasts provided by Cerved or your own projections or assumptions, which means that you can create numerous alternative scenarios (best-case, worst-case, stress scenarios and so forth) grounded in assumptions about key economic, operational and financial drivers. The platform has several different features including the ability to use sector forecasts to scale various scenarios over different time frames. As is the case for the CeBi System financial statements archives, a financial score is calculated for each year in the simulated scenario.
Our algorithm automatically creates baseline scenarios, fed by a series of established projected data, which can be modified. Following simulations of future net financial positions, for each year in the scenario time frame, analysts indicate ways of covering financial requirements or of using surplus funds. In addition to its usefulness as an excellent business plan evaluation tool, this platform takes on heightened importance following the imminent introduction of the new IFRS 9 accounting standard for forward-looking assessments in future credit risk estimates.
