Ship benchmarking and comparison reports
With access to a huge amount of vessel condition grade data, gathered over many years by our unique digital inspection framework, we offer our clients unique bench-marking tools, analytics and reports which are not available anywhere else in the market.
Using our proprietary data, our customers can benchmark the condition of their vessels and the performance of their technical managers, against a wide market data-set.
Leading banks, funds, lessors and financiers use our comparison reports to undertake comparisons of vessel condition and management in order to determine how vessels are ranked in relation to their peers.
We also provide comparison analysis of ship managers' performance and quality, compared against the rest of the market data, which allows our clients to compare the performance and quality of their chosen ship managers against the rest of the market, using a unique set of metrics, available only through Idwal.
Portfolio monitoring services
Idwal offers a range of comprehensive portfolio management services which have been developed and implemented alongside leading banks, leasing-companies and financial institutions worldwide.
An outsourced portfolio monitoring function provides our customers a structured technical support function, backed by innovative platform technology to deliver unrivalled clarity in respect of ongoing portfolio risk and technical-integrity of diverse fleets of vessels.
Our unique Vessel Risk Assessment calculator supports our clients in understanding and interpreting complex technical matters which may arise from time to time in association with building a portfolio of maritime investments. Using a combination of proprietary data held exclusively by Idwal as well as publicly available data sources, industry best practice and in-house technical expertise - as well as physical inspection data, where available.
Leading banks, financial institutions and lending platforms use our portfolio monitoring tools and crucially are able to adjust their own risk parameters at the outset, ensuring that the level of risk monitoring is applicable to the risk appetite of their business.
We help ensure that new deals are robustly assessed and evaluated at origination and ensure that existing collateral and asset-integrity/value is maintained and risk-managed throughout the term of the financing.
Supported with leading data visualisation and instant access to portfolio monitoring tools, we can also track vessel movements, port state control deficiencies and detentions, arrests, incidents, classification statuses and more.
