Each company is given a Risk Score which is a value from 0 to 100 and indicates the level of risk of the company as determined by Experian. Low scores indicate high risk while higher scores indicate lower risk companies. For ease of use, Risk Scores are grouped into Risk Bands to make it easier to categorise companies. The following is the list of the Risk Bands categories, the Risk Scores each band covers and the average percentage of UK companies in each Risk Band.
