Evals & guardrails

  • Trigger precision tracked; a missed covenant breach is a control failure.
  • Early-warning flags above a severity band route to the chief-credit agent.
  • Every flag ships with cited evidence and the breached covenant clause.

Frontier edge

  • Proactive / anticipatory: predicts which borrowers are drifting toward a breach from leading indicators and flags before the covenant test date, not after.
  • Self-improving fleet: early-warning patterns learned on one borrower cohort propagate across the monitoring swarm between runs.
  • Causal reasoning: counterfactual analysis separating genuine credit deterioration from seasonal or one-off noise before it escalates.

A sample run

Trigger Quarterly financials post for a borrower; leverage covenant looks tight.
  1. 1Recompute the leverage and coverage covenants from the filing.
  2. 2Compare against the facility's covenant levels and headroom history.
  3. 3Pull recent rating actions and adverse media.
  4. 4Assemble an early-warning packet if headroom is breached or thin.
Output An early-warning flag with the breached covenant, the trend and cited evidence … escalated to the chief-credit agent; clean borrowers logged and skipped.
