Hercules analytics — a new credit risk modeling toolkit

Transform credit risk modeling with drastic efficiency gains

Introducing Hercules Analytics 

Hercules Analytics is Oliver Wyman’s agentic AI solution designed to transform credit risk modeling. Built on a proven and flexible Python codebase, it automates the entire model development lifecycle — from data ingestion and analysis to calibration and documentation — while allowing effective human oversight through a no-code, natural language interface. The solution orchestrates end-to-end model creation, enabling faster updates and refinements with less manual effort.

By leveraging validated modeling methodologies and production-quality code deployed across multiple banks, Hercules Analytics produces near-final modeling packages, including regulatory documentation and production-ready code. Its embedded AI layer proactively detects anomalies, flags critical insights, and suggests mitigants, ensuring models meet regulatory standards. The human-in-the-loop approach empowers experienced modelers to steer the process effectively while minimizing risk.

With Hercules Analytics, organizations benefit from drastic efficiency gains, cutting full-time equivalent costs by 65% and reducing model development time from six to two months. The solution is scalable, compliant, and designed to accelerate innovation in credit risk modeling with immediate cost savings and minimal regulatory risk.

Accelerate credit risk modeling with Hercules Analytics

With Hercules Analytics, banks can rapidly update models, ensure accurate documentation, and strengthen governance. Its scalable platform delivers immediate savings and supports continuous monitoring and advanced AI-driven validation. The agentic AI layer orchestrates development, provides insights, and safely configures existing code without generating new code.
