Credit Benchmark data is available as a Snowflake data share, delivered into a dedicated, client-specific database that you query directly from your Snowflake account. No file transfer or ingestion pipeline is required — the data is live in your environment as soon as the share is provisioned.

​
Snowflake Marketplace

Open Credit Benchmark Credit Consensus Ratings in Snowflake Marketplace

The Snowflake Marketplace listing is the entry point for requesting or reviewing access to the Credit Benchmark data share from within Snowflake. A Credit Benchmark subscription is still required before the share can be provisioned to your account.

​
What You Get

  • A dedicated database containing the tables and views included in your subscription.
  • Data refreshed in line with Credit Benchmark’s standard publication cycle — no client-side jobs required.
  • The ability to join Credit Benchmark data against your proprietary datasets in Snowflake without copying it out.

​
Prerequisites

  • An active Snowflake account in any supported cloud and region.
  • A Credit Benchmark subscription that includes Snowflake delivery.
  • The Snowflake account identifier for the account that should receive the share. Snowflake supports both organisation-account identifiers and legacy account locator formats.
In Snowsight, your account identifier is shown under Admin → Accounts, or by running SELECT CURRENT_ORGANIZATION_NAME() || '-' || CURRENT_ACCOUNT_NAME();.

​
Getting Access

1

Contact your Credit Benchmark representative

Let your account manager know you want Snowflake delivery enabled. They will coordinate provisioning with the Credit Benchmark data team.
2

Provide your Snowflake account identifier

Send the account identifier of the Snowflake account that should receive the share. If you need the share delivered to multiple accounts (for example, a separate dev or UAT environment), provide each identifier.
3

Accept the inbound share

Once Credit Benchmark provisions the share, an ACCOUNTADMIN in your Snowflake account creates a database from it:
CREATE DATABASE credit_benchmark FROM SHARE <provider_account>.<share_name>;
GRANT IMPORTED PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE credit_benchmark TO ROLE <your_role>;
Credit Benchmark will provide the exact provider account and share name during onboarding.
4

Verify access

Query one of the views in the new database to confirm the share is live, for example:
SELECT * FROM credit_benchmark.public.<view_name> LIMIT 10;

​
Working With the Data

Because the share is read-only and lives in your Snowflake account, you can:
  • Query it directly from worksheets, notebooks, or BI tools connected to Snowflake.
  • Join Credit Benchmark identifiers against your internal counterparty tables to enrich exposures, watchlists, or limits.
  • Build views in your own database that reference the shared objects, without duplicating the underlying data.
The schema, table, and field definitions match the Data Dictionary. Field semantics and consensus calculations follow the standard Methodology.

​
Security

  • The data share is delivered point-to-point between Snowflake accounts; data does not leave Snowflake’s managed infrastructure.
  • Data is encrypted in transit and at rest by Snowflake.
  • Access inside your account is controlled by your Snowflake roles and grants — only roles you explicitly grant IMPORTED PRIVILEGES to can read the database.
  • Credit Benchmark is ISO 27001 certified.
