CRIF Launches New Tariff Impact Assessment Score to Help Businesses Navigate Rising U.S. Trade Pressures

Singapore, 29 April 2025 – In response to recent US tariff actions that affect several Asian economies, CRIF, a global leader in credit bureau, business information, and credit risk solutions, today announced the launch of Tariff Impact Assessment Score, a new analytics feature designed to assess the potential impact of US tariffs on a company’s credit profile.

The introduction of this assessment score marks a strategic enhancement to CRIF’s suite of business information offerings, providing clients with a targeted, data-driven evaluation of how tariffs may influence a company’s creditworthiness, cash flow, and operational resilience.

Novi Rolastuti, Regional Head of Sales for Business Information Services, Asia of CRIF said: “We developed the Tariff Impact Assessment Score to give our clients early, actionable insights into trade-related vulnerabilities. With global trade dynamics shifting fast, the ability to anticipate risk and build resilience is a competitive advantage. This score enables our clients to take proactive steps – whether rebalancing supply chains, adjusting trade strategy, or screening new partners.”

A Smart Gauge for Credit Risk and Trade Exposure

The Tariff Impact Assessement Score is a dedicated section available in CRIF business information reports, designed to provide a clear indicator of tariff-related vulnerabilities. The score is built on a multi-dimensional model that takes into consideration:

· Industry Affiliation

CRIF’s market and analytics experts have conducted scenario-based evaluations across countries to identify industries most affected by US tariffs. This analysis helps companies better understand sector-specific risks and dependencies.

· Company Size

Recognizing that company scale influences agility and market responsiveness, CRIF incorporates size into its assessment using country-specific thresholds. Larger enterprises typically posses greater capacity to shift production or explore alternative markets, whereas smaller businesses may face heightened exposure.

· Company-specific USA Exposure Investigation

Through direct investigation, CRIF analysts assess a company’s reliance on US trade, measuring its exposure to cross-border clients and suppliers to deliver a precise picture of tariff sensitivity.

The scoring model integrates public trade data, proprietary research, and CRIF’s structured investigation methodology. Countries and sectors with a high export share to the US and persistent trade deficits are flagged as having elevated tariff-related risk.

Navigating Disruptions, Seizing Opportunity

The Tariff Impact Assessment Score is part of CRIF’s broader framework to empower businesses to proactively manage risks and uncover new growth opportunities across three strategic phases:

· Early Warning (1–3 months): Monitoring emerging risks through payment delays and identifying vulnerable clients or supplier.

· Risk Escalation (3–6 months): Triggering real-time credit alerts and supporting contingency planning.

· Adaptation Phase (6–12 months): Facilitating portfolio rebalancing, sourcing alternative supplier, and identifying new growth opportunities.

Available to CRIF clients via business information reports, the new Tariff Impact Assessment Score is especially valuable for multinational corporations, financial institutions, and export-driven businesses seeking to proactively manage credit and trade risk in today’s shifting geopolitical landscape.

13-year-old Swimmer with Autism Dives into Global Stage, Qualifies for Oceanman Dubai

  

DAVAO CITY—13-year-old Palmer Taliño Taray, a teenager from Davao City diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), qualified for the prestigious open water swimming competition in Dubai after triumphantly finishing the first ever Oceanman Philippines held in Siargao on 5 April 2025.

Palmer participated in the 2-kilometer course open water swim and was able to finish it within 1 hour and 44 minutes. However, due to the strong water current in the area, it was recorded that he swam around 3.7 kilometers in total, the farthest he had gone during a swimming competition. About 570 other swimmers participated in the event together with Palmer. This achievement coincides with the celebration of the World Autism Month this April which ignites a global movement aimed at understanding, accepting, and empowering people with autism.

As the first ever finisher with ASD, Palmer ranked first in the inspirational category and is set to participate in Oceanman Dubai later this year. Asked how Palmer offcially qualified for this, Coach Kirt Loven Murcia said, "He was the only one with mental health disability who participated in the event in Siargao, and the organizers were so amazed by his dedication. Per my record, he is also the first with that level of ASD to survive such a well-known swimming competition."

The 13-year-old swimmer with special needs is the youngest son of Mr. Jerry John Taray and Mrs. Jocelyn Taliño Taray who hailed from Davao City. Following his recent achievements such as finishing the Davao-Samal Cross Channel Swim and the first Oceanman Philippines, Mrs. Taray said, "Our family is extremely proud of Palmer's achievements, and we are very excited to participate in Oceanman Dubai this year! As his mother, I have seen how Palmer strived hard to get here. He learned discipline and was able to develop a healthy daily routine. We are also glad that we've finally discovered his potential, this only proves that children with ASD can also excel in different fields with the right support from family and friends."

Joining the first Oceanman Philippines is a significant milestone for Palmer and his swimming coaches because it was an avenue for them to tell the world that people with autism can exceed their limitations and be achievers in their own fields. The key to this is discovering their talents and unlocking new skills by engaging them in new hobbies and activities.

Palmer only started swimming 2 years ago as a form of therapy aimed at improving his motor skills and sensory abilities. Few months after, he has shown significant progress and interest in swimming. However. the journey was challenging not only for Palmer and his family but also for his coaches because they needed to teach him how to follow instructions by implementing strict routines.

Aquatic training for children with ASD has many positive effects, it improves their motor abilities as well as their social behavior and communication skills. Similarly, it helps with emotion regulation because water naturally gives pressure on the body, which can feel calming, and this sensory feedback can help children with autism feel more grounded and in control of their emotions. Further, swimming can be a way to release built-up energy and tension among children with ASD.

In preparation for the upcoming Oceanman open-water swimming competition in Dubai this year, Palmer is set to join more local swimming competitions and marathons across the country to further gain strength and endurance. He will likewise continue his training four times a week together with Coaches Kirt Loven Murcia and Kevin Palabao.

Oceanman is a globally recognized series of open-water swimming competitions that attract swimmers of all levels—from beginners to elite athletes. Established in 2015, it has grown into one of the largest international open-water swimming circuits, hosting events across five continents and drawing over 40,000 participants annually. Amomg the well-known local personalities who joined the recently held Oceanman Philippines together with Palmer were Erwan Heusaff, Nico Bolzico, and Wil Dasovich.
