We’ve expanded Maxsight’s risk configuration with two additional risk levels: Very high and Severe. These new optional levels offer greater flexibility in assessing and categorizing risk, helping ensure your assessments are accurately aligned with your company’s risk tolerance.

As part of our commitment to enhancing security and improving user experience, we are transitioning all users to Moody’s enhanced Single Sign-On (SSO) v2 platform on Tuesday 30 September 2025.
Why is this change happening?
We are upgrading to Moody’s Identity Platform to:
• Provide a consistent, secure login experience across all Moody’s SSO-integrated applications, giving you a single identity to access all Moody’s services
• Improve password management and self-service options
• Ensure compliance with Moody’s global cybesecurity standards
• Activate multi-factor authentication (MFA) to strengthen account protection
SSO
You’ll receive an activation email to set up your password in Moody’s SSO. After setting up your password, you can sign in to Maxsight using your email address instead of your previous username, which could have contained suffixes starting with +.
MFA
Moody’s is activating MFA for all its applications. Email is automatically set as the default MFA option. When you sign in, a code is sent to you via email. Enter the code on the Moody’s SSO sign-in page to complete the login. In addition to email, you can set up two other MFA methods: Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator. You can configure your MFA method at account.moodys.com.
New institution selection tool
Your email now serves as a single sign-in across all your institutions in Maxsight. On your first login, if your email is linked to multiple institutions, you’ll be prompted to choose one. If there’s only one institution, you're taken straight there. Future logins will automatically reconnect you to your last accessed institution, and you can switch institutions anytime from the header bar.

Effective immediately, we have updated the Nature of Business classification returned from the Moody’s Analytics Orbis data provider from NACE Rev. 2.0 to the latest NACE Rev. 2.1 standard.
This change applies to both monitored and non-monitored variants.
NACE Nature of Business codes will now follow the Rev. 2.1 format. For example: Publishing of books changes from 5811 to 58.11
If your configured policies reference NACE Rev. 2.0 codes from Orbis, we will reach out to support the transition to the updated Rev. 2.1 codes.
If you consume this data through the API, you need to update your business logic to account for the new codes.
If have any questions, get in touch with our Client Service team.
We have added the ability to assign tasks to individual users or teams in your organization, similar to our existing assessment-level assignment feature. This allows you to split tasks for an assessment between relevant teams and individuals, assigning specific tasks to specialists, and managing outstanding work on assessments in parallel.
Our new task views provide a new method for prioritizing work. They give an alternative view of your workstream to the current assessment-level views on the Entity management page. Task views help you find tasks assigned to you or your team, focus on urgent tasks such as unresolved sanctions matches, and discover outstanding work on associate entities without having to navigate through layers of ownership.
Task views are available to production institutions in our EU and US environments. Non-production institutions, such as test institutions, will be updated in the coming weeks.
You can read more about task assignment and task views on our help site:
The organization chart feature has been removed from Maxsight. You can view an associate's path to company ownership using Moody's Orbis data through the Assess company ownership task.
If you have any questions, please contact our Client Service team.
You can now leverage a new Maxsight company profile check to assess payment risk for buyers. This new due diligence task helps to identify companies that may be currently or soon facing payment difficulty. The Assess payment risk check provides buyer payment experience data and analytics from Moody’s Analytics Pulse so that you can determine payment risk for a desired business entity.
The Assess payment risk check outcome with details on scoring and data completeness.
Charts detail the company's historic payment risk score and days beyond terms.
This solution is available to all Maxsight customers as an optional add-on with Moody’s Pulse. If you’d like us to set this up for you, contact your Relationship Manager.
Explore the Maxsight help documentation for more information on the Assess payment risk check.
We've updated the names of some of our key concepts so they're simpler and more intuitive to understand.
In most of Maxsight, you'll now see these names:
Our API and the platform URLs will stay the same, so your integrations and bookmarks will continue to work.
Reports and data export will be updated with the next phase of our project.
You can read more about our terminology updates on our help site.
You can now ensure that associate roles in the Identify officers and Identify authorized persons tasks no longer contribute to the company’s risk score.
Removing an associate's role from the company profile automatically cancels or rejects the product application for that role and severs the role’s relationship to the parent company, ensuring it isn't factored into the company’s risk score.
Associates with all roles removed from the company profile don’t appear in the Removed tab, but you can still access their profiles and applications by selecting the associate’s name in the company profile's audit report item that's generated when a role is removed.
If you remove an associate role from the company’s profile in the Identify officers task, but that associate still holds a role in any other task, for example the Assess company ownership task, that role might still contribute to the company’s risk score if that’s how your risk policy is set up.
Read more about it in our help page.
We’ve made changes to our Orbis company search to help you quickly identify the correct legal entity when creating new company profiles.
What’s changed
How it works
If you have any questions, visit our help site or get in touch with our Client Service team.
You now have the option to automatically complete the Assess company ownership and Identify officers tasks when no associates are returned from the data provider and there are no associates present in the verification list.
The new option can be selected in addition to the verification list criteria for automatic task completion. This means you can configure tasks to automatically complete in either scenario: 1. When associates are returned and require verification; and 2. When no associates are returned from the data provider.
Automatic task completion when no associates are returned only happens when a company data check has passed. The task doesn’t complete automatically if the check returns a partial, fail, or error result.
Refer to our help site to learn more about automatic task completion. To set this up, contact your implementation specialist.
