Invela Risk Indicator
June 15, 2026

What is an open finance risk indicator score?

Short answer

The Risk Indicator score is a continuously updated 0–100 measure of a network participant's risk profile – not a point-in-time audit result.

Key takeaways

  • The Risk Indicator is a continuously updated score from 0 to 100, where 100 is the lowest risk.
  • It is generated for aggregators and third-party providers alike.
  • Banks can see the scores of every aggregator and provider they are connected to across the network.
  • It moves as signals change, rather than staying fixed until the next scheduled review.

Invela's open finance risk indicator score is a continuously updated measure, from 0 to 100, of a network participant's current risk profile – with 100 representing the lowest risk. Invela's Risk Indicator generates this score for aggregators and third-party providers alike, and banks can see the scores of every aggregator and third-party provider they're connected to across the network.

What makes it different from a periodic audit score

The score updates as conditions change, not on a fixed review schedule. A traditional audit score reflects a provider's standing at one point in time and stays fixed until the next scheduled review. Invela's Risk Indicator score moves as the underlying signals change – which is what lets an institution see a shift in a third-party provider's risk profile as it happens, rather than discovering it at the next annual cycle.
