2 Features of CreditRis+ pplies a actuarial sciece framewor to the derivatio of the loss distributio of a bod/loa portfolio. Oly default ris is modelled, ot dowgrade ris. Default ris is ot related to the capital structure of the firm. No assumptio is made about the causes of default. obligor is either i default with probability P ad that ot i default with probability 1 P.

3 ssumptios o probability of default The probability distributio for the umber of defaults durig a give period, is approximated by Poisso distributio where e P defaults for 0,1,2,!! average umber of defaults over the period Statioary assumptio o the probability of default. Number of defaults that occur i ay give period is idepedet of the umber of defaults that occur i ay other period. P.

The pgf of the sum K 1 + K 2 Example For a sigle obligor, F 1 P + P. is simply the product of the two pgf s. For the whole portfolio, F p defaults. 0

17 Correlatio i defaults Observed default probabilities are volatile over time, eve for obligors havig comparable credit quality. The variability of default probabilities ca be related to uderlyig variability i a umber of bacgroud factors, lie the state of the ecoomy. Two obligors are sesitive to the same set of bacgroud factors with differig weights, their default probabilities will move together. These co-movemets i probabilities give rise to correlatios i defaults. CreditRis + does ot attempt to model correlatios explicitly but captures the same cocetratio effects through the use of default rate volatilities ad sector aalysis.

18 Sector alysis Write S, 1,, for the sectors, each of which should be thought of as a subset of the set of obligors. Each sector is drive by a sigle uderlyig factor, which explais the variability over time i the average total default rate measured for that sector. The uderlyig factor iflueces the sector through the total average rate of defaults i that sector, which is modeled as a radom variable x with mea ad stadard deviatio σ.
