What is Credit Risk Modelling
CRM (or) Credit Risk Modelling is the process of identifying the important factors contributing to the outcome of a decision, assigning a weight for each of them and finally scoring them by the type of credit granted to them.
Few samples of key factors are management experience, EBITDA, liquidity, payment history, debt service coverage, debt service coverage and leverage ratio.
After scoring every individual factor, the last step is to add up all of them and come up with a consolidated end number. The lower the number, the higher the credit risk.
This is a very simple version but in actual, the real magnitude of the credit risk depends on the industry you are associated with and the type of credit you are assigning. This is because the credit is directly responsible for determining the categories and corresponding weight you are about to assign to it.
The credit risk model is a single numeric estimate that is used to understand,
- The financial impact on the occurrence of an event
- The possibility or probability of the occurrence of an event
Some instances are:
- The probability of default: the case where the customer fails to pay the debt.
- EAD: the financial exposure of a bank in the case where a customer default occurs.
- LGD: the losses and financial shortcomings that follow after a bank liquidate its collaterals.
