Deriving the term-structure of loan write-off risk under IFRS 9 by using survival analysis: A benchmark study

The estimation of marginal loan write-off probabilities is a non-trivial task when modelling the loss given default (LGD) risk parameter in credit risk. We explore two types of survival models in estimating the overall write-off probability over default spell time, where these probabilities form the

Comparing two approaches for modelling the loss given default of credit cards: Run-off triangles vs regression

The use of run-off triangles (ROTs) is a common industry practice in estimating the loss given default (LGD) risk parameter when predicting credit losses in banking. We benchmark this industry practice using credit card data against a more sophisticated (though classical) regression-based approach,

Defining and comparing SICR-events for classifying impaired loans under IFRS 9

The IFRS 9 accounting standard requires the prediction of credit deterioration in financial instruments, i.e., significant increases in credit risk (SICR). However, the definition of such a SICR-event is inherently ambiguous, given its current reliance on evaluating the change in the estimated proba
