Some models of loan default are binary, simply modelling the probability of default, while others go further and model the extent of default (eg number of outstanding payments; amount of arrears). The double-hurdle model, originally due to Cragg (Econometrica, 1971), and conventionally applied to household consumption or labour supply decisions, contains two equations, one which determines whether or not a customer is a potential defaulter (the ‘first hurdle’), and the other which determines the extent of default. In separating these two processes, the model recognizes that there exists a subset of the observed non-defaulters who would never default whatever their circumstances. A Box-Cox transformation applied to the dependent variable is a useful generalization to the model. Estimation is relatively easy using the Maximum Likelihood routine available in STATA. The model is applied to a sample of 2515 loan applicants for whom loans were approved, a sizeable proportion of whom defaulted in varying degrees. The dependent variables used are amount in arrears and number of days in arrears. The value of the hurdle approach is confirmed by finding that certain key explanatory variables have very different effects between the two equations. Most notably, the effect of loan amount is strongly positive on arrears, while being U-shaped on the probability of default. The former effect is seriously under-estimated when the first hurdle is ignored.  相似文献

One of the issues that the Basel Accord highlighted was that, though techniques for estimating the probability of default and hence the credit risk of loans to individual consumers are well established, there were no models for the credit risk of portfolios of such loans. Motivated by the reduced form models for credit risk in corporate lending, we seek to exploit the obvious parallels between behavioural scores and the ratings ascribed to corporate bonds to build consumer-lending equivalents. We incorporate both consumer-specific ratings and macroeconomic factors in the framework of Cox Proportional Hazard models. Our results show that default intensities of consumers are significantly influenced by macro factors. Such models then can be used as the basis for simulation approaches to estimate the credit risk of portfolios of consumer loans.  相似文献

Loss given default (LGD) models predict losses as a proportion of the outstanding loan, in the event a debtor goes into default. The literature on corporate sector LGD models suggests LGD is correlated to the economy and so changes in the economy could translate into different predictions of losses. In this work, the role of macroeconomic variables in loan-level retail LGD models is examined by testing the inclusion of macroeconomic variables in two different retail LGD models: a two-stage model for a residential mortgage loans data set and an ordinary least squares model for an unsecured personal loans data set. To improve loan-level predictions of LGD, indicators relating to the macroeconomy are considered with mixed results: the selected macroeconomic variable seemed able to improve the predictive performance of mortgage loan LGD estimates, but not for personal loan LGD. For mortgage loan LGD, interest rate was most beneficial but only predicted better during downturn periods, underestimating LGD during non-downturn periods. For personal loan LGD, only net lending growth is statistically significant but including this variable did not bring any improvement to R2.  相似文献

A Markov chain is a natural probability model for accounts receivable. For example, accounts that are ‘current’ this month have a probability of moving next month into ‘current’, ‘delinquent’ or ‘paid‐off’ states. If the transition matrix of the Markov chain were known, forecasts could be formed for future months for each state. This paper applies a Markov chain model to subprime loans that appear neither homogeneous nor stationary. Innovative estimation methods for the transition matrix are proposed. Bayes and empirical Bayes estimators are derived where the population is divided into segments or subpopulations whose transition matrices differ in some, but not all entries. Loan‐level models for key transition matrix entries can be constructed where loan‐level covariates capture the non‐stationarity of the transition matrix. Prediction is illustrated on a $7 billion portfolio of subprime fixed first mortgages and the forecasts show good agreement with actual balances in the delinquency states.

We propose a structural credit risk model for consumer lending using option theory and the concept of the value of the consumer’s reputation. Using Brazilian empirical data and a credit bureau score as proxy for creditworthiness we compare a number of alternative models before suggesting one that leads to a simple analytical solution for the probability of default. We apply the proposed model to portfolios of consumer loans introducing a factor to account for the mean influence of systemic economic factors on individuals. This results in a hybrid structural-reduced-form model. And comparisons are made with the Basel II approach. Our conclusions partially support that approach for modelling the credit risk of portfolios of retail credit.  相似文献

Credit risk measurement and management are important and current issues in the modern finance world from both the theoretical and practical perspectives. There are two major schools of thought for credit risk analysis, namely the structural models based on the asset value model originally proposed by Merton and the intensity‐based reduced form models. One of the popular credit risk models used in practice is the Binomial Expansion Technique (BET) introduced by Moody's. However, its one‐period static nature and the independence assumption for credit entities' defaults are two shortcomings for the use of BET in practical situations. Davis and Lo provided elegant ways to ease the two shortcomings of BET with their default infection and dynamic continuous‐time intensity‐based approaches. This paper first proposes a discrete‐time dynamic extension to the BET in order to incorporate the time‐dependent and time‐varying behaviour of default probabilities for measuring the risk of a credit risky portfolio. In reality, the ‘true’ default probabilities are unobservable to credit analysts and traders. Here, the uncertainties of ‘true’ default probabilities are incorporated in the context of a dynamic Bayesian paradigm. Numerical studies of the proposed model are provided.  相似文献

Credit scoring systems are based on Operational Research and statistical models which seek to identify who of previous borrowers did or did not default on loans. This study looks at the question when will borrowers default not if they will default. It suggests that some of the reliability modelling approaches may be useful in this context and may help identify who will default as well as when they may default.  相似文献

Quantile regression is applied in two retail credit risk assessment exercises exemplifying the power of the technique to account for the diverse distributions that arise in the financial service industry. The first application is to predict loss given default for secured loans, in particular retail mortgages. This is an asymmetric process since where the security (such as a property) value exceeds the loan balance the banks cannot retain the profit, whereas when the security does not cover the value of the defaulting loan then the bank realises a loss. In the light of this asymmetry it becomes apparent that estimating the low tail of the house value is much more relevant for estimating likely losses than estimates of the average value where in most cases no loss is realised. In our application quantile regression is used to estimate the distribution of property values realised on repossession that is then used to calculate loss given default estimates. An illustration is given for a mortgage portfolio from a European mortgage lender. A second application is to revenue modelling. While credit issuing organisations have access to large databases, they also build models to assess the likely effects of new strategies for which, by definition, there is no existing data. Certain strategies are aimed at increasing the revenue stream or decreasing the risk in specific market segments. Using a simple artificial revenue model, quantile regression is applied to elucidate the details of subsets of accounts, such as the least profitable, as predicted from their covariates. The application uses standard linear and kernel smoothed quantile regression.  相似文献

Abstract

In reduced form default models, the instantaneous default intensity is the classical modelling object. Survival probabilities are then given by the Laplace transform of the cumulative hazard defined as the integrated intensity process. Instead, recent literature tends to specify the cumulative hazard process directly. Within this framework we present a new model class where cumulative hazards are described by self-similar additive processes, also known as Sato processes. Furthermore, we analyse specifications obtained via a simple deterministic time change of a homogeneous Lévy process. While the processes in these two classes share the same average behaviour over time, the associated intensities exhibit very different properties. Concrete specifications are calibrated to data on all the single names included in the iTraxx Europe index. The performances are compared with those of the classical Cox–Ingersoll–Ross intensity and a recently proposed class of intensity models based on Ornstein–Uhlenbeck-type processes. It is shown that the time-inhomogeneous Lévy models achieve comparable calibration errors with fewer parameters and with more stable parameter estimates over time. However, the calibration performance of the Sato processes and the time-change specifications are practically indistinguishable.  相似文献

Pricing formulae for defaultable corporate bonds with discrete coupons (under consideration of the government taxes) in the united two-factor model of structural and reduced form models are provided. The aim of this paper is to generalize the two-factor structural model for defaultable corporate discrete coupon bonds (considered in [1]) into the unified model of structural and reduced form models. In our model the bond holders receive the stochastic coupon (which is the discounted value of a predetermined value at the maturity) at predetermined coupon dates and the face value (debt) and the coupon at the maturity as well as the effect of government taxes which are paid on the proceeds of an investment in bonds is considered. The expected default event occurs when the equity value is not sufficient to pay coupon or debt at the coupon dates or maturity and the unexpected default event can occur at the first jump time of a Poisson process with the given default intensity provided by a step function of time variable. We provide the model and pricing formula for equity value and using it calculate expected default barrier. Then we provide pricing model and formula for defaultable corporate bonds with discrete coupons and consider its duration.  相似文献

The contagion credit risk model is used to describe the contagion effect among different financial institutions. Under such a model, the default intensities are driven not only by the common risk factors, but also by the defaults of other considered firms. In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional credit risk model with contagion and regime-switching. We assume that the default intensity of one firm will jump when the other firm defaults and that the intensity is controlled by a Vasicek model with the coefficients allowed to switch in different regimes before the default of other firm. By changing measure, we derive the marginal distributions and the joint distribution for default times. We obtain some closed form results for pricing the fair spreads of the first and the second to default credit default swaps (CDSs). Numerical results are presented to show the impacts of the model parameters on the fair spreads.  相似文献

This contribution studies the effects of credit contagion on the credit risk of a portfolio of bank loans. To this aim we introduce a model that takes into account the counterparty risk in a network of interdependent firms that describes the presence of business relations among different firms. The location of the firms is simulated with probabilities computed using an entropy spatial interaction model. By means of a wide simulation analysis we investigate the behavior of the model proposed and study the effects of default contagion on the loss distribution of a portfolio of bank loans.  相似文献

This paper analyzes an intensity‐based approach for equity modeling. We use the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross (CIR) process to describe the intensity of the firm's default process. The intensity is purposely linked to the assets of the firm and consequently is also used to explain the equity. We examine two different approaches to link assets and intensity and derive closed‐form expressions for the firms' equity under both models. We use the Kalman filter to estimate the parameters of the unobservable intensity process. We demonstrate our approach using historical equity time series data from Merrill Lynch.

We analyze how wage arrears are affected by the worker’s type (in this paper, the worker’s type means the worker’s attitude to wage arrears). Wage arrears cause workers’ negative emotion which may lead to serious social problem and the government may intervene. In this paper, we model the process of wage arrears as a Markov decision process in which the firm is the decision maker. We develop an optimal solution approach under the assumption that the worker’s negative emotion threshold (The worker’s negative emotion increases monotonically with increasing back pay. Once the cumulative back pay exceeds a particular value, the worker will take legal actions and the government will intervene. We define the particular value as the worker’s negative emotion threshold.) is normally distributed and provide insights into how wage arrears vary with the worker’s type and the government intervention. We propose the optimal government intervention which stops wage arrears and does not disturb the normal order of the market economy. We show that the intervention depends on the worker’s type and the results imply that the government intervention should be adjusted dynamically according to different regions, industrial sectors and time periods.  相似文献

Credit risk models are commonly based on large internal data sets to produce reliable estimates of the probability of default (PD) that should be validated with time. However, in the real world, a substantial portion of the exposures is included in low-default portfolios (LDPs) in which the number of defaulted loans is usually much lower than the number of non-default observations. Modelling of these imbalanced data sets is particularly problematic with small portfolios in which the absence of information increases the specification error. Sovereigns, banks, or specialised retail exposures are recent examples of post-crisis portfolios with insufficient data for PD estimates, which require specific tools for risk quantification and validation. This paper explores the suitability of cooperative strategies for managing such scarce LDPs. In addition to the use of statistical and machine-learning classifiers, this paper explores the suitability of cooperative models and bootstrapping strategies for default prediction and multi-grade PD setting using two real-world credit consumer data sets. The performance is assessed in terms of out-of-sample and out-of-time discriminatory power, PD calibration, and stability. The results indicate that combinational approaches based on correlation-adjusted strategies are promising techniques for managing sparse LDPs and providing accurate and well-calibrated credit risk estimates.  相似文献

在我国,拖欠工资现象仍广泛存在于某些行业中。它引发了被拖欠者的负面情绪,进而带来了种种社会问题,政府部门自然要干预其中。基于欠薪的动态决策过程,本文在劳动者负面情绪阈值的两种分布下,分别讨论了企业的欠薪行为,其结果非常直观地显示了企业恶意欠薪的根源在于“有利可图”。文章从量化角度明确了增强劳动者的维权意识是治理欠薪的有效途径,而政府干预是劳动者维权行为的必要保证。此外,建立随机检查机制可以让政府干预在治理欠薪中发挥出实际效果,政府也可以通过调控经济环境达到治理欠薪的目的。  相似文献

The internal‐rating‐based Basel II approach increases the need for the development of more realistic default probability models. In this paper, we follow the approach taken in McNeil A and Wendin J 7 (J. Empirical Finance 2007) by constructing generalized linear mixed models for estimating default probabilities from annual data on companies with different credit ratings. The models considered, in contrast to McNeil A and Wendin J 7 (J. Empirical Finance 2007), allow parsimonious parametric models to capture simultaneously dependencies of the default probabilities on time and credit ratings. Macro‐economic variables can also be included. Estimation of all model parameters are facilitated with a Bayesian approach using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. Special emphasis is given to the investigation of predictive capabilities of the models considered. In particular, predictable model specifications are used. The empirical study using default data from Standard and Poor's gives evidence that the correlation between credit ratings further apart decreases and is higher than the one induced by the autoregressive time dynamics.

Three coupling schemes for generating dependent credit rating transitions are compared and empirically tested. Their distributions, the corresponding variances and default correlations are characterized. Using Standard and Poor’s data for OECD countries, parameters of the models are estimated by the maximum likelihood method and MATLAB optimization software. Two pools of debtors are considered: with 5 and with 12 industry sectors. They are classified into two non-default credit classes. First portfolio mimics the Dow Jones iTraxx EUR market index. The default correlations evaluated for 12 industry sectors are confronted with their counterparts known for the US economy.  相似文献

Loss given default modelling has become crucially important for banks due to the requirement that they comply with the Basel Accords and to their internal computations of economic capital. In this paper, support vector regression (SVR) techniques are applied to predict loss given default of corporate bonds, where improvements are proposed to increase prediction accuracy by modifying the SVR algorithm to account for heterogeneity of bond seniorities. We compare the predictions from SVR techniques with thirteen other algorithms. Our paper has three important results. First, at an aggregated level, the proposed improved versions of support vector regression techniques outperform other methods significantly. Second, at a segmented level, by bond seniority, least square support vector regression demonstrates significantly better predictive abilities compared with the other statistical models. Third, standard transformations of loss given default do not improve prediction accuracy. Overall our empirical results show that support vector regression techniques are a promising technique for banks to use to predict loss given default.  相似文献
