| | Credit risk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Credit risk is the risk of loss due to a counterparty defaulting on a contract, or more generally the risk of loss due to some "credit event". | | | For large companies, there may even be a credit risk department whose job it is to assess the financial health of their customers, and extend credit (or not) accordingly. | | | Managing credit risk is important for any company, and significant resources are devoted to the task by large companies with many customers (whether they be businesses or individuals). |

| | Credit Risk |
| | Credit risk is risk due to uncertainty in a counterparty's (also called an obligor's or credit's) ability to meet its obligations. | | | The first line of defense is the use of credit scoring or credit analysis to avoid extending credit to parties that entail excessive credit risk. | | | With credit risk models starting to supplant traditional credit analysis, and regulators increasingly invoking agency credit ratings in their regulations, there is much controversy surrounding the use of credit ratings. |

| | Credit Risk |
| | Credit risk monitoring and implementing a credit policy should not be the responsibility of the credit department alone. | | | When a bank’s credit committee (or similar body) comes to approve a credit line, it is essential that committee members have a thorough understanding of every aspect of the counterparty or borrower. | | | Although the Basle paper says lending is the most obvious source of credit risk, it also emphasises that, in practice, credit risk arises from banking and trading activity both on and off the balance sheet. |

| | However, to price the credit derivative, not only is it necessary to be able to arrive at an expected value, it is also essential to have a value for the price of risk in the credit market. | | | Credit spreads: this method looks at the spread between the interest paid for company debt and that paid on government debt of the same maturity. | | | Given that default likelihood is affected by economic conditions and cycles, it must be assumed that to price credit derivatives accurately, there is a price of risk in the credit market that must be known. |

| | Default / Credit Risk Resources - Papers |
| | Credit Scoring: (54 downloadable papers posted) This area has an abundance of academic papers because (I believe) it is both a fun topic for beginning researchers to apply their newly learned discriminant analysis tools, and because it was one of the first topics within credit risk to receive serious attention. | | | Credit Derivatives, CDOs and Credit Sales: (96 downloadable papers posted) This is both a high growth and (it is hoped) a high profit area of credit. | | | Credit Pricing / Credit Spreads: (104 downloadable papers posted) These are principally term structure models for credit spreads and defaultable bonds. |

| | Credit risk is the risk that a party will not settle an obligation for full value. | | | Financial institutions should have procedures in place to manage the credit risk of third parties using their accounts to settle transactions. | | | The risk that settlement of retail payment transactions will not take place as expected can result in both credit and liquidity risks. |

| | Credit risk transfer (CGFS Publications No. 20) |
| | Techniques for transferring credit risk, such as financial guarantees and credit insurance, have been a long-standing feature of financial markets. | | | Increasingly, they are acting as credit originators rather than long-term funders, shifting loans off their balance sheet either individually or as part of a package through loan transfers and securitisation. | | | Thus, for example, the intermediation of credit default swaps seems to be a major business line for a small, but only a small, number of firms; and CRT markets are particularly active for major company credits, much less so for SMEs. |

| | CREDIT DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT |
| | Risk Management: The asset swap is a tool for converting from the risk of price fluctuations to the risk of payment fluctuations, since the value of default riskless floating rate debt reverts to par at each reset debt. | | | A credit default swap typically pays off at the occurrence of a "credit event" that amounts to a default, so would not be suitable for trading exposure to a non-performing loan portfolio — which is already in default. | | | The LPC Risk Rater estimates the default probability of a borrower. |

| | Credit Risk |
| | Traditionally, credit risk researchers have treated the important recovery rate variable as a function of historic average default recovery rates, conditioned perhaps on seniority and collateral factors, and in almost all cases as independent of expected or actual default rates. | | | Agency credit ratings are an important feature of the financial markets and they play an increasingly important role in bank credit risk management and regulatory capital calculations. | | | RISK TRANSFER: A speech by the UK’s main financial regulator identified some key concerns about the transfer of credit risk, both within the banking industry and from the banking to the insurance sector. |

| | CREDIT RISK |
| | The DPC’s credit rating typically exceeds the parent’s, because the parent infuses it with a large amount of capital, compared to the credit exposure that that DPC counterparties have to it. | | | It's not clear that credit risk is the issue. | | | Deducing the risk neutral probability of default depends on knowing the recovery rates, having a rich set of debt instruments for the debtor, and assuming that default and the level of riskless rates is independent. |

| | Corporate Bonds: An Introduction To Credit Risk |
| | Credit ratings published by Moody's, Standard and Poor's and Fitch IBCA are meant to capture and categorize credit risk. | | | He or she should probably ask, "Is the extra yield worth the risk of default?" or "Am I getting enough extra yield for assuming the default risk?" In general, the greater the credit risk, the less likely it is that you should buy directly into a single corporate bond issue. | | | The risk is that the bondholder's company may purchase another telecom company and possibly increase its debt burden (financial leverage) in the process. |
