Risk Measurement With Integrated Market and Credit Portfolio Models
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper studies the effect on economic capital from integrating interest rate and credit spread risk into credit portfolio models. By using fixed forward rates, most credit portfolio models currently employed in the banking industry ignore these risk factors. In contrast to previous studies, this paper accounts for correlated transition risk, credit spread risk, interest rate risk and also recovery rate risk. The simulations show that the error made when neglecting the stochastic nature of interest rates or credit spreads is significant, especially for high quality credit portfolios with low correlations between the obligors’ asset returns.

Importance sampling for integrated market and credit portfolio models
A sophisticated approach for computing the total economic capital needed for various stochastically dependent risk types is the bottom-up approach. In this approach, usually, market and credit risks of financial instruments are modeled simultaneously. As integrating market risk factors into standard credit portfolio models increases the computational burden of calculating risk measures, it is a...
متن کاملAn Integrated Market and Credit Risk Portfolio Model (pdf)
We present a multi-step model to measure portfolio credit risk that integrates exposure simulation and portfolio credit risk techniques. Thus, it overcomes the major limitation currently shared by portfolio models with derivatives. Specifically, the model is an improvement over current portfolio credit risk models in three main aspects. First, it defines explicitly the joint evolution of market...

متن کاملThe Current Models of Credit Portfolio Management: A Comparative Theoretical Analysis
The present paper aimed at studying the current models of credit portfolio management. There are currently three types of models which consider the risk of credit portfolio: the structural models (Moody's KMV model, and Credit- Metrics model), the intensity models (the actuarial models) and the econometric models (the Macro-factors model). The development of these three types of models is based...
متن کاملApplication of Fourier Inversion Methods to Credit Portfolio Models with Integrated Interest Rate and Credit Spread Risk
Most credit portfolio models currently used by the banking industry rely on Monte Carlo simulations for calculating the probability distribution of the future credit portfolio value, which can be quite computer time consuming. Adding market risk factors, such as stochastic interest rates or credit spreads, as additional ingredients of a credit portfolio model, the computational burden of full M...
