A Random Matrix Approach to Credit Risk
نویسندگان
چکیده
We estimate generic statistical properties of a structural credit risk model by considering an ensemble of correlation matrices. This ensemble is set up by Random Matrix Theory. We demonstrate analytically that the presence of correlations severely limits the effect of diversification in a credit portfolio if the correlations are not identically zero. The existence of correlations alters the tails of the loss distribution considerably, even if their average is zero. Under the assumption of randomly fluctuating correlations, a lower bound for the estimation of the loss distribution is provided.

متن کاملMatrix Sequential Hybrid Credit Scorecard Based on Logistic Regression and Clustering
The Basel II Accord pointed out benefits of credit risk management through internal models to estimate Probability of Default (PD). Banks use default predictions to estimate the loan applicants’ PD. However, in practice, PD is not useful and banks applied credit scorecards for their decision making process. Also the competitive pressures in lending industry forced banks to use profit scorecards...

متن کاملA Hybrid Approach of Dea, Rough Set Theory and Random Forests for Credit Rating
In recent years, credit rating analysis has attracted lots of research interest in the literature. While the operating efficiency of a corporation is generally acknowledged to be a key contributor to the corporation’s risk, it is usually excluded from early prediction models. To verify the operating efficiency as predictive variables, we propose a novel model to integrate rough set theory (RST)...
متن کاملThe Resilience of the Iranian Banking System to Macro Shocks with an Emphasis on Credit Risk
In this paper, we present the macro stress test with a credit risk approach for banking system of Iran during the period 2004Q1-2019Q4. The goal is to evaluate the vulnerability of the banking system through credit risk to the country economic shocks. In this regard, the developed method of Wilson (1997) Credit Portfolio View model including macroeconomic variables and default rate has been use...
