Under the Vasicek asymptotic single risk factor model framework, entity default risk for a risk homogeneous portfolio divides into two parts: systematic and entity specific. While entity specific risk can be modelled by a probit or logistic model using a relatively short period of portfolio historical data, modeling of systematic risk is more challenging. In practice, most default risk models do not fully or dynamically capture systematic risk. In this paper, we propose an approach to modeling systematic and entity specific risks by parts and then aggregating together analytically. Systematic risk is quantified and modelled by a multifactor Vasicek model with a latent residual, a factor accounting for default contagion and feedback effects. The asymptotic maximum likelihood approach for parameter estimation for this model is equivalent to least squares linear regression. Conditional entity PDs for scenario tests and through-the-cycle entity PD all have analytical solutions. For validation, we model the point-in-time entity PD for a commercial portfolio, and stress the portfolio default risk by shocking the systematic risk factors. Rating migration and portfolio loss are assessed.","PeriodicalId":43447,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Risk Model Validation","volume":"69 1","pages":"33-48"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2014-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74086324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is crucial so banks are not misestimating the minimum required capital to protect them against the risks they are facing through their lending activities. The validation of an LGD model typically includes backtesting, which involves the process of evaluating to what degree the internal model estimates still correspond with the realized observations. Reported backtesting examples have typically been limited to simply measuring the similarity between model predictions and realized observations. It is however not straightforward to determine acceptable performance based on these measurements alone. Although recent research led to advanced backtesting methods for PD models, the literature on similar backtesting methods for LGD models is much scarcer. This study addresses this literature gap by proposing a backtesting framework using statistical hypothesis tests to support the validation of LGD models. The proposed statistical hypothesis tests implicitly define reliable reference values to determine acceptable performance and take into account the number of LGD observations, as a small sample may affect the quality of the backtesting procedure. This workbench of tests is applied to an LGD model fitted to real-life data and evaluated through a statistical power analysis.","PeriodicalId":43447,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Risk Model Validation","volume":"45 1","pages":"69-90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2014-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84797633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
