Under the CreditPortfolio View approach to credit risk modeling, which of the following best describes the conditional transition matrix:
Under the CreditPortfolio View approach, the credit rating transition matrix is adjusted for the state of the economy in a way as to increase the probability of defaults when the economy is not doing well, and vice versa. Therefore Choice 'a' is the correct answer. The other choices represent nonsensical options.
Which of the following belong in a credit risk report?
All the listed variables are relevant to management monitoring the credit risk profile of an institution, therefore Choice 'd' is the correct answer.
The standalone economic capital estimates for the three uncorrelated business units of a bank are $100, $200 and $150 respectively. What is the combined economic capital for the bank?
Since the business units are uncorrelated, we can get the combined EC as equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the individual EC estimates. Therefore Choice 'a' is the correct answer. [=SQRT(100^2+200^2+150^2)]
The principle underlying the contingent claims approach to measuring credit risk equates the cost of eliminating credit risk for a firm to be equal to:
Under the contingent claims approach, a firm will default on its debt when the value of its assets fall to less than the face value of the debt. Debt holders can protect themselves against such an event by buying a put on the assets of the firm, where the strike price is equal to the value of the debt. In other words, Risky Debt + Put on the firm's assets = Risk free debt. This is because if the value of the assets is greater than the value of the debt, they will be paid in full. If the value of the assets is lower than the value of the debt, they will exercise the put and be paid in full.
Therefore the value of the put on the firm's assets with a strike equal to the value of the debt represents the cost of eliminating credit risk. Choice 'b' is the correct answer.
Note that it is improbable that a put on the firm's assets is available in real life to debt holders. However, the same effect can be synthetically achieved by using the shares of the firm as a proxy for its assets, and shorting an appropriate number of shares. Such a synthetic put will require frequent readjustments.
The Altman credit risk score considers:
A computation of Altman's Z-score considers the following ratios:
- Working capital to total assets
- Retained earnings to total assets
- EBIT to total assets
- Market cap to debt
- Sales to total assets
Nearly all the numbers above are accounting measures derived straight from the balance sheet or the income statement. Market capitalization is a market driven number. Therefore Choice 'c' is the correct answer as the Altman credit risk score considers both accounting and market based measures.
Altman's score, though computationally straightforward and intuitively easy to understand, was introduced in the late sixties and has been very accurate in predicting corporate bankruptcies, which is why it continues to be used extensively.
