The level of capital requirement generated by the IRB approach depends crucially on the asset correlation, a parameter … (WCL) and we show how the asset correlation influences these measures. We then provide a rationale for the regulatory …

The stability of the financial system is associated with systemic risk factors such as the concurrent default of numerous small obligors. Hence it is of utmost importance to study the mutual dependence of losses for different creditors in the case of large, overlapping credit portfolios. We...

In credit risk modelling, the correlation of unobservable asset returns is a crucial component for the measurement of …,000 European firms from 1996 to 2004. We compare correlation and value-atrisk (VaR) estimates in a one-factor or market model and a …

. The asset correlation parameter describes the degree of default rate fluctuations and is part of the Basel Accord …'s formula on capital requirements. We estimate the asset correlation parameter for homogenous segments such that of banks from … default data. We find that the regulatory asset correlation parameter cannot be considered prudent for some homogenous …

The Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach for capital determination is one of the cornerstones in the proposed revision of the Basel Committee rules for bank regulation. We evaluate the IRB approach using historical business loan portfolio data from a major Swedish bank for the period 1994 to...

This paper develops an empirical procedure for analyzing the impact of model misspecification and calibration errors on measures of portfolio credit risk. When applied to large simulated portfolios with realistic characteristics, this procedure reveals that violations of key assumptions of the...
