The
Increasing Credit Risk Challenge
Regulatory oversight continues to become increasingly stringent due to the history of broad deterioration in asset quality, liquidity constraints, CRE and mortgage exposure beyond the sub-prime market, economic impacts on borrowers, and the influence of Basel.
- Stagnant domestic economic issues and new upheavals in world credit markets continue to keep regulatory oversight center stage, and economic and political forces have become powerful drivers for tighter regulation.
- Deterioration in asset quality is increasing the demand for finer portfolio stratification and reporting transparency - especially for CRE concentrations.
- The credit risk components of Basel are stimulating lenders to re-examine their existing credit risk management systems and develop better estimates of their loan portfolio’s overall credit quality.
Regulators consistently identify Risk Migration Analysis as a key component of the MIS tool set for managing and reporting on Credit Risk and establishing and substantiating ALLL.
Risk

Historical Risk Rating Migration enables lenders to utilize their historical loan data to perform several mission critical activities, including:
- Establishing loss factors for ALLL
|
- Providing input to credit risk models
|
- Identifying candidates for loan review
|
- Preparing for regulatory review
|
|
- Calibrating dual rating systems
