Credit Risk Modelling is the best way for lenders to
understand how likely a particular loan is to get repaid.
➢ It is a tool to understand the credit risk of a borrower.
➢ This is especially important because this credit risk
profile keeps changing with time and circumstances.
➢ In the lending business lender witness how dramatically
loan portfolios can change over relatively short time
frames, and how detrimental those changes can be to
both topline & bottom line.
➢ Credit risk modelling refers to two important things.
a. Probability of the borrower defaulting on the loan
b. The impact on the financials of the lender if this
default occurs.

Credit Risk is critical to the following:
d. Merton Model
e. KMV Model
Usage of Z score of the firm
Original Z-Score for public Manufacturing Companies:
Z-Score Forecast
➢ Above 3.0 :Bankruptcy is not likely
➢ 1.8 to 3.0 :Bankruptcy can not be predicted (Gray area)
➢ Below 1.8 :Bankruptcy is likely
Z-Score Forecast
Model Efficiency
▪ Difference between the estimated default values and
actual default rate
▪ Expected asset value (1 year hence) 200 crores
▪ Default point (DP) 140 crores
▪ Volatility of asset value 12%
▪ Asset value 250 crores
EDF
15%
2.0 DFD
The KMV (Kealhofer Merton Vasicek) model is a credit
risk model that Kealhofer, Merton, and Vasicek
developed to estimate the Probability of Default (PD) and
the expected Loss Given Default (LGD) for a company or
a portfolio of companies.
Of the above, the last three are known variables, and so is the
stock price. The only unknown variables are V and σ. The
volatility of the assets is not the same as the volatility of the stock
price, as the latter is driven by the value of the assets.
B. Calculate the ‘distance to default’ (DD)
▪ A key concept underlying the KMV approach is the
recognition that a firm does not have to default the moment
its asset value falls below the face value of debt.
▪ Default happens when value of the firm’s assets falls
somewhere between the value of the short term debt and the
value of the total debt.
▪ In other words, it is possible to not have default even if the
value of the assets has fallen to less than the total debt.
▪ KMV sets the default point as somewhere between short
term debt (STD) and the total debt as the total of the short
term debt and half the value of the long term debt.
Based upon what was explained above, EDFs are affected by:
▪ Stock price
▪ Leverage ratio and
▪ Asset volatility.
Difference between Merton Model & KMV Model
➢ Both models are used for Credit Risk Assessment of Firms.
➢ They are default forecasting model that produces a
probability of default for each firm at any given point in time

credit risk evaluation, portfolio risk theoretical purposes.

Needed procedures
▪ Documentation made for all credit related transactions
▪ Collateralized transactions monitored regularly
▪ Legally binding terms for the credit transaction
▪ Review of borrower performance profile
▪ Alternate options in terms of loan restructure to
changed scenarios
