An Analytic Approach to Rating Transitions

  • Chapter
CreditRisk+ in the Banking Industry

Part of the book series: Springer Finance ((FINANCE))

Summary

Extending CreditRisk+ to a multi-state model allows one to incorporate credit quality changes into the calculation of portfolio credit risk. Several modifica­tions to the original methodology are proposed to make the extension to a mark­to-market model tractable. The distribution of portfolio value changes is obtained analytically by a two-dimensional recursion algorithm.
