Market and Credit Risk Management


New Models for Assessing Credit Risk

A class of bankruptcy models with a strong theoretical basis is called ‘risk of ruin’. The basic idea behind these models is that a firm will fail if its external debt exceeds the market liquidation value of its assets. In many respects, these models resemble option-pricing models. According to the Black−Scholes−Merton model, the probability of a firm going bankrupt depends on the ratio of the market value of its assets to the external debt and the volatility of the market value of its assets. The model developed by KMV Corporation builds on the basic idea described above, relying heavily on estimates of the market value of the assets of the rated company and their volatility as inputs to predict the probability of default. This model will be discussed further in a later section.
