1 Loss Given Default What is your potential loss position in the current volatile environment? Complete your credit risk assessments with recovery analyses. Evaluate potential economic losses for a range of exposures in various asset classes with an extensive suite of Loss Given Default (LGD) benchmark data, models and services. A full suite of analytical services to help you assess and mitigate risk Meet Your Regulatory Requirements and More Develop and implement LGD methodologies to support the Advanced Internal Ratings Based approach (AIRB) under Basel II, or to simply comply with industry best practices Enhance existing LGD models and methodologies in preparation for AIRB recognition Validate and benchmark internally developed LGD models Build customized LGD/EAD estimation methodology using existing Decision-tree frameworks calibrated to S&P Capital IQ data and best practice approaches Access various LGD client data pooling and collection exercises by region and asset class including Project Finance and Leveraged Finance Access our LossStats model and database of North American corporate recoveries A Fully Transparent Methodology Extensive sector coverage includes mid-size to large Corporates, Financial Institutions, Insurance Companies, Project Finance, Asset Finance, Real Estate, Trade Finance, Local & Regional Governments and Sovereigns. Robust tools support peer and scenario analysis and active portfolio management based on recovery risk. Distinguish Good Loans From Bad Ones lower PD higher lower ACCEPT LOW RISK FOCUS ON COLLATERAL VALUE AND SECURITY ENFORCEABILITY LGD higher FOCUS ON ENSURING OBLIGOR RISK RATING IS CORRECT REJECT HIGH RISK Separation of the two credit risk dimensions probability of default (PD) risk and recovery risk enables you to both analyze and manage the distinct risks in different ways. Facilities can be structured most effectively by minimizing expected losses. Additional features include: Increased consistency, transparency and granularity of internal recovery ratings Fully transparent and intuitive methodologies with detailed regulatory related documentation, a user guide and on-site training A time-efficient and user-friendly interface with input factors either readily available from public or standard sources or easily determined Continuously reviewed testing results and models that ensure their conceptual soundness and strong performance These capabilities may also be effective when assessing unlisted companies. 1

2 Lgd Estimation Scorecards Scorecards are thoroughly tested internal ratings-based methodologies that produce facility-specific estimates of LGD in the low default environment. Cover a wide range of asset classes and sub-sectors More than a dozen industry- and asset-class specific off-the-shelf scorecards produce a point LGD estimate on a continuous scale, which can be mapped to any discrete recovery scale Consistent approach across asset classes via the same underlying statistical framework facilitates use of more inputs based on expert judgment whenever recovery data is limited Delivered in a user-friendly Excel spreadsheet framework for easy integration into your platform Get a fast and effective solution when there is insufficient internal data to build a statistical model. Our methodologies leverage the analytical process of Standard & Poor s Ratings Services, most recent regulatory guidance and best industry practices. Sample Lgd Corporates Scorecard Obligor Characteristics and Bank Policy Industry Enterprise/Asset Valuation Recovery Policy Jurisdiction Industry-Sector Type of Assets Volatility per Asset Type Stress Factor in Case of Default Workout LGD or Liquidation Scenario Location of Assets LGD Point Estimate Recovery Rating Facility Characteristics Debt Structure and Subordination Total Debt and Liabilities Debt Cushion Debt Priority Pledged Collateral Assets Pledged to Facility Assets Pledged to Other Facilities Recovery Enhancement Guarantees Insurances Decision-Tree Models This is a Facility Risk Rating methodology that captures information and calculation of LGD and Exposure at Default (EAD) for each facility. It enables you to adhere to Basel II AIRB principles and best industry practices and is employed by leading Basel II AIRB banks. Uses your own empirical loss rates to the furthest extent possible and blends the available empirical data with in-depth analysis; internal data can be supplemented with external sources to substantiate the level of chosen risk factors Incorporates your own expertise in development of the methodology, including choice of risk drivers, number and complexity of Decision-Tree paths in the model Includes a Lending Value Allocation methodology for facilities secured by one or more specific types of collateral; collateral gets reapportioned to all facilities that have access to it Solution has an empirical basis, but accommodates for the necessary level of analytical insight required to fully capture LGD risk drivers Supports compliance with new regulatory frameworks (such as Basel III), especially in stress testing 2

Enables estimation of potential ultimate recovery and 30-day post-default recovery (by selling the asset) for specified defaulted assets, using U.S. data Validation Validation provides the assessment of loss estimations of individual facilities as well as a review of the use of internal recovery ratings or LGD estimates in the credit process. Solutions include validation diagnosis, framework and process design, performance testing (benchmarking and backtesting where relevant) and review of your internal validation procedures 3

4 Benchmarking Benchmarks are developed by placing an objective, structured framework around our existing methodology rather than on the basis of heterogeneous historical data. Provides a solution to benchmarking in segments where there are few or no public recovery ratings Performs equally well for entities publicly rated by Standard & Poor s Ratings Services and those that are not publicly rated, as well as those that are listed and not listed, independent of the size of an entity or facility Once benchmarks are generated, various statistical tests are performed and reported comparing your facility ratings with Standard & Poor s assessments Sample Histogram of Debt Cushion and Collateral Percent of Observations (%) to to to to to to to to to to 100 >=100 Recovery Rate (%) Debt Cushion >50% with Collateral Debt Cushion <=50% with Collateral Debt Cushion >50% without Collateral Debt Cushion <=50% without Collateral For illustrative purpose only Using S&P Capital IQ s LossStats database of facilities, the bimodal behavior of recovery rates known from the retail sector appears to hold for large obligors as well. Depending on key facility characteristics (here, debt cushion and secured debt versus unsecured debt) actual recovery rates tend to be either very high (right-hand side) or very low (left-hand side). Relatively few observations are centered around mean values of recovery.
