1 white paper Loss Forecasting Methodologies Approaches to Successful Risk Management March 2009 Executive Summary The ability to accurately forecast risk can have tremendous benefits to an organization. As new customers are booked, as accounts age and as the economic environment changes, the expected losses on a portfolio can vary greatly. Recent regulatory changes combined with increased pressure to accurately predict future earnings have pushed risk management to the forefront of business strategy. Understanding the different components with which to forecast losses, and knowing when and how to use each element of information, allows for greater control of portfolio management, and results in better and more profitable account management strategies. This paper discusses the most common approaches to loss forecasting, and highlights the benefits and drawbacks to each. Make every decision count. TM
2 Forecasting Techniques There are three common contributing performance patterns used in the analysis and forecasting of expected losses in the consumer finance industry: Net flow rates Vintage loss curves Score distributions These evaluation patterns all have strengths and weaknesses when it comes to a standalone forecast of future performance, and they rely on different data and operating environments. Following is a description of each technique of evaluation and an explanation of its strengths and weaknesses. Net Flow Rate A net flow rate is a forecast in which the cash flow from one level of delinquency (lower) to another (higher) is applied to the current portfolio outstanding mix. This technique follows the movement of cash outstandings from a payment status of current through all the delinquency buckets to chargeoff. Net flow rates from bucket to bucket are calculated by dividing each month s delinquency bucket by the delinquency bucket from the prior month. The net flow is really an aggregation of all the flows into a bucket regardless of where they come from. Once historical net flow rates by bucket have been calculated, their patterns over time are examined and future flow rates are estimated. This technique is widely used to forecast the next 12 to 24 months losses at the portfolio level. It is also widely used to forecast delinquent accounts by bucket for use as input for collections capacity plans. This methodology has been proven to be highly accurate over the immediate next six months for revolving portfolios and longer for closed-end portfolios. At the portfolio level, accuracy farther out over time may be diminished by a reliance on forecasts of the total outstandings. The net flow rate technique is very accurate at forecasting static pools, especially of closed-end loans, over their entire lives. This is because pool liquidation is much easier to estimate than the size of the entire portfolio by month, which is influenced by new business. The best use of this methodology occurs when the portfolio is segmented into vintages and possibly other sub-segments, each of which is separately forecasted, then rolled up to the portfolio level. In addition to producing the most accurate monthly forecasts, the net flow methodology provides the highest degree of detail and offers insights and diagnostics. By breaking losses down into component flows, portfolio management can easily see where change is originating and the pace of its impact: Current to bucket 1 is solely dependent on asset quality and, to a lesser extent, the economy. This observed flow can be distorted by payment processing breakdown, but this is rare and can easily be accounted for. The current to bucket 1 flow shows a lifetime curve pattern, usually rising gradually then leveling off for a few years and finally turning down somewhat. Bucket 1 to bucket 2 is dependent on the quality and efficacy of collections work, and to some extent, the economy. If risk segmentation tools are used to treat accounts differently in bucket 1, the net flow rate may change from previous levels, but this change is usually compensated for in the next bucket s flow rate Fair Isaac Corporation.

3 Net flow rates in all later buckets are dependent on collections efficiency, and to some extent, the economy. They tend to be flat over their lives, unless there is an artificial buildup in the last bucket (120+, foreclosure inventory, REO) caused by processing workflow instability or loss recognition policies. The net flow rates in earlier buckets typically show seasonal patterns. Vintage Loss Curves This methodology tracks losses by month over the life of portfolio segments, usually vintages or cohorts, and assumes that more recent segments will track along the same path. When older vintages have run their course, timing curves can be developed to show what percentage of lifetime losses have occurred after each month. Losses from recent vintages are then forecast by dividing actual losses to date by the percentage of lifetime losses expected to have occurred by that date. This methodology is straightforward and usually produces reasonable forecasts of closed-end portfolio segments. It is susceptible, however, to every influence that could cause a timing shift or an overall change in the level of losses. Examples of such influences are collections staffing, the economy, structural changes such as centralization or decentralization of collections, and loss recognition policies. This technique works best if the denominator for calculating the percentage is the sum of all initial loan balances, not a declining receivable. It has been very inaccurate for revolving portfolios because the changing nature of these products (balance transfers, teaser rates) has caused a deviation from former patterns. This methodology is not useful for forecasting losses by month and does not provide any insights or diagnostics. Score Distributions This methodology uses the percentage of actual losses by score interval, either from a completed portfolio segment or over some time period, as a baseline from which to forecast losses from other portfolio segments. It is reasonably accurate for forecasting short lifetime losses (24-36 months) or future periods of one to three years. The effective time period depends on the observation period used in developing the score. The long period is needed because many losses will come from current and bucket 1 accounts, where the scores are most accurate. Score distributions are not very useful in forecasting what will charge-off from later delinquency buckets at the beginning of a year. In fact, some observed historical percentage is usually used to augment the score-based forecast. This is the best technique for estimating the losses in brand new segments with minimal seasoning and for very small segments for which net flow rates may be unstable due to low sample sizes. It is susceptible to the same influences as the other techniques, and as with vintage loss curves, it provides no diagnostics or insights. Multidirectional Flow Rates Although not included above, a mention should be made of attempts to forecast using a delinquency movement matrix in place of net flow rates. Instead of just using net flows, matrices of flows in all directions are multiplied from month to month to take into account movement in every direction. Different organizations have tested this methodology and found it to be impractical in most cases. This method demands very large numbers of accounts in each segment in order to provide robust and unbiased estimators of each transition probability between buckets for each month on file Fair Isaac Corporation.

4 We do recommend that Delinquency Movement Matrices be produced to use as a diagnostic tool for determining the cause of change in net flow rates. One reason for instability may be differing goals and incentives for collections. We often see a shift from attempting to collect all past-due money during the year to just collecting enough to hold an account from charging-off at the end of the year. This can be picked up as seasonality in the net flow method. FICO s Integrated Loss Forecasting Methodology Over time, FICO has developed a methodology that incorporates the best aspects of all three techniques. Our method uses the net flow rate from current to bucket 1 by segment and by time in life as the primary driver of the forecast. This flow rate varies significantly by risk level and shows a predictable time in life pattern. The remaining bucket-to-bucket flows are aggregated across segments to complete the forecast. Rigorous analysis is performed to determine the best segments, as the mix of this component is a key driver of overall portfolio performance. Segments frequently utilize factors like the origination score for early life on books and behavior scores for more seasoned accounts, along with other product factors. During our analysis, net flow rates in all buckets are examined carefully and explanations of pattern deviations are sought from the client. Future business objectives and potential strategic changes are also discussed for incorporation. If flow rates are extraordinarily high, for example, we discuss what action is appropriate to correct them and when it should apply so it can be considered in the forecast. Economic characteristics are not incorporated into our Loss Forecasting Methodology. If you are interested in the impact of economics on losses, refer to FICO s Portfolios Stress Testing methodologies. Conclusion Clearly, there are several elements to forecasting losses. The right approach is dependent on organizational need, portfolio characteristics and available data. As portfolios evolve, the best method for managing risk may change as well.
