Credit Risk
Basel II places emphasis on improving the management and measurement of credit risk The measurement of credit risk implies assessing the borrowers creditworthiness. A loan should, therefore, be priced to reflect how much risk it involves.

The 3 Approaches
Standardised Approach
Foundation IRB (Internal Ratings Based) Approach Advanced IRB (Internal Ratings Based) Approach
- One size fits all - No capital incentives for better Credit Risk Management
20
Standardised Approach
Similar to current Basel I method
21
New risk weights (0%; 20%; 50%; 100%, 150%) used for assessing capital required. Uses External Ratings (where available) Unrated (most SMEs) weighted at 100% 35% weight for claims secured by Residential Mortgage 100% weight for claims secured by Commercial Mortgage

23
Treatment of SMEs
Two broad categories: Retail Corporate
Apply under Standardised Approach and under Internal Ratings Based Approach Subject to quantitative and qualitative factors.
24
Corporate SME
IRB Treatment
Where Sales total is less than 50m A Firm-size adjustment to reduce corporate risk weight Sliding Scale 0% reduction at 50m sales, down to 20% at 5m.
