This paper proposes an efficient simulation method for calculating credit portfolio risk when risk factors have a heavy-tailed distributions. In modeling heavy tails, its features of return on underlying asset are captured by multivariate [Formula: see text]-Copula. Moreover, we develop a three-step importance sampling (IS) procedure in the [Formula: see text]-copula credit portfolio risk measure model for further variance reduction. Simultaneously, we apply the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm associated with nonlinear optimization technique to solve the problem that estimates the mean-shift vector of the systematic risk factors after the probability measure change. Numerical results show that those methods developed in the [Formula: see text]-copula model can produce large variance reduction relative to the plain Monte Carlo method, to estimate more accurately tail probability of credit portfolio loss distribution.

Credit Portfolio Model

In this article we introduce the novel GCPM package, which represents a generalized credit portfolio model framework. The package includes two of the most popular mod- eling approaches in the banking industry namely the CreditRisk+ and the CreditMetrics model and allows to perform several sensitivity analysis with respect to distributional or functional assumptions. Therefore, besides the pure quanti?cation of credit portfolio risk, the package can be used to explore certain aspects of model risk individually for every arbitrary credit portfolio. In order to guarantee maximum ?exibility, most of the models utilize a Monte Carlo simulation, which is implemented in C++, to achieve the loss dis- tribution. Furthermore, the package also o?ers the possibilities to apply simple pooling techniques to speed up calculations for large portfolios as well as a general importance sample approach. The article concludes with a comprehensive example demonstrating the ?exibility of the package.

In the article we analyzed international and Russian methodological approaches for classification of risk in project finance and identified crucial criteria which provide further framework for development of principles and management mechanism of specialized credit portfolio at commercial bank. Considering relevant literature and taking into account the main purpose of the study, the practical use of aggregation of project finance risk taxonomy was concluded and three groups of risk were proposed: product risk, counterparty risk and portfolio risk. For each group, it was highlighted list of significant risks all of which shall be subsequently integrated into overall assessment of risks’ concentration of specialized credit portfolio together with some management tools.
