Alternative Risk Transfer (ART) & Credit Protection Model
This model provides the framework for structuring, evaluating, and pricing credit protection and risk-distribution mechanisms. It acts as the validation rule-set for the Security Package and Facility Structure sections of credit proposals, particularly when the bank is originating risk that it intends to lay off or protect.
1. Credit Insurance vs. Financial Guaranty vs. CDS
While economically similar, these instruments have distinct legal and structural triggers that affect enforceability:
- Financial Guaranty / Letter of Credit: Unconditional, irrevocable obligation to pay upon first demand. Usually triggered by a specific failure to pay on a specific reference asset.
- Credit Insurance: Often subject to exclusions, materiality conditions, and proof of loss. May cover a broader portfolio but with slower payout mechanics.
- Credit Default Swap (CDS): Triggered by an ISDA-defined "Credit Event" (failure to pay, bankruptcy, repudiation, and controversially, restructuring). CDS triggers require public disclosure of the event, whereas insurance can be triggered by non-public defaults. CDS physical settlement introduces a "cheapest-to-deliver" option value.
2. Risk Distribution (Syndication & Layering)
When the bank acts as an arranger or lead underwriter, the model assesses how the retained risk is protected:
- Horizontal Layering: First-loss vs. mezzanine vs. senior tranches.
- Proportional Reinsurance / Syndication: Pro-rata sharing of the exposure.
- Wrong-Way Risk: The risk that the protection provider's probability of default is positively correlated with the underlying borrower's default (e.g., guaranteeing a steel company with a letter of credit from a bank heavily exposed to the same steel sector).
3. Evaluation Rules for Credit Committees
When a credit proposal relies on external protection (e.g., an offshore bank guarantee), the engine must validate:
- Trigger Alignment: Does the guarantee trigger exactly match the underlying facility's default conditions?
- Wrong-Way Risk: Is the guarantor economically independent of the borrower?
- Cost of Protection: Who bears the premium, and is it deducted from the RAROC calculation?
