Naturally the business has the right to appeal an unfavorable credit decision, but the final authority and decision will rest with the CRO. and hence Shinsei Bank has adopted a specific approval process for dealing with them. Recognizing that risk can emerge from not only credit, market or operational aspects, on occasion, Finance, Compliance, Legal or other specialized functions, will be invited to participate in the decision process, in the format of a Transaction Approval Committee. This allows for the thorough evaluation of reputational risk, compliance risk, suitability risk, legal risk or tax/regulatory aspects to ensure that the Bank and its customers avoid Institutional Credit Risk Management Credit Risk Institutional as the risk of loss due to a counterpart Credit risk is defined debt obligations. defaulting on contractual in risk, avoiding excessive concentration adequate return on to particular obligors, and managing the particular sectors or a an awareness of potential losses under credit portfolio with worst-case scenario. which defines spe- prehensively revised “Credit Risk Policy” products, markets, cific policy on customer attributes, risks should be taken industries and transaction types where credit provision oper- or limited, and clarifies basic policies for risk management ations and specific guidelines for credit Policy,” “Credit together with the Bank’s “Credit Risk Procedures” and other related procedures. transactions and into credit risk management for individual as follows. portfolio-based credit risk management, Cre Unexpected Loss calculated by subtracting expect- ed loss from estimated maximum loss of which time horizon is one year. Measured by subtracting expected loss from Credit Value at Risk (Credit VaR). Credit VaR is the estimat- ed maximum loss calculated by a simulation utilizing data including probability of default, exposure at default, loss given default, etc. Measured by the most appropriate combination chosen for each investment from some methods such as default loss distribution, value range distri- bution, sensitivity to other factors, etc. Measured by calculating estimated maximum loss from market risk based on Value at Risk method (VaR method), of which time horizon is one year. Sum of Japanese yen interest rate risk measured by Value at Risk method (VaR method), and other curren- cies interest rate risk measured by BPV method. Estimated maximum loss calculated by a simulation based on frequency and sensitivity distributions which will be derived from historical internal loss records and scenario loss data.
