Abstract

Daily banking practice suggests that there may be contagion effects between portfolios, a fact that has been explicitly recognized through current regulation. This paper describes a model that distinguishes between delinquency in each portfolio and allows inter-portfolio credit risk contagion, including macroeconomic and financial factors. Also, multivariate scenarios regarding portfolios’ credit risks were simulated.
