I read this book since credit risk management of collateral
loans is key to manage the performance of CLO tranches. In fact, it may be
useful for any structured product’s credit analysis.
Individual level
There are two default prediction methods for individual debt:
regression analysis and structured method. Regression analysis uses logistic regression
and explanatory variables to predict default probability of a borrower. A
credit score can be derived during this process to indicate borrower’s ability to
repay the debt.
