Risk-Adjusted Return on Capital (RAROC)

RAROC = [ Revenues – Costing – Taxation – Expected Losses + Return on Capital +/- Transfers ] / Risk Adjusted Capital

Adjusted RAROC = RAROC – β ( Market Return – Risk Free Rate )          

 

Probability of Default

Default Probability = 1 – e lt

We note:

l  =  (Spread) / 1 – Recovery Rate

 

Worst Case Default Rate (WCDR)

WCDR  =  N *  [  N-1 * ( PD )  +  r½ * N-1   ( 0.999 )  /   ( 1 – r )½  ]        

 

Default Correction

rab   =  [ pab  –  (  pa  *  pb )  ] / [ pa * ( 1 –  pa ) ] ½  *  [ pb * ( 1 –  pb ) ] ½
