Obiettivi formativi
Students will gain a thorough understanding of the practices currently used by banks when originating (pricing) a bank loan. The course will offer insight into the various areas of the bank involved when pricing a bank loan (Finance department for funding, Chief Risk Officer area for loans balancesheet provisioning, CFO area for capital allocation). The course will then present students the case for the impact on the Bank Loan Pricing of the new Securitization Framework and advanced Machine Learning techniques for default prediction (internal PD model) and projection (satellite PD model).
Risultati apprendimento attesi
At the end of the course students will gain an overview of the various departments at work within a bank when originating a loan. They will also get a measure of the impact on loan pricing of alternative Machine Learning methodologies for default prediction and the impact of the new securitization framework for loan portfolio capital allocation.

Programma
Below a list of subjects to be discussed in class:
Market price (a) vs Origination Price (b):
(a) Interest Rate Curve calibration, Credit Spread Curve calibration, CDS curve calibration.
(b) Bank Loan Origination pricing via target IRR: CoL (cost of liquidity) + CoC (cost of credit) + CoK (cost of capital).

CoC: Lifetime Expected Loss. Rating Transition Matrices. Probability of Default and Loss Given Default.
CoC: Default prediction models. Typical dataset structure, module layout and prediction horizon.
CoC: Default prediction models. Univariate and Multivariate Logistic regressions.
CoC: Default prediction models. Input variables encoding and Cross Validation.
CoC: Default prediction models. Regression and Classification Trees.
CoC: Low Default portfolios PD estimation and backtesting
CoC: Default prediction models. Bank Loan Pricing impact of alternative machine learning and ensemble algorithms (Random Forest: Bagging (Bootstrap aggregating) and Boosting ensemble algorithms.).
CoC: Macro-economic scenario projections. Satellite Credit Portfolio Models as sparse problems.
CoC: Satellite Credit Portfolio Models: Bayesian Model Average.
CoL: Blended curve construction.
CoL: regulatory framework: LCR and NSFR.
CoK: Regulatory capital and Risk Weighted Assets
CoK: Risk Weighted Assets for Standardized and Advanced Internal Rating Based Banks.
CoK: new securitization framework and its impact on the RWA for a securitized portfolio
CoK: Risk Weighted Assets calculation for a securitized portfolio
CoK: Significant Risk Transfer for a securitized portfolio
Prerequisiti
Students must have taken either the Data Mining and Computational Statistics or the Risk Management exam.

In order to complete the final assignment, students will need to have programming skills in any language of their choice (MatLab, R, Python, C).
Metodi didattici
In presence classes only. Videosharing with the class material. Seminars on specific topics are going to be taught within the Laboratory by professionals from leading Financial Institutions.
