Moody’s Analytics’ Public Expected Default Frequency (EDF) Model

Measure of default probability built upon the Vasicek-Kealhofer structural model Precise credit risk metrics based on real-time equity market information and public financial statements De facto standard, widely used by banks, asset managers, and corporate treasuries in credit risk management and credit valuation

Rank Order Power: North American Corporate Firms

EDF credit measures have exhibited a high degree of predictive accuracy relative to

  • ther risk measures, such as Z scores.

Both relative and absolute performance held up well during the financial crisis. 2001-2007 2008-2010

Rank Order Power: European Corporate Firms

The conclusion is broadly the same for European corporate firms, although absolute power was somewhat lower during the financial crisis. 2001-2007 2008-2010

Rank Order Power: Global Financial Firms

Despite the suddenness and severity of the crisis for global financial firms, rank order power was maintained in the 2008-2010 time period. 2001-2007 2008-2010

Moody’s Analytics’ Corporate Bond Valuation Framework

10

Moody’s Analytics’ valuation framework: built upon risk-neutral valuation methodology Bond Market Spreads Moody’s Analytics’ Fair Value Spread Provides a level play field between bond credit spread and default probability (EDF/PDs)

Spread = (PD x LGD) + Market Price of Risk

EDF-Implied Fair Value Spread: FVS

Percentage of Systematic Risk Term Market Risk Premium Expected Recovery Value EDF: Default Risk

Fair Value Spreads

Linking bond and equity markets through EDFs:

» EDFs (Equity-based PD measure) implies FVS
