Credit Risk
Credit risk was the potential earnings volatility caused by
an obligor's inability or unwillingness to fulfill its payment obligations.
Exposure to credit risks arose primarily from lending activities. It also rose
to a lesser extent, from sales and trading activities, derivatives activities
and from participation in payment transactions and securities settlements.
Credit exposure included current as well as potential credit exposure. Current
credit exposure was represented by the notional value or principal amount of
on-balance sheet financial instruments and off-balance sheet direct credit
substitutes, and by the positive market value of derivative instruments.

control functions.

credit policies specific to their businesses.

process. |
The process was further enhanced by the Facility Risk Rating System, which took
into consideration facility specific considerations such as credit structuring,
collateral, third party guarantees, and transfer risks.
These credit risk rating tools were used to assess the credit quality of the
portfolio, so that deteriorating exposures were quickly identified and
appropriate remedial action was taken...
