Loan Default Rate

What is a failure rate?

The failure rate is Percentage of loanswhich have been at least once in a state of failure during the reporting period.

‍

When is a loan considered a loan in default?

According to European legislation, a loan is considered to be loan in defaultif at least one of the following situations occurs:

1. Probability of non-payment

If there is any reason why we may believe that the client not paying off the loan in full, or fail to meet their financial obligations without the need for extraordinary steps — such as applying collateral.

2. Prolonged delay

The owner of the project is more than 90 days overdue with a substantial amount of the loan in question.

‍

What the contract allows

If it is stated in the contract that the client (or also the project owner) may defer or change the installments (e.g. in the event of a delay in repayment), it is not considered a delay. In this case, a new payment schedule is followed.

‍

Other situations in which a loan can be marked as a default

In addition to the above, the following scenarios are taken into account:

• Debt restructuring — for example, a significant reduction in the amount owed or deferred payments.
  
• Insolvency or bankruptcy — the owner of the project has applied for bankruptcy or has been granted judicial approval.
  

These cases are also translated into the calculation of the so-called. failure rates.

‍

How is the failure rate calculated?

The failure rate is determined by the following formula:

Default rate (%) = (number of loans that failed at least once during the year/number of active loans at the beginning of the year) × 100

• They are being watched twelve-month period.
  
• It counts each loan separately according to a specific project.
  
• The amount of the loan does not affect -- every loan has the same weight.
  
• Short-term loans calculation do not distort.
  
  

What is the expected failure rate?

Očekávaná míra selhání je odhad, který vychází z historických dat a budoucích trendů. Nejde o přesnou předpověď, ale o výpočet založený na průměrné míře selhání za minimálně poslední dvě po sobě jdoucí 12měsíční období a zohlednění makroekonomických očekávání.

Transparency and risk categorisation

Každý úvěr zařazujeme do konkrétní sdružené rizikové kategorie (A, B a C). Míra selhání se pak počítá zvlášť pro každou z těchto kategorií a je zveřejňována podle článku 20 Nařízení Evropského parlamentu a Rady (EU) 2020/1503.
