Sector Risk Ratings

A Unique Tool for Active Sector-Based Risk Management

Copyright © 2005 Global Insight

Introduction to Global Insight’s World Industry Service (WIS) Sector Risk Ratings (SRR)

Why Focus on Sector-Level Risk?

    

Quantifies the sector impact on credit quality relative to that from country or geography Accommodates the greater role of global supply chains and trade in business operations Sector benchmarks link macroeconomic events to impacts on companies and portfolios New Basle II regulations —new requirements for internal risk measures and controls Current phase of business cycle portends changes in credit quality & bankruptcies

What are WIS Sector Risk Ratings?

SRR are derived from WIS’ globally consistent sector benchmarks and forecasts

 

SRR indicate changes in sector-level credit quality across countries and industries Validation of SRR with bond defaults and corporate bankruptcies, country and globally

How to Use WIS Sector Risk Ratings?

 

Monitor changes in risk ratings across sectors and within a set of countries/geographies Use framework and navigation facilitates to “drill down” for more granular information on “flagged” sectors or countries

 

Perform stress testing and correlations for active portfolio risk management Quantitative drivers for forecasting loss reserve requirements, bankruptcies, and defaults

What Are WIS Sector Risk Ratings (SRR)?

SRR Measure and Rank Sector-Based Credit and Operating Risks Unique SRR methodology provides globally consistent, forward-looking benchmarks of credit quality for each sector and country A composite rating from lowest (1) to highest (10) is created for each sector, built up from 40 separate risk factors

Comparative metrics for each sector and country, history and forecast

Globally consistent sector benchmarks of credit and operating risks

Ratings are created from structural and cyclical indicators that conform with standard credit risk frameworks

User-friendly tool for risk management and stress testing

Scientific, transparent construct, and long track record

Composite Risk Ratings Are Built Up from 40 Individual Risk Factors that Reflect and Predict Changes in Credit Quality

Sector risk factors are derived from the standard credit risk framework used in corporate lending and fixed income portfolios

Growth Risk

Growth in real revenue

Growth in sales

Volatility, turning points

Profitability Risk

Pricing strength

Operating profitability

   

Free cash flow and variability Return on invested capital Fixed asset turnover Degree of operating leverage

Supply Risk

Capital intensity

Capacity overhang

Depreciation cost of sales Sector risk factors show the influence of industry structure, stage in lifecycle, and sovereign/ macroeconomic environment on industry risk profiles

Market Structure Risk

Industry structure

Dependence on suppliers and customers

  

Dependence on energy and labor Barriers to entry and exit Technology and substitution

Economic & Country Risk

Sector cyclicality

Sector interest rate sensitivity

SRRs Provide a “Top-Down” Complement to Standard “Bottom-Up” Credit Risk Frameworks for Corporates

The Top-Down Consistency and Credit Framework of WIS SRR Provide Sector Benchmarks that Complement Traditional Bottom-Up Analysis

Credit Risk Framework

A) Internal Liquidity & Solvency B) Business & Operational Risk Growth Risk Operational Characteristics Oversupply Risk C) Industry Risk Industry Structure Risk Sector's Political & Economic Risk D) Financial Risk Capital Structure Rating & Equity Risk E) External & Market Liquidity F) Country & FX Risk Top Down Macro & Sector Poor Excellent Excellent Excellent Good Excellent Excellent Excellent Average Average Good Excellent Excellent Bottom Up Company Financials Good Average Average Good Average Average Good Average Good Excellent Good Average -- • • • •

Risk ratings and underlying data are credit benchmarks for companies, “peer groups,” and portfolios Risk metrics include income statement and cash flow items, metrics of industry structure, and commercial environment Transmit “high-level” macro economic events down to sector-level risks and credit benchmarks Link macro and industry views directly to portfolio exposures for simulation, stress testing, and active risk management

Sector Risk Ratings Help Evaluate and Anticipate Changes in Credit Profiles of Companies and Portfolios

Quantify the Risk Profile of Key Sectors in a Loan or Bond Portfolio

Is portfolio risk high or low? Is it improving or deteriorating?

 

Identify groups of correlated industries that improve/deteriorate together Use rigorous framework for evaluating diversification and strategy

Monitor and Anticipate Changes in Sector Credit Quality

Monitor composite ratings, flag sectors to “drill down” for deeper investigation

Which risk factors are driving the change?

What is the geographical composition of the sector change?

Stress test the portfolio through simulation and “what if” scenarios

Forecast Changes in Bankruptcies, Defaults, and Loan Loss Requirements

For individual sectors as well as for entire portfolio

Use SRR as Sector Benchmark for Corporate Credit Research

Compare company risk prospects to that of its own sector peer group

Analyze market prospects for key client markets into which it sells product

17

WIS SRR Provides a Framework for Stress Testing Credit Portfolios Under Variety of Scenarios and Conditions

Evaluate the Impact of Stress Factors on Portfolio Credit Quality Given Certain Hypothetical Macroeconomic, Government Policy, and Industry-Specific Events

    

Derive the sector and portfolio impact of internal “house views” Analyze the potential impact on portfolio values of unlikely but plausible events Evaluate expected portfolio losses over a given time horizon, assess the capital adequacy of individual firms and industries Research the migration of the company credit ratings, changes in expected losses, and economic capital on the industry level Address shortcomings of value-at-risk analysis References for Stress Testing of Portfolios:

WIS SRR Uses Two Common Techniques for Stress Testing of Sectors and Custom Portfolios

1) Scenario Tests

Risk managers identify portfolio’s key financial drivers and then formulate scenarios in which these drivers are stressed beyond standard VAR levels Event-driven approach analysis addresses the manner in which plausible but unlikely events might affect the risk factors relevant to a portfolio

2) Sensitivity Tests

Assess the impact of large movements in financial variables on portfolios without specifying the reasons for such movements Examples include a 100-basis-point increase across the yield curve and a sudden, 20% depreciation of currency

Global Insight Can Help:

 Develop rationale and design for macro- and industry-level scenarios and simulations for the purpose of assessing impacts on credit quality in portfolio segments  Use our tools and economic models to simulate sensitivity tests and macro environments; derive the sector impacts on sales, pricing, profits, and capex; and calculate the changes in Sector Risk Ratings and the credit prospects for sectors and portfolios  Quantify likely changes in migration patterns in sector credit quality 19

Typical Process for Stress Testing Portfolios —

Flow Chart of Basic Steps for Stress Testing Identify Stress Factors Simulate Macro Models to Derive Industry Drivers Simulation of Industry Performances Asses Impact On SRR and Portfolio Credit Quality Common Stress Factors include:

• • • • • •

Oil prices GDP growth Inflation Interest rate Currency Policy Use Global Insight’s Economic Models of Macro and Industry to Calculate the Response to a Range of Scenarios

WIS provides the link between macroeconomic scenarios and

performance of portfolio exposures Project movements in default migration

Develop groups of industries that are hurt or helped by scenarios

Simulate changes in sector correlations Use Impacts on Sector Sales, Profits, Capex, Free Cash Flow, and SRR Factors to Derive Changes in Credit Quality for Sectors and Custom Portfolios Calculate impacts on key Financial Ratios Used in Agency Ratings:

EBITDA interest coverage

Operating margins

Free cash flow/total debt

Return on invested capital
