The Three Pillars of Credit Risk
Under modern credit risk modeling guidelines, risk rating models are segmented into three distinct operational pillars to compile an aggregate risk score.
Financial Risk (40%)
- Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) > 1.25x for term obligations
- TOL/ATNW and Debt/EBITDA leverage benchmarks
- Working capital cycle stability (Current & Quick Ratios)
- Operating profit margins & interest coverage ratios
Business & Industry (30%)
- Industry cyclicality (boom, stagnation, depression cycles)
- Market share, competitive position, and entry barriers
- Regulatory vulnerability & compliance risks
- ESG materiality & climate-related credit risk checks
Management Risk (30%)
- CIBIL Score > 750 (Retail) or satisfactory CMR rating
- Clear background (no wilful defaulter or SMA-2 lists)
- Promoter experience and secondary succession planning
- Quality of disclosure, audit integrity, and EWS signals
Internal Rating Scale & Basel III Weights
Standardizing internal risk grades is critical to calculate Risk Weighted Assets (RWA) under the Basel III Framework.
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) Guidelines
Aligned with the latest RBI guidelines on Expected Credit Loss (ECL) frameworks, banks are required to classify loan portfolios into three stages based on changes in credit risk since initial recognition:
Stage 1: Performing
Standard assets with no Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) since sanction. **Requires 12-Month ECL provisioning**.
Stage 2: Underperforming
Assets exhibiting Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) (e.g., SMA-1, SMA-2, or credit score drops). **Requires Lifetime ECL provisioning**.
Stage 3: Non-Performing
Credit-impaired assets where a default has occurred (SMA-2 defaults, restructuring, or 90+ DPD). **Requires Lifetime ECL provisioning with high haircuts**.
