Linking Macroeconomic Dynamics to Georgian Credit Portfolio Risk

Abstract

The following study develops a dynamic credit risk model for the Georgian banking portfolio and investigates the effects that macroeconomic (systemic) factors have on credit risk. A SUR model is estimated for the Non-Performing Loan ratio in seven sectors as a function of a lagged dependent variable, macroeconomic factors, and lagged contagion effects. Based on the estimation results, I discuss the impact of macroeconomic factors (such as GDP growth and exchange rate depreciation) on sector-specific credit risk. Given the estimated model, I further conduct stochastic simulations to analyze the expected losses under two hypothetical scenarios: a shock to real GDP gap and a shock to FX rate depreciation. Based on the assumptions on loss-given default and exposure at default, I find a significant impact of systemic shocks on the aggregate credit risk, but this impact varies across different sectors.
