LGD calculation is based on estimates of individual loss parameters. In this<br />

process, it is necessary to differentiate at least by individual customer type, collateral<br />

type, <strong>and</strong> transaction type according to the given level of materiality. If<br />

the existing loss history does not allow the direct estimation of parameters, it is<br />

possible to estimate individual loss parameters on the basis of their individual<br />

components (see table above). For each loss parameter, we explain the application<br />

of these methods in greater detail below.<br />

Book Value Loss<br />

Book value losses can arise in the course of restructuring due to a partial writeoff<br />

or in the course of liquidation. The liquidation itself can be based on bankruptcy<br />

realization or the realization of collateral.<br />

In the case of realization in bankruptcy/composition proceedings, historical<br />

default data are used for the purpose of direct estimation. In order to reduce<br />

the margin of fluctuation around the average recovery rate, it is advisable to perform<br />

segmentation by individual customer type. In the case of corporate customers,<br />

additional segmentation by industry may be helpful in order to account<br />

for their typical assets structure <strong>and</strong> thus also their probable recovery rates. As<br />
