What is the difference between 12 months expected credit losses and lifetime expected credit losses?
Are the calculations the same? I am confused about the 12 months expected credit losses
For the lifetime expected credit losses, is the calculation is the present value of cash shortfalls multiply by the probability of default?
What about the 12 months expected credit losses?
December 3, 2021 at 6:58 am #642361The same except:
Lifetime – probability of default at any time in the life of the loan
12 month- probability of default at any time in the next 12 months
December 4, 2021 at 3:28 am #642435Can you provide an example for the calculation of 12 months expected credit losses?
In all the past papers that I have done so far, only requires us to calculate the lifetime expected credit losses
Does that mean the 12 months expected credit losses will be given most of the time?
December 4, 2021 at 3:44 am #642437I think I just understood what you said
Is it the difference between 12 months expected credit losses and lifetime expected credit losses is due to the “percentage used for the probability of default” ?
Did I understand that correctly?
December 4, 2021 at 2:43 pm #642495Yes – the % will be lower if it is 12 month losses.
