Provided by independent or captive finance companies, the consumer credit is normally granted or denied without taking into account its effect on the retailer s profitability. Denying credit to finance a high profit margin product is more damaging to the companies profits than if such refusal is about the sale of lower margin product. This suggests that there is an opportunity to improve the profitability in this sales channel. The objective of this research was to check the possibility to increase the Brazilian retailers profitability by introducing the retail products operating margin as an additional parameter of the consumer credit analysis. Simulations using tangents to ROC curves, as proposed by Stein (2005), made possible to confirm, through a new balance of type I and type II errors, that the maximization of corporate earnings occurs when using operating retail margins for determining cutoffs in consumer credit models. / Uma das mais importantes ferramentas de financiamento no varejo brasileiro é o crédito direto ao consumidor oferecido nos estabelecimentos por ocasião da compra. Operado através de financeiras cativas ou parceiras, o crédito é, normalmente, concedido ou negado sem que se leve em conta seu efeito na lucratividade do varejista. Quando se recusa o financiamento para um produto de grande margem de lucro, o efeito sobre os ganhos da empresa é evidentemente maior do que quando essa recusa inibe a venda de produto de menor margem, o que sugere haver ineficácia no processo. Esta pesquisa visou verificar se há espaço para aumentar a rentabilidade no varejo brasileiro, introduzindo a margem operacional nos critérios utilizados para concessão de crédito direto ao consumidor. Utilizando a curva ROC e a abordagem oferecida por Stein (2005), construíram-se simulações em torno de valores reais praticados no mercado, que permitiram confirmar, através de um novo balanceamento dos erros tipo I e tipo II, que ocorre a maximização de ganhos empresarias quando as margens operacionais do varejo são consideradas para a determinação de pontos de corte em modelos de crédito direto ao consumidor.

These spreads show the default probability of a country. The methodology proposed in this paper applied for Argentina, Korea, Ecuador, Indonesia, Mexico, Peru, Turkey, Ukraine, Venezuela and Rússia. We could show that a single factor model following a lognormal process captures the probability of default. We also show that the macro economic variables like inflation, unemployment e growth do not explain the dependent variable of this study. Each country responds differently to the economic crisis that leads to don’t honor their commitments debts. / Este trabalho explora a realização de default soberano em função da estrutura de spreads de CDS (Credit Default Swap). Pode-se dizer que os spreads revelam a probabilidade de default de um país. Aplicamos a metodologia proposta neste trabalho para Argentina, Coreia, Equador, Indonésia, México, Peru, Turquia, Ucrânia, Venezuela e Rússia. Nós mostramos que um modelo de um único fator seguindo um processo lognormal captura a probabilidade de default. Também mostramos que as variáveis macro econômicas inflação, desemprego e crescimento não explicam a variável dependente do estudo (probabilidade de default). Cada país reage de maneira diferente a crise econômica que a leva a não honrar seus compromissos com as dívidas contraídas.

The main aim of my final thesis is to familiar reader with different ways of measuring credit risk by means of particular structural models of credit risk. This issue has been already described by foreign authors. Though, neither Czech nor Slovak economists have been deeply involved in this topic so far. For this reason, I have decided to focus on those models and both describe them as well as put them into the practice. My final thesis gradually focus on individual detailed model description in each chapter in following sequence: Credit Metrics, Black-School model, Merton model, KMV, Credit Grades. Moreover, it also targets model's construction as well as practical application. Regarding practical model's application, Black-School model is applied on IBM and KMV on Kraft Foods Company. Admittedly, that proves the fact that structural models are not only theoretical models, but also practical models applyable on real companies. Finally, I will compare all above mentioned models in selected parameters.

Within the body of work is an description and analysis of the method of financing choosen by a given company. Also included is a comparison to two other offers for financing the project from other banking institutions, which amongst them have comparative track records in this type of field. The analysis should provide the reader with a clear understanding into the process of financing development projects.

This thesis deals with the operational business lending . There is an analysis of current capabilities in the lending operations of banks subjectively defined , and the selection of the best product in the specific context of a fictitious business in this thesis. Based on the results of the analysis and comparison is given a rank of banks and they provide products that are suitable for fictitious businesses.

Since the global financial crisis of 2008, regulatory bodies worldwide have implementedincreasingly stringent requirements for measuring and pricing default risk in financialderivatives. Counterparty Credit Risk (CCR) serves as the measure for default risk infinancial derivatives, and Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) is the pricing method used toincorporate this default risk into derivatives prices. To calculate the CVA, one needs the risk-neutral Probability of Default (PD) for the counterparty, which is the centre in this type ofderivative.The traditional method for calculating risk-neutral probabilities of default involves constructingcredit curves, calibrated using the credit derivative Credit Default Swap (CDS). However,liquidity issues in CDS trading present a major challenge, as the majority of counterpartieslack liquid CDS spreads. This poses the difficult question of how to model risk-neutral PDwithout liquid CDS spreads.The current method for generating proxy credit curves, introduced by the Japanese BankNomura in 2013, involves a cross-sectional linear regression model. Although this model issufficient in most cases, it often generates credit curves unsuitable for larger counterpartiesin more volatile times. In this thesis, we introduce two Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)models trained on similar entities, which use CDS spreads as input. Our introduced modelsshow some improvement in generating proxy credit curves compared to the Nomura model,especially during times of higher volatility. While the result were more in line with the tradedCDS-market, there remains room for improvement in the model structure by using a moreextensive dataset. / Ända sedan 2008 års finanskris har styrande finansiella organ ökat kraven för mätning ochprissättning av konkursrisk inom derivat. Ett område av särskilt högt intresse för detta arbete ärmotpartskreditrisker (CCR). I detta är Kreditvärdesjustering (CVA) den huvudsakliga metodenför prissättning av konkursrisk inom finansiella derivat och för att kunna få fram ett värde avCVA behövs en risk-neutral konkurssannolikhet (PD).En av de traditionella metoderna för att räkna ut denna sannolikhet är genom att skapakreditkurvor som sedan är kalibrerade utifrån CDS:ar. Detta handlade derivat (CDS) finns baraför ett mindre antal företag över hela världen vilket gör att en majoritet av marknaden saknaren tillräckligt handlad CDS. Lösning på detta är att ta fram proxy CDS för ett motsvarande bolag.Idag görs detta framförallt med en tvärsnitts-regressionsmodell som introducerades 2013 avden japanska banken Nomura. Den skapar i många fall rimliga kurvor men ett problem den harär att den oftare gör proxyn lägre än vad den borde vara.I detta arbete introducerar vi istället en LSTM modell som tränas på liknande företag. Resultatetav detta är att vi får en bättre modell i många fall för att skapa en proxy kurva men som delvishar liknande brister som Nomura modellen. Men med fortsatta undersökningar inom områdetsamt med mer data kan detta skapa en mer exakt och säkrare proxy modell.
