Credit Risk

A bank’s due diligence process is a key safeguard to mitigating credit risk.

Banks should be able to demonstrate a professional level of credit analysis for all credit ‐ related (i.e. non ‐ US Treasury or explicitly supported) securities.

Per the Uniform Agreement on the Classification and Appraisal of Securities Held by Depository Institutions:

“The depth of analysis should be a function of the security’s risk characteristics, including its size, nature, and complexity. Individual security analysis should form the basis of any classification determination.”
