Computation Formulae

EAD · LGD · MAS 612 unsecured floor (FR-LGD-04 / 05)

EAD (Exposure at Default)
EAD = Outstanding + (Undrawn × CCF)
Stage-appropriate CCF applied. Stage 2 / Stage 3 CCF values exceed Stage 1 to reflect elevated drawdown risk on undrawn commitments.
LGD (Loss Given Default)
LGD = max(LGD_floor, 1 − Recovery%)
Recovery% derives from collateral value × (1 − applicable haircut), normalised by exposure.
MAS 612 Unsecured Floor
LGD_floor (Unsecured) = 45%
Regulatory floor enforced per MAS Notice 612 paragraph 4.3 — the unsecured LGD cannot fall below 45% regardless of model output.
