Resumo(s)
This study focuses on the development of a macroeconomic credit risk model for the prediction of corporate default rates, conditional on the observed economic environment. Data relative to the Portuguese economy was utilized for the development
of the model, regarding the period from 2002 to 2012. The results suggest a clear link
between macroeconomic factors, such as GDP, interest rates, unemployment and corporate indebtness, to the default rates observed. Furthermore, the introduction of a Merton-based analysis of the loss distributions permitted the analysis of expected and
unexpected losses, alongside Basel II capital requirement evolutions.
