MODEL OVERVIEW
This Excel model is designed as a ready-to-use template for calculating Expected Credit Loss (ECL) under IFRS 9 for Loans and Bonds. It supports up to 1,000 loans and 1,000 bonds simultaneously, with fully configurable user assumptions and outputs structured for quick analysis and reporting.
The model has been developed with both practical usability and auditability in mind. It is structured around clear input tables, automated calculation engines, and dynamic dashboards. The modular setup ensures flexibility for different portfolios, while maintaining compliance with IFRS 9 requirements.
The model adheres to established best practices in financial modelling, with built-in instructions, validation checks, and error controls to ensure transparency, accuracy, and ease of use.
WHAT IS IFRS 9 ECL?
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) under IFRS 9 is the forward‑looking measure of credit risk that requires financial institutions and corporates to recognize potential losses on loans, bonds, and receivables before actual default occurs. It incorporates probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD), and exposure at default (EAD), with classification into Stage 1, 2, or 3 depending on credit risk deterioration.
KEY OUTPUTS
- Loan / Bond-level results: ECL calculated for each loan and bond, with stage classification clearly flagged.
- Portfolio summaries: Total carrying amount and ECL split by stage (1/2/3) and by instrument type (loans vs bonds)
- Ratio of ECL to latest carrying amount
- Dashboard visuals: Pie charts showing stage distribution and risk / credit rating distribution for loans and bonds.
