The Problem

Expected loss provisioning cannot be managed with spreadsheet chaos

Banks need to move from delinquency-triggered provisioning to forward-looking expected loss estimation. This requires better portfolio segmentation, configurable risk parameters, historical loss analysis, forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios, and strong governance — across Risk, Finance, and Business teams who currently work in silos.

What banks need for ECL
  • Better portfolio segmentation by product, sector, rating
  • Configurable PD, LGD, EAD assumptions
  • Stage classification logic and override governance
  • Historical loss analysis and forward-looking overlays
  • Macroeconomic scenario simulation capability
  • Provision impact simulation for Finance teams
  • Model governance, traceability, and audit trail
  • Faster management and board-level reporting
What Quantara ECL Accelerator delivers

A structured, repeatable, and explainable ECL readiness layer — built on your existing portfolio data, designed for your existing teams, deployable in days not months.

Banks can begin with anonymized or actual loan portfolio files and progressively move toward deeper system integration as confidence grows.

Key Features

Estimate. Simulate. Explain. Report.

The ECL Accelerator enables banks to upload portfolio data, configure assumptions, calculate expected credit loss, run stress scenarios, and generate management-ready reports — all within a governed platform.

  • Reconciliation against source totals
02
Stage Classification Engine

Classify accounts into IFRS 9-aligned risk stages based on configurable business rules. Full governance over how accounts are categorized.

Stage Definitions

  • Stage 2 — Significant increase in credit risk, lifetime ECL
  • Stage 3 — Credit impaired, lifetime ECL on default basis
Classification Rules
  • DPD-based bucket classification rules
  • Rating downgrade triggers
  • Restructuring and forbearance indicators

03
ECL Calculation Engine

Calculate expected credit loss using configurable PD, LGD, and EAD assumptions at account, segment, product, and portfolio level.

ECL = PD × LGD × EAD
  • Account-level, segment-level, product-level, and portfolio ECL
  • Stage-wise ECL disaggregation with 12-month vs lifetime logic
  • Baseline ECL and multiple stressed ECL scenarios side-by-side
  • Sensitivity to individual parameter changes (PD +10%, LGD +5%)
  • Collateral-adjusted EAD and net ECL calculation
  • Full calculation audit log for every run
04
Provision Impact Simulator

Understand incremental provision requirements across the bank's loan book. Compare current provisions against expected loss and identify pressure points.

  • Current provision vs expected loss provision gap analysis
  • Product-wise and segment-wise incremental provision
  • Stage-wise provision movement and waterfall
  • Top risk-contributing portfolios ranked by provision impact
  • Provision impact by branch, region, sector, and borrower type
