Definitions
- the present application relates to a system and method of calculating debt service capacity of a loan applicant using inter alia cash flow projections.
- a method of calculating debt service capacity of a loan applicant includes:
- a system for calculating debt service capacity of a loan applicant includes:
- a memory for storing data relating to:
- loan applicant's transaction data a loan risk structure; loan risk factors; financial variables; projected loan applicants' data; and reconciliation rules;
- processor in connection with the memory, the processor adapted to access data stored in the memory and to:
- Figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example methodology
- Figure 2 illustrates how a loan applicant and their financial activities are grouped
- Figure 3 illustrates a risk structure reflected into an accounting and financial format
- Figure 4 illustrates the reconciliation and enhancement of data
- Figure 5 illustrates the adjustment of extrapolations for age groups
- Figure 6 illustrates adjustment factors applied to the age-group interpolated curve for each financial line
- Figure 7 illustrates the expected time to revenue interruption (ETRI) mapped to loan tenor
- Figure 8 shows Expenditure Line Discounting for Financial Factors/Variables and Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)
- Figure 9 shows a loan zone
- Figure 10 shows projected cash annuities within the loan zone
- Figure 11 illustrates an example of revenue projection refinement with profile matching
- Figure 12 illustrates an example of a system to implement the methodologies described herein.
- loan applicant will be a customer or potential customer of the financial institution.
- loan applicant and customer are used interchangeably in the remainder of the document.
- the method and system uses the following inputs.
- This data set includes information pertaining to the loan applicant's financial transaction history, for example:
- This input includes all data used to make the loan computation prudent for a particular user (financial institution) and compliant in terms of the user's legislative requirements.
- loan types There are three main types of loan structures with full range time-scales and their date and time feeds.
- the loan types are:
- Time-based - where the user defines a loan by a fixed time period to repay for all customers.
- all customers where prudent, will receive a loan with a repayment period of one week.
- Amount-based where the user defines a fixed amount that can be lent to all customers. As an illustrative example all customers will receive a loan of fixed amount of R100.00 at varying times.
- These inputs are the inputs including the customer repayment data for further interest rate margin pricing and re-pricing updates. This is usually obtained from the financial institution where the loan applicant may already have existing loans.
- the system manages the risk and return profile of the customer and classified, ranked and consolidated customer group.
- Figure 2 illustrates how the customer and their financial activities are grouped.
- the system orders the customers and customer's financial activity according the following ranking:
- the system also captures, classifies and stores customer profile information (all the information found in customer application form) for further computation steps. 1. Capture and Index Customer Transaction Data
- the system captures any and all customer transactions from any combination of the following electronic sources:
- Each transaction item is indexed to enable accurate computation of customer's future earnings and expenditure trends per transaction items as one would normally account for with generally accepted account principles (GAAP) as exemplified in the table below.
- GAAP generally accepted account principles
- indexation relates to time-based indexation.
- indexes are used to tag earnings and expenditure items dynamic behaviour through time and projections:
- Profile data input as Input 1 above is used to qualify revenue and expenditure in further computational steps.
- customer profile data such as:
- the system maps the risk ranked customers according to step 0 with their corresponding transaction data as per the above indexation system in step 1. 3. Reconcile and Enhance Data
- step 2 the data from step 2 is reconciled and enhanced.
- the customer trade or profession data field is reconciled and enhanced by cross-referring it with the indexed and classified revenue item from customer transaction data.
- the revenue data will typically itemise the employer and hence be used as a more reliable reflection of the customer's data field.
- the system overrides the customer input data in the customer profile with the trade deduced from the revenue transaction item and this logic.
- the system has coded logic that measures and analyses the periodicity between revenue events and cross-refers it with the source of revenue or customer employment. This analysis is used to re-classify the customer revenue type as either fixed (for example an permanent employer) or irregular (for example, as temporary employer).
- the system has coded logic to read expenditure items from known banks, lenders or financial service providers and correctly list customer's liabilities. This is used as the basis of a crosscheck for customer liability register.
- the system has a coded logic to cross-reference and reconcile the customer's stated ID with names from other reliable and public sources of ID data.
- the system captures the financial institutions views on various economic and financial factors and variables such as inter alia interest rate forward curves, inflation projections, money supply and salary escalation which will be used for further computation.
- the system accepts four main types of loan structures as the basis for loan computations.
- the user may chose to retail: 1.
- a time-based loan structure one which has set and fixed loan tenor period for a particular time-scale as the basis of loan computation);
- a loan amount-based loan structure (one which has set and fixed loan amount as the basis of loan computations);
- a clustered (or joint & several) loan structure one which aggregates customers' financial projections as the basis for loan computations
- the system has user's internal compliance requirements and legislative requirements which are translated into code or logic which informs the issue of final loans to be disbursed to customer.
- the following computational paths 7A and 7B refer to time value of money (TVM) computations with prudential adjustments.
- Path 7A computes the consolidated customer group view for debt service capacity and path 7B computes the individual customer view for debt service capacity.
- the system takes the customer group financial statements and projects them using a number of simple and reasonable curve-fitting or trend-line techniques. This extrapolation process is not driven by any underlying financial assumptions or theory. This is performed for the expected life time of the customer. Extrapolation is particularly important for the income and cash flow statements.
- the customer population is used and classified into age groups. This trend-line is then used to refine financial extrapolations. This is illustrated in Figure 5.
- the forward views from step 4 are used and the adjustment factors are applied to the age-group interpolated curve for each financial line (earnings and expenditure etc).
- the transport expenditure line item will be typically adjusted or weighted for fuel inflation. This is illustrated in Figure 6.
- the system measures the periodicity between revenue events and computes user defined statistical (average, mean, mode, standard deviation etc) time period for the customer to reach temporary ( as opposed to terminal) loss of revenue.
- ETRI is the time the customer group takes to get to no revenue, for a chosen time-scale.
- LTCR is a user-defined prudential factor to be applied to ETRI
- LT is calculated with the following formula:
- LT ETRI / LTCR (ETRI divided by LTCR)
- the system measures other variants of cash flow interruption used in the appropriate computation of other customer sub-groups, for example:
- EFCFI Expected time to free cash flow interruption
- ENII Expected time to net income interruption
- EEEI Expected time to essential expenditure interruption
- the system further discounts the expenditure lines after 7A.4 with a debt service coverage ratio factor (DSCR).
- DSCR debt service coverage ratio factor
- This DSCR-adjusted expenditure curve with the LT vertical line forms the boundaries of the loan zone.
- the loan zone is a maximum theoretical boundary or zone defined within a time and money envelope.
- the loan zone which is the lending envelope or shape within A, B, C and D. This is the maximum amount of future cash annuities the customer group could potentially borrow.
- Prudent cash annuities are the projected cash annuities that square-in the loan zone.
- the projected cash annuities are driven by the selected loan structure and time-scale to issue the loan.
- GDSC is calculated as the: • Present value of the group projected cash annuities (PCA 1 , PCA 2 , PCA 3 , PCA 4 , PCA 5 ,) of Y Rand high;
- GDSC PV (J(X 1-5 ), 5X, series PCA 1-5 )
- PV (J(X) 1 X 1-5 , PCA 1-5 ) (PCA 1 Z(Hi 1 ) 1 ) + (PCA 2 /(1+i 2 ) 2 ) + (PCA 3 /(1+i 3 ) 3 ) + (PCV(I +i 4 ) 4 ) + (PCA 5 /(1+i 5 ) 5 )
- the system reconciles GDSC with the customer group's balance sheet or solvency (debt to net worth) position.
- the system reads financial institution's prudential settings for debt (liabilities) to equity (net worth or net asset value). This is derived from transactional data and profile data as the sum of customer groups assets and liabilities pro-rated down to meet this solvency restriction on the GDSC calculation.
- the system pro-rates the GDSC down until it meets the use-set D:E.
- the system takes the customer financial statements and projects them using number of simple and reasonable curve-fitting or trend-line techniques. This extrapolation process is not driven by any underlying financial assumptions or principle. The extrapolation is performed for the expected life time of the customer. Extrapolation is particularly important for the income and cash flow statements.
- the following step uses customer population, classifies it into age groups and uses this trend-line or curve to refine financial extrapolations in Figure 5.
- the system takes the user's forward views of economic variables and financial factors from step 4 and applies the adjustment factors to the age- group interpolated curve for each financial line (earnings and expenditure etc).
- the transport expenditure line item will be typically adjusted or weighted for fuel inflation.
- the system uses customer's position in employment to enhance revenue projections.
- the system reads the applying customer's age, trade, employer and employment position searches for a customer peer with the same trade, employer and employment but a year older.
- the older customer peer becomes the future projection bench mark for the applying customers.
- This step in the system measures the expected time to revenue interruption (ETRI) and maps it to loan tenor or projected cash annuity tenor via a formula.
- This formula has user-defined factor known as loan tenor coverage ratio (LTCR).
- the system measures the periodicity between revenue events and computes user-defined statistical (average, mean, mode, standard deviation etc) time period for a customer to reach temporary (as opposed to terminal) loss of revenue or ETRI.
- ETRI is the time the customer group takes to get to no revenue, for a chosen time-scale.
- LTCR is a user-defined prudential factor to be applied to ETRI LT is calculated with the following formula:
- LT ETRI / LTCR (ETRI divided by LTCR)
- the system also measures other variants of time to cash flow interruption for their respective customer sub-groups, for example:
- EFCFI expected time to free cash flow interruption
- ENII expected time to net income interruption
- EEEI essential expenditure interruption
- this step further discounts the group factors and variables with the DSCR.
- This double discount for group factor and variables and DSCR are to generate a loan (for example, transport expenditure to generate a car loan) to form a loan zone.
- This step further discounts the expenditure lines after 7A.5 with the DSCR as in Figure 8.
- the loan zone is formed by the boundary outlined by the line in Figure 8 with the vertical line making the ETRI the shape formed by points ABCD in Figure 9.
- This loan zone is a maximum theoretical boundary where one could prudently square-in a series of projected cash annuities as the basis for present value or discounted cash flow calculations for a given time-scale.
- Prudent cash annuities are the projected cash annuities that could within this loan zone.
- the projected cash annuities are driven by the loan structure selection and time-scale to make the loan.
- CDSC customer debt service capacity
- CDSC is calculated as the:
- GDSC PV (J(X L5 ), 5X, series PCA 1-5 )
- the system reconciles CDSC with user policy on individual solvency positions.
- the system reads user's settings for debt (liabilities) to equity (net-worth or net asset value) which is derived from transactional data and profile date for the sum of customer groups assets and liabilities; and reconciles this restriction to the CDSC calculation.
- the system pro-rates the CDSC down until it meets the user set D: E.
- This reconciliation step guarantees that the demand or issue of creditZloans does not exceed the prudent supply of creditZloan as computed at GDSC level.
- the system takes feeds from user on customer arrears and write-offs as the basis for full cost recovery of these losses via re-pricing these future loans.
- the system takes the sum in step 9.1 and divides it by the GDSC computed base retail interest rate. This marginal interest rate is added the base retail interest and used to price future loans.
- the system includes a memory 10 for storing data.
- the memory may be in the form of a database.
- the data stored in an example embodiment relates to: a loan applicant's transaction data; a loan risk structure; loan risk factors; financial variables; projected loan applicants' data; and reconciliation rules; and
- a processor 12 is in connection with the memory 10.
- the processor 12 is adapted to access data stored in the memory 10 and to index, reclassify and group the loan applicant's transaction data and profile data into a loan risk structure and to use the data to calculate loan applicants' debt service capacity with time value of money calculations.
- the processor may include modules which are implemented by a machine- readable medium embodying instructions which, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform any of the methods described above.
- modules could be located on one or more servers operated by one or more institutions.
