Specialized Credit Risk Modeling for Development Projects

Traditional credit risk models are often inadequate for assessing the complex, long-term, and high-impact nature of development projects undertaken by Development Finance Institutions (DFIs). This course provides specialized training in **advanced credit risk modeling techniques** tailored for project finance, infrastructure lending, and lending in challenging markets. Participants will learn how to integrate non-financial, developmental, and political risks into Probability of Default (PD) and Loss Given Default (LGD) models. The program focuses on customizing methodologies like **Project Finance Modeling (PFM)** and incorporating risk mitigants to produce more accurate risk ratings that align with both financial prudence and the DFI's developmental mandate.
