Construction of business default scenarios based on system dynamics models

One of the modern procedures, which are recommended to banks for risk assessment, is reverse stress testing. It is a procedure of building of scenarios, which lead to a specified loss level. Knowledge of such scenarios allows banks to mitigate the consequences of their implementation. In the context of credit risk, reverse stress testing makes it possible to identify macroeconomic conditions leading to a given level of credit portfolio losses. However, the current credit risk assessment models are not suitable for solving the problems of reverse stress testing. Widely known models do not take into account the structure of specific companies, do not allow investigating the development of crisis scenarios in time and need a large sample of data on similar enterprises. This article is devoted to the construction of system dynamics models of enterprises in commercial and agricultural sectors of the Russian economy. Research demonstrates the possibility of using system dynamics models to determine the macroeconomic scenarios, leading to the default of a company. In system dynamics enterprises are represented by system consisting of constantly interacting elements and external parameters. The links between system elements express in terms of functions and differential equations, which specify the dynamics of the model. Thus, the company’s stability in relation to different macroeconomic scenarios can be considered. The models of investigated enterprises are implemented in the Insightmaker system.
