Practitioners have widely observed a disconnect between macroeconomically modeled credit stress and the COVID reality. Of course, there are myriad reasons why macroeconomic forces cannot solely account for the variability in outcomes. Sustained and unprecedented government intervention was the primary contributor, offsetting default through direct payments to consumers, loans to many businesses, and encouraging deferrals to affected borrowers. While these issues were not directly considered in credit stress models, management teams quickly learned, by necessity, how to reduce loss forecasts due to prevailing conditions.
However, as we move sufficiently past the most turbulent COVID-related period, model updates are being challenged with troublesome new in-sample data. What were wildly changing macroeconomic factors driving forecast volatility during the recession are now outside the norm actual values. In order to roll models forward to incorporate new data, model owners are considering how to account for the counterintuitive relationship between their existing predictors and actual losses. This typically involves understanding and addressing technical challenges such as outliers, influence, leverage, smoothing, and overrides.
