Managing Credit Portfolio Default Risk with Credit Rating Transition Matrices
A credit rating transition matrix shows, for a group of companies, the proportion that migrate from one credit rating category to another over a set time period. For example it could show the proportion of firms with rating AA that migrate to AAA, A, BBB, BB, B and C, plus those that remain in the AA rating category, in the course of a single year. For some use cases, it also includes a Default column to show the proportion of firms that default.
