Recovery Risk Ratings

Recovery Risk Ratings indicate the variability in the extent of recovery from a loan, post default. CRISIL's recovery risk rating gives an indication of loss given a default.

Recovery risk rating conveys:

  • CRISIL's opinion on the recoverability on the rated instrument over the long term, post default.

Recovery risk rating is not:

  • A comment on the timeliness of payment.

The key drivers of a recovery analysis are:

  • Seniority of the instrument.
