Environnent: ETL, Informatica, First Logic, Java, Java scripts, C++, Unix, WebSphere, Oracle
Scope: This is a Basel II compliance project. Today, collateral value is maintained for existing non-retail loans as required by the bank’s

collateral must be mapped to a defined list of collateral types defined by Basel II and all collateral data must be available for financial
reporting to meet regulator requirements. This project defines both the data needed to meet non-retail Basel II collateral requirements

Default) data requirements needed to process default loans have been included in the scope of this project to address existing LGD data
deficiencies.
