These are typical situations in which credit risk manifests itself.

According to the Basel Accord, a global regulatory framework for financial institutions, credit risk is one of the three fundamental risks a bank or any other regulated financial institution has to face when operating in the markets (the two other risks being a market risk and operational risk). As the 2008 financial crisis has shown us, a correct understanding of credit risk and the ability to manage it are fundamental in today's world.... [-]
