CECL Peer Group Selection & Application

For current expected credit loss (CECL) modeling, historical loss experience is a crucial component to help project future loss experience.

In this whitepaper, Abrigo advisory experts explain when financial institutions typically need peer data for CECL and provide information on how to construct defensible peer groups.
