This survey illuminated industry behavior with respect to several dimensions of credit risk analysis. That said, many topics were deliberately out of scope. Two such areas are counterparty credit concerns and derivative securities, such as credit default swaps. There are many open questions in this space, such as: How are institutions monitoring and managing counterparty risk? How are any limits set, reviewed and adjusted? How are these products priced and modeled? How are counterparties selected for individual transactions? How does the institution integrate margin requirements in this domain with the other forms of risk analysis? Future research on industry credit risk practices may also want to focus on why certain organizations have different credit risk modeling approaches. From this survey, we know that more quantitative firms are larger; invest in more varied, and modeling-intensive, securities; and apply credit risk more broadly across the institution, but have left open the question of what leads firms to a develop and apply a more quantitative approach in the first place. Also of interest is how institutions have been able to navigate changes and additions to their modeling approach: we see that many firms plan on modifying and upgrading their approach to credit, though most are constrained by a variety of internal and external forces. The potential gains to individual firms, and to the industry as a whole, from relaxing these constraints may be quite large.
