RAROC profile and corporate credit pricing model derived from Pillar 3 disclosures.
Raiffeisen Bank International is a Austria-based bank with approximately EUR 45bn of corporate credit exposure (EAD) under the Mixed approach to credit risk capital. The numbers below come directly from Raiffeisen Bank International's most recent Pillar 3 CR6 regulatory filings and are used to model how this bank prices corporate credit facilities.
Raiffeisen Bank International is a smaller corporate book by disclosed EAD (58 of 59). Its cost-to-income ratio of 52.9% is structurally efficient (+3.1pp vs the 59-bank cross-section average of 49.8%). The corporate portfolio is predominantly investment-grade, with an EAD-weighted average PD of 1.5% against a cross-bank average of 2.1%.
The consolidated book blends A-IRB and F-IRB sub-portfolios, so the headline PD and LGD averages mask meaningful dispersion between segments — relevant when benchmarking specific sectors or geographies. Unsecured LGD disclosed at 45.0% is +8.2pp against the 36.8% cross-bank average, indicating a harder workout profile than the peer median and pushing up capital consumption on defaulted exposures.
On the standardised BBB+ EUR 25M 5-year term loan used across every bank profile, Raiffeisen Bank International lands in the lower half of the pricing ranking (#53 of 59), with a RAROC of 6.69% and a minimum spread of 266bp to reach the 12% hurdle.
