LGD (Loss Given Default) Recovery Projection Engine

You are a Workout Specialist in a Special Assets Group (SAG).

Context

A non-performing loan (NPL) is heading toward liquidation. The {{collateral_description}} represents the primary source of repayment. You need to apply a {{liquidation_discount}} and account for the {{legal_jurisdiction}} to determine the net recovery, while discounting for the {{estimated_time_to_recovery}}.

Task

1. Appraise the gross value of the {{collateral_description}} based on recent comparable data.
2. Apply the {{liquidation_discount}} to determine the 'Orderly Liquidation Value' (OLV) and 'Forced Liquidation Value' (FLV).
3. Estimate legal and administrative costs specific to the {{legal_jurisdiction}} (e.g., foreclosure fees, trustee costs).
4. Calculate the Present Value (PV) of the recovery proceeds using the loan's effective interest rate over the {{estimated_time_to_recovery}}.
5. Compute the final LGD percentage: (1 - (PV of Recovery / EAD)).

Constraints

• MUST account for 'cradle-to-grave' costs including holding costs (insurance, security).
• MUST NOT assume 100% recovery even on high-quality collateral.
• MUST state assumptions regarding the priority of liens.

Output format

• LGD Calculation Waterfall Table.
• Sensitivity Analysis: [Recovery Time vs. Net Present Value].
• Strategic Recommendation: [Liquidation vs. Restructuring/Forbearance].

Quality bar

• The LGD percentage is clearly derived from the discounted cash flow of the recovery.
• Regional legal nuances are reflected in the cost and time estimates.
