Documentation

Definition

The write-down rule for a valuation step determines how the system treats a negative difference between the market value and the book value during a key date valuation:

• No Write-Down:

  No flow is generated.

• Write Down to Market Value:

  The system generates a write-down flow amounting to the difference between the book value and the market value.

• Write Down to Purchase Value:

  If the market value is lower than the purchase value plus existing amortizations and cumulative repayments, a write-down flow is only generated for the difference between the market value and the purchase value.
