Bit of an edge case here. Our client used to lend to a particular sector for many years – however 2-3 years ago they sold the portfolio. Since then though, they have decided to re-enter the market and hope to develop an IRB model (they retain access to their own historical data). Has anyone seen a similar case, and how long did the bank have to wait until they were able to achieve IRB compliance? Bonus points for UK regulated bank answers
