The risk manager uses a hypothetical scenario where Bank Gamma and Bank Phi are the only counterparties involved and provides the following specific details regarding Bank Gamma:

Additional essential information about both banks is given as follows:
Parameter | Bank Gamma | Bank Phi |
---|---|---|
Annual probability of default | 2.5% | 1.8% |
Recovery rate | 82% | 92% |
