CU Clarity is a web-based platform that pulls historical call report data to calculate your CECL reserve. With just a few clicks, you can be CECL compliant with reports that satisfy auditor and examiner requirements.
CU Clarity uses the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity (WARM) method for calculating CECL reserves. The methodology is easy to use thanks to its light data requirements and use of loan pools, and it's recommended by industry leaders like the NCUA.
The solution makes CECL easy:
The annualized loss rate for each loan is pulled from your call report data and pre-loaded into your account. It serves as the foundation of your CECL calculation.
The historical net loss is multiplied by the WARM value. This is the weighted average remaining maturity which estimates the average remaining life of each loan in the pool with consideration to loan prepayment speeds.
Qualitative factors are management adjustments intended to capture current and future conditions that might impact losses. These are essential to your CECL forecast and are expected by most auditors.
