Some experts flaunted fair value accounting as themain reason of the financial crisis, and did some research on its procyclicality, butsome others advocate fair value accounting. IASB thought it’s lacking of priorexpectations and treatment of risk caused the financial crisis, they propose to replacethe incurred loss by use expected loss model, to reduce loss by excepting risk. Loansis the most important asset of banks, more and more propose to measure loans by fairvalue accounting. How to collect fair value accounting and expected loss model is ofgreat importance to our banks.This article aims at combine fair value accounting and expected loss model, andanalyze their impact on loan impairment.

Latermodify expected loss model based on the goal of modification and the problem ofexpected loss model itself. Finally, this article will give some recommendations onhow to spread expected loss model.Through analysis, expected loss model can heal fluctuation to some extent, butits sensitivity on anticipation make it has a greater procyclicality compared withincurred loss model. the revised expected loss model has a greater advantage onhealing procyclicality and reducing sensitivity. Revised loss model can Effectivelydeal with the impact of changes in economic conditions, provide objective andreasonable accounting in financial market when volatility in macroeconomic time.Expected loss model can be promoted in China after further improvement as follows:improving policies laws and regulations on loan impairment, enhancing the information gathering and repayment anticipation, and increasing the depth andintensity of information disclosure, and separate disclosure on some important case.
