Course Description

This course takes you to a deep dive into the Market Risk module in Calypso (previously called ERS Risk). 

 

It will start with the required setup that you need in order to use Market Risk and then create the analyses. 


Market Risk solution enables the user to estimate Value-at-Risk, Hypothetical PL and to Back-test VaR against Hypothetical PL. Value-at-Risk can be estimated using Historical or Monte Carlo simulation methods. Drill-down and roll-up capabilities allow users to quickly identify areas of concern and explain sources of risk.

VaR, Hypothetical PL and Back testing results are generated by running specific Market Risk analysis, also referred to as Sim and HypPL analysis respectively. The sections will describe each supported analysis, and how to configure and run them.

 

 

With Market Risk Solution you will be able to do the following:

 

  • Two-step process including shifts generation and risk metric computation

 

  • Value at Risk can be estimated using Monte Carlo or Historical simulation, and different VaRMetrics are provided (Var, ES, Incremental Var)

 

  • Flexible parametrization in terms of hierarchies and metrics computation

 

  • Drill-down and roll-up capabilities allow the identification or areas of concern and explain the source of risk

 

  • Back-testing performed against hypothetical P&L can be used for model validation purposes
