Market Risk is the risk associated with daily
fluctuations in the price of actively traded assets,
liabilities and derivatives - i.e. the risk of losses in
value on an FIs trading book
3
4

FIs need an answer to the following question to understand their exposure to
market risk
How much money will the firm lose on its trading portfolio if the
market has a really bad day, month, year …?
How do we
define a bad day

Value at risk (VaR) is an essential tool used in answering this question

What horizon?
◦ Regulators usually consider “tradable” assets/liabilities as those held for horizons
less than 1 year – these assets/liabilities are included in the trading book and the VaR
◦ FIs usually consider “tradable” assets/liabilities as those held for a much shorter
horizon

Three Main Measurement Methods

RiskMetrics (variance/covariance)

Developed by JPMorgan in 1994
◦ The object was to produce a single number that summarized the firms
market exposure across all markets in which it traded
◦ In 1994 JPMorgan had 120 independent units trading:

From the tables, 5% of the area under the curve is to the right of 1.6449
on the standard normal distribution. So, We know that 5% occurs 1.6449
standard deviations away from the mean (on any normal distribution)
Question: So how many standard deviations from the mean
will 5% occur on the distribution above?

Step #2 Calculate the daily earnings at risk DEAR
a)
Calculate the dollar value of the euro position at the current FX rate 1.36 $/€
V = (€1,400,000)(1.36$/€) = $1,904,000
a)
Calculate the dollar value of the euro position at the extreme FX rate 1.344 $/€
V = (€1,400,000)(1.36-.016449$/€) = $1,880,971
b)
DEAR equals the difference or potential loss in value
V = $1,880,971 – 1,904,000 = – $23,028.60
Based on historical data – There is a 5% chance that the FI’s daily losses on its
FX portfolio will exceed $23,928.06.

Calculate the 95% DEAR – the extreme portfolio return times the total equity

daily losses on its equity portfolio will exceed $18,073.20

The last step is to put it all together
◦ We cannot just add them up because that ignores diversification
◦ we need to account for how bonds, currency and stocks are related


FI’s usually calculate their DEAR and work to reduce portfolio risk when
these DEARs are violated

We have done some pretty simple DEARs but in reality banks trade in
many different markets
In 2008 Citigroup’s DEAR calculation required updating 250,000
correlation and variance parameters


JP Morgan holds:
a) A BBB rated bond portfolio with $12M in face value that it plans to hold for less than 1 month. The portfolio
has an average time to maturity of 7.5 years, aggregate semiannual coupon of 8.3% and average YTM of 9.2%.
b) (ii) A $360.5M position in their equity trading portfolio. The portfolio has a market beta of .73 and the daily
risk free rate is currently 0.003%.
Find JP Morgan’s 99 % DEAR if the mean and standard deviation of daily changes in YTM for BBB rated bonds is
-0.0005 and 0.039 respectively over the last year. The daily mean and standard deviation of market returns is
0.00046 and 0.012 over the last year. The correlation between changes in YTM and market returns is 0.24


Market risk:
◦ A bank’s risk of experiencing losses (on their trading book)
due to market exposure.

Measurement
◦ RiskMetrics
25
Appendix
26
Historical Back Simulation
27

The biggest drawbacks of the RiskMetrics approach is that:
◦
It assumes a normal distribution
 This may not always be appropriate – for example options have a minimum negative return
but unlimited positive return
◦ Correlation must be calculated

The biggest change with historical back simulation is that it:
◦ Does not assume any distribution. It uses the empirical distribution to find the
daily earnings at risk (DEAR)
◦ Do not need to calculate correlations and variances when aggregating risks

Basic Idea
◦ We are going to use historical observations to simulate potential scenarios or
outcomes for tomorrow
28
Suppose an FI has a position in BBB rated zero coupon bonds with total face value of $1,631,483 with
an average maturity of 26 years that it plans to hold for less then 2 months. The average yield to maturity
of the bonds is 13.5%. Find the 95% DEAR of the portfolio.
Find the 5% DEAR for the fixed income portfolio
• We want to find the cutoff value where 5% of all
observations fall below
• Procedure
1. Collect historical changes in interests rates 4
year (1000 observations is a good number)
• We always calculate the change in value
in relation to a change in the market
(interest rates, market return, FX rate)
• The value of the portfolio could be
affected by other factors (liquidity) but
we just want to measure the exposure to
market risk
2. Calculate the change in value for each observation ie
if the interest rate is at 13.5% calculate:
ΔV = P(13.5+ΔI) – P(13.5%)
for each value of ΔI
3. Sort values from largest to smallest loss. Find the 5%
VaR i.e. 95% of all observations fall below this value
VaR(.95) = (1003)(0.05) = 50.15
We used 1003 historical observations

Aggregating each day and
then calculating the VaR
accounts for the correlation.
That is, the interactions
between assets is taken into
account when we create the
full portfolio of bonds stocks
and currency
30

Back simulation relies on prior data
◦ Because it uses historical data, there are relatively few observations.
This decreases the accuracy (statistical precision) of the estimate
◦ We can use more observations but the further back we go the less
relevant those observations become as potential outcomes for tomorrow
◦ We can try to weight prior observations less i.e. give them a lower
probability of occurring
◦ The other solution is just to make up numbers. However, we want to do
that in a reasonable way → Monte Carlo simulation
◦ We are going to generate observations such that the probability that they
occur tomorrow is the same as the probability that they have occurred in
the past

We will do this for the 2 asset case only – things get a little more
complicated for more than 2 assets
Procedure:
1. Generate 2 standard normal variables you can do this in excel using the
following command
=NORMINV(RAND(), 0, 1)
Transform the uniform
variable into a standard normal
Generates a uniform random
variable between 0-1
