  14. Standard Approach VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  15. Modern Approach Financial Institution VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  16. Example • You live in Herzliya and work in Tel-Aviv. • When do you have to leave your home to be at work at 8:30? VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  17. How much can we lose? • Everything • correct, but useless answer. • How much can we lose realistically? VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  18. Definition • VaR is defined as the predicted worst-case loss at a specific confidence level (e.g. 99%) over a certain period of time. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  19. Definition (Jorion) • VaR is the worst loss over a target horizon with a given level of confidence. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  20. VaR1% 1% Profit/Loss VaR VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  21. VaR 1% Meaning of VaR • A portfolio manager has a daily VaR equal $1M at 99% confidence level. • This means that there is only one chance in 100 that a daily loss bigger than $1M occurs, under normal market conditions. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  22. 1% of worst cases Returns year VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  23. Main Ideas • A few well known risk factors • Historical data + economic views • Diversification effects • Testability • Easy to communicate VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  24. value scenarios sensitivity Conventional Analysis $ Risk factor VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  26. Important • VaR is a necessary, but not sufficient procedure for controlling risk. • It must be supplemented by limits and controls, in addition to an independent risk-management function. • Sound risk-management practices. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  37. Financial Risk Management Following P. Jorion, Value at Risk, McGraw-Hill Chapter 3 Regulatory Capital Standards with VaR http://pluto.mscc.huji.ac.il/~mswiener/zvi.html

  38. Why regulation? • Externalities • Deposit insurance • Moral hazard – less incentives to control risk • Basel Accord 1988 • measure of solvency = Cooke ratio VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  39. Cooke ratio • The Basel Accord requires capital to be at least 8% of the total risk-weighted assets of the bank. • Capital definition is broad: • Tier 1. Stocks, reserves (retained earnings) ( 50%) • Tier 2. Perpetual securities, undisclosed reserves, subordinated debt >5 years. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  40. Weights Asset Type • 0% Cash • Claims on OECD central government • local currency claims on central banks • 20% Cash to be received • OECD banks and regulated securities firms • non-OECD banks below 1 year • multilateral development banks • foreign OECD public sector entities • 50% residential mortgage loans VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  41. Weights Asset Type • 100% Claims on private sector (corp. debt, equity…) • Claims on non-OECD banks above 1 year • Real estate • Plant and equipment • At national discretion • 0-50% Claims on domestic OECD public-sector entities • OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development): Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK, Japan, Finland, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Czech Republic, Hungary, Korea and Poland. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  42. Credit Risk Charge VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  43. Activity Restrictions • Restrictions on large risks (over 10% of capital) • must be reported • over 25% prohibited • total of large risks can not exceed 8*capital VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  44. Criticism of 1988 Approach • Regulatory arbitrage (securitization) • Credit derivatives • Inadequate differentiation of credit risks • Non-recognition of term structure effect • Non-recognition of risk mitigation • Non-recognition of diversification • Non-recognition of market risk VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  45. Market Risk Amendment 1996 • Trading book – financial instruments that intentionally held for short-term resale and are typically marked-to-market • Banking book – other instruments, like loans. • TRC = CRC + MRC • Tier 3 capital: short-term subordinated debt (must be less than 2.5*Tier1) VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  46. The Standardized Model • Maturity bands • Partial netting • Duration weights • No diversification across risks VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  47. The Internal Models Approach • Quantitative parameters for VaR • 10 business days or 2 weeks • 99% confidence level • at least one year of historical data updated at least quarterly • Treatment of correlations – can be recognized VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  48. 1 day can be scaled by square root of 10 • Typically average times k is used. • k initially is set to 3, but later it can be increased • Specific Risk Charge SRC is added. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  49. Basel Rules MRC • Market Risk Charge = MRC • SRC - specific risk charge, k 3. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3

  50. Backtesting • Verification of Risk Management models. • Comparison if the model’s forecast VaR with the actual outcome - P&L. • Exception occurs when actual loss exceeds VaR. • After exception - explanation and action. VaR-PJorion-Ch1-3
