问题如下:
As a risk manager for Bank ABC, John is asked to calculate the market risk capital charge of the bank’s trading portfolio under the 1996 internal models approach. The VAR (95%, one-day) of the last trading day is USD 30,000; the average VAR (95%, one-day) for the last 60 trading days is USD 20,000. The multiplier is k=3. Assuming the return of the bank’s trading portfolio is normally distributed, what is the market risk capital charge of the trading portfolio?
选项:
A.USD 84,582
B.USD 189,737
C.USD 268,200
D.USD 134,594
解释:
C is correct. The average VAR times 3 is USD 60,000. Because this is higher than yesterday's VAR, this is the binding number. Multiplying by x 2.323/1.645 = 4.47 gives USD 268,200.
为什么在前一天的VaR和过去60天平均的VaR中选择了较小的那一呢?
能帮忙指出这部分在1996 Amending的讲义里哪一部分吗?因为我只在后面巴3的修正中看到要在risk capital中增加stressed VaR,而这个VaR用的是前一天和过去六十天平均的较大值。
谢谢
