Study shows short exposure and systematic risk exposure affect disposition effect asymmetries.
The paper clarifies long-horizon investment and DCA, showing no risk reduction but different exposure profiles.
Deep learning approximates Bermudan option exposures and future values.
We present a dialogue on Counterparty Credit Risk touching on Credit Value at Risk (Credit VaR), Potential Future Exposure (PFE), Expected Exposure (EE), Expected Positive Exposure (EPE), Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA), Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA), DVA Hedging, Closeout conventions, Netting clauses, Collateral …
Measurement and management of credit concentration risk is critical for banks and relevant for micro-prudential requirements. While several methods exist for measuring credit concentration risk within institutions, the systemic effect of different institutions' exposures to the same counterparties has been less explore…
Paper optimizes neural networks for Bermudan option pricing with faster convergence and risk management tools.
Systemic risk arises as a multi-layer network phenomenon. Layers represent direct financial exposures of various types, including interbank liabilities, derivative- or foreign exchange exposures. Another network layer of systemic risk emerges through common asset holdings of financial institutions. Strongly overlapping…
Study analyzes crypto asset risk exposures using a divide-and-conquer approach.
The study models mortgage prepayment risk, accounting for behavioral uncertainty, and provides replication strategies.
A risk-averse agent hedges her exposure to a non-tradable risk factor using a correlated traded asset and accounts for the impact of her trades on both factors. The effect of the agent's trades on is referred to as cross-impact. By solving the agent's stochastic control problem, we obtain a closed-form expr…
The paper tackles robust design selection for online experiments under uncertain interference mechanisms.
We study the risk criterion for investments based on the drawdown from the maximal value of the capital in the past. Depending on investor's risk attitude, thus his risk exposure, we find that the distribution of these drawdowns follows a general power law. In particular, if the risk exposure is Kelly-optimal, the expo…
Paper uses neural networks to compress large portfolios of options, reducing risk and capital requirements.
Sparse grids reduce xVA exposure evaluations by up to 6000 times.
We present an approach to derivative exposure management based on subjective and implied probabilities. We suggest to maximize the valuation difference subject to risk constraints and propose a class of risk measures derived from the subjective distribution. We illustrate this process with specific examples for the two…
Management of systemic risk in financial markets is traditionally associated with setting (higher) capital requirements for market participants. There are indications that while equity ratios have been increased massively since the financial crisis, systemic risk levels might not have lowered, but even increased. It ha…
The study tests a functional-form restriction on risk exposure dynamics using margin debt data.
This research develops a new framework to measure AI investment returns considering both gains and risks.
We consider thin incomplete financial markets, where traders with heterogeneous preferences and risk exposures have motive to behave strategically regarding the demand schedules they submit, thereby impacting prices and allocations. We argue that traders relatively more exposed to market risk tend to submit more elasti…
Develops a climate risk model for asset managers.
Financial markets are exposed to systemic risk, the risk that a substantial fraction of the system ceases to function and collapses. Systemic risk can propagate through different mechanisms and channels of contagion. One important form of financial contagion arises from indirect interconnections between financial insti…
We introduce a new method to calculate the credit exposure of European and path-dependent options. The proposed method is able to calculate accurate expected exposure and potential future exposure profiles under the risk-neutral and the real-world measure. Key advantage of is that it delivers an accuracy comparable to …
The paper proposes using function approximations to reduce the computational burden in measuring counterparty credit exposure.
We develop a methodology for index tracking and risk exposure control using financial derivatives. Under a continuous-time diffusion framework for price evolution, we present a pathwise approach to construct dynamic portfolios of derivatives in order to gain exposure to an index and/or market factors that may be not di…
A new method uses counterfactual learning to improve recommendation system evaluation.
Employs granular data to create a multilayer network for euro area banks, revealing distinct risk patterns.
In spite of the growing theoretical literature on cascades of failures in interbank lending networks, empirical results seem to suggest that networks of direct exposures are not the major channel of financial contagion. In this paper we show that networks of interbank exposures can however significantly amplify contagi…
This paper maps the insurability of AI risks across various insurance products.
Proposes a new method to assess Wrong-Way Risk in cross-currency swaps.
The kind of realized mission inflows the sensitivity to risk. Among other factors, the risk results from decision about liquid assets investment level and liquid assets financing. The higher the risk exposure, the higher the level of liquid assets. If the specific risk exposure is smaller, the more aggressive could be …
Currency carry trade is the investment strategy that involves selling low interest rate currencies in order to purchase higher interest rate currencies, thus profiting from the interest rate differentials. This is a well known financial puzzle to explain, since assuming foreign exchange risk is uninhibited and the mark…
Efficiently models Wrong-Way Risk in FVA without full Monte Carlo.
Defines SETR to measure carbon transition risk for investors.
This paper investigates two mechanisms of financial contagion that are, firstly, the correlated exposure of banks to the same source of risk, and secondly the direct exposure of banks in the interbank market. It will consider a random network of banks which are connected through the inter-bank market and will discuss t…
Unlike other industries in which intellectual property is patentable, the financial industry relies on trade secrecy to protect its business processes and methods, which can obscure critical financial risk exposures from regulators and the public. We develop methods for sharing and aggregating such risk exposures that …
Over-the-counter derivatives have contributed significantly to the effectiveness and efficiency of the international financial system but also entail significant counterparty credit risk. Collateralization is one of the most important and widespread credit risk mitigation techniques used in derivatives transactions. Ho…
Study examines ETFs for Pakistan exposure, highlighting risks and performance.
The study analyzes ETFs' portfolio optimization and tail-risk management.
Stocks of more resilient firms outperformed during the pandemic, reflecting disaster risk.
We introduce a new method to calculate the credit exposure of Bermudan, discretely monitored barrier and European options. Core of the approach is the application of the dynamic Chebyshev method of Glau et al. (2019). The dynamic Chebyshev method delivers a closed form approximation of the option prices along the paths…
Potential Future Exposure (PFE) is a standard risk metric for managing business unit counterparty credit risk but there is debate on how it should be calculated. The debate has been whether to use one of many historical ("physical") measures (one per calibration setup), or one of many risk-neutral measures (one per num…
Paper introduces a new method for efficient portfolio risk quantification.
This study tackles XVA model risk and computational effort in derivatives pricing.
We study the impact of central clearing of over-the-counter (OTC) transactions on counterparty exposures in a market with OTC transactions across several asset classes with heterogeneous characteristics. The impact of introducing a central counterparty (CCP) on expected interdealer exposure is determined by the tradeof…
We discuss the systemic risk implied by the interbank exposures reconstructed with the maximum entropy method. The maximum entropy method severely underestimates the risk of interbank contagion by assuming a fully connected network, while in reality the structure of the interbank network is sparsely connected. Here, we…
