Compute Market Risk Capital Charge Using FRTB-SA Framework with CRR2

Open Live Script

This example creates an frtbsa object and uses the ISDA® FRTB-SA framework to support workflows for calculating the capital market risk capital charge in accordance with the Capital Requirements Regulation 2 (CRR2). FRTB-SA (Standardized Approach for Fundamental Review of Trading Book) is a Basel Committee on Banking Supervision framework for calculating market capital risk requirements is based on CRR2, which extends the Basel regulations to include additional requirements for market risk, counterparty credit risk, and capital buffers specific to the EU.

To calculate the total market risk charge using CRR2, you need to use only the charge object function. However, for the purpose of illustration, this example also demonstrates the frtbsa object functions (sbm, drc, rrao).

Create frtbsa Object

format bank

Define the FRTB-SA CRIF file.

myCRIF = "FRTBSA_CRIF_CRR2.csv";

Define the DRC reference date. 

DrcRefCOBDate = datetime("21-Sep-2023");

Create the FRTB-SA object in accordance with CRR2.

myFRTBSA = frtbsa(myCRIF, DRCValuationDate=DrcRefCOBDate, Regulation='CRR2')
myFRTBSA = 
  frtbsa with properties:

Compute RRAO Capital Charge

The residual risk add-on (RRAO) charge covers risks that are not fully captured by the other components of the FRTB capital charges, particularly those arising from positions with exotic or nonlinear payoffs, as well as other risks that are residual in nature. Use rrao with the frtbsa object to compute the RRAO charge results for each portfolio.
