58 From SAP ECC Enterprise Extension Financial Services 6.0 (EA-FS 600), if the price calculator is to use the Hull-White model to price interest-rate options, but cannot find any suitable volatility parameters, then it automatically calls a function for calibrating the model. The calibration process optimizes the existing data by taking the current implied Black-Scholes volatility values for swaptions or caplets and using them to determine the Hull-White volatility parameters. The resulting parameters give the best possible calibration between the option prices obtained from the Hull-White model, and those from the Black-Scholes model. Previously, there was a separate transaction that you could use to calibrate groups of transactions. The new function calibrates the data for individual transactions automatically.

Bond issuances are borrowing transactions, and are mainly used in the netting method. ABS, MBS, and securities lending are subject to counterparty risk, issuer risk, and settlement risk, whereas bond issuances are subject to issuer risk only. The rating used to calculate the issuer risk of the position (for ABS, MBS, and securities lending) is taken from the class. If the class does not contain a rating, the rating of the issuer is used. Note: You can create these transactions in Treasury and Risk Management only. SAP AG 53

These scenarios are used in the liquidity evaluation in Asset/Liability Management. A facility is a credit line that can be used for different transactions. The current drawing on SAP AG 55

61 the facility is governed by the current drawings of the transactions that are assigned to the facility. The difference between the facility volume and the current drawing is referred to as the free line. The customer can draw upon the free line at any time. Utilization scenarios define how the customer could use this free line. Note: This function is not used to map the requirements of Principle II of the German Banking Act. It is used merely to simulate drawings upon the credit lines of accounts (variable transactions, BCA accounts, SEM accounts) and loans. Other contracts (such as collateral) are not covered by this function. The planned repayment frequency for accounts or loans is also not covered by this function. Utilization scenarios cannot reflect cash flows from due date scenarios for accounts, nor cash flows from interest payments for loans. Effects on Customizing See also To simulate the effect on liquidity of the undrawn parts of facilities, you need to define utilization scenarios and assign a valuation rule.

You can use these scenarios to simulate the effect on liquidity that occurs when securities or loans are sold. By using liquidation scenarios, you can find out to what extent the liquidity risk of a bank changes when it liquidities securities in a way that was not planned, or changes the structure of its loans.
