1 CVA, Basel III and Wrong-Way Risk Dan Rosen Regulatory Capital and CVA Mark-to-market losses due to credit valuation adjustments (CVA) were not directly capitalised. Roughly two thirds of CCR losses were due to CVA losses and only onethird were due to actual defaults. Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (29)

2 Outline Introduction CCR, CVA, management of CVA CCR capital and Basel III Wrong-way risk (WWR) Computing CVA and CVA VaR Wrong-way risk methodology Examples Concluding remarks Counterparty Credit Risk Evolution Economic capital Default risk Basel II (IRB) EPE and alpha Counterparty exposures and limits Hedging CCR JtD risk and CVA CCR valuation: CVA Fundamental vs. Market values (CDS spreads) Unilateral bilateral Economic capital Credit + market risk (CVA) Basel III... CVA is now an integral part of current accounting rules for P&L, and of the new proposal for banking regulation ( Basel III rules)

3 Pricing CCR: Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) CVA is the market value of counterparty credit risk CVA = Risk-free portfolio value true portfolio value accounting for counterparty s default CVA is an integral component of the value of derivatives Now an integral part of accounting rules, and Basel III Prior to mid-27, CVA was either ignored by dealers, or too small to be noticed by customers CVA is measured at the counterparty level Ideally, it should be part of the trade valuation but calculated separately because of portfolio effects In addition to credit spreads (and competition) the CVA charged on a particular trade is affected by: Bank s existing portfolio of trades and the credit mitigation used in the deal Methodology used to determine exposures CVA and Risk Management Some banks started to price and hedge CVA in the mid 199s More recently, more banks started to price and actively hedge CVA Banks currently calculate and manage CVA according to different business models and subject different accounting regimes Various large banks already manage CVA risks as part of their Trading Books: daily MtM, active hedging, enforced market risk limits and intent to transfer out the CVA risks Some banks have opted for central CVA desk Others have opted for CVA desks deployed in their main business units CVA desks sell full counterparty credit insurance to the derivatives trading desks Manage the risks of the CVA after inception of the trades Subject to risk limits and usually do not have a revenue generation budget IACPM 3

4 Dan Rosen Some Definitions Counterparty exposure: economic loss incurred on all outstanding transactions if counterparty defaults Cost of replacing or hedging the contracts at the time of default Accounts for netting and collateral, but is generally not adjusted by possible recoveries More generally, exposures can also be defined as potential losses on credit migration events such as downgrades (e.g. in CreditMetrics) Potential future exposure (PFE): current exposure plus the potential future changes in exposures during the contracts lives Accounts for the aging of the portfolio and underlying market factor movements which directly affect contract values at a future times Example: a pay-fix IRS with negative MtM has current exposure =. If future rates rise, the contract can have a positive value potential exposure to holder Computing CVA Value of the CP portfolio at t N = i i= 1 V ( t) V ( t) Gross CP-level exposure (netting not allowed) Netted CP-level exposure (single agreement) N = i= 1 ( ) max{, V ( t) } E t { V t } E( t) = max ( ), i CP-level (margined) { } E( t) = max V ( t) C( t), 35 3 Counterparty PFE Mean Exposure 95 Percentile Cond.

6 Credit Losses and CVA Unilateral CP-level CVA the bank s discounted loss due to the CP default (recovers a fraction R of the exposure ) CVA obtained by discounting losses and applying the expectation where 1 T L = { } (1 R ) E ( τ ) D τ ( τ ) CVA = (1 R) dp( t) eˆ ( t) [ ] eˆ ( t) = E ˆ t D( t) E( t) E D( t) E( t) τ= t is the risk-neutral discounted expected exposure (EE) at t, conditional on the CPs default at t T (everything is under the risk-neutral measure) Calculating Exposures and CVA by Simulation Banks use Monte Carlo simulation in practice to obtain the distribution of counterparty-level exposures The calculation of CVA and CVA contributions can be easily incorporated to the Monte Carlo simulation of the counterparty-level exposure In general, exposures are simulated separately implicitly assume that they are independent of counterparties credit quality Conditional expectations in the CVA formulae can be replaced by the unconditional ones Dependence of exposure on the counterparty s credit quality can be incorporated in the CVA calculation, if the trade values and credit quality of the bank s counterparties are simulated jointly (both right/wrong-way risk and exposure-limiting agreements) E.g. using a joint process with stochastic intensities, or a copula methodology as in Garcia cespedes et al Need to make model computationally efficient

8 CCR and CVA Capital Charges in Basel III Basel III introduces a new charge for MtM losses (CVA spread risk): associated with a deterioration in the credit worthiness (greater source of losses than outright defaults) The total CCR charges aim to cover default, migration and spread risks Total CCR capital = CCR (default) capital + CVA risk capital Revision of Internal Model Method (IMM) for measuring exposures based on Effective EPE with stressed parameters address wrong-way risk Default risk capital charge: greater of Portfolio capital charge based on Eff EPE using current market data Portfolio capital charge based on Eff EPE using stressed calibration CCR Capital Carge (Basel II) Basel Capital EAD = N j= 1 N LGD j EAD j N j = Eff EPE j α 1 1 ( PD ) ρ N (.1) α = j j 1 ρ EC EC j T ( L ) ( L ) EPE PD j MF ( M, PD ) Credit losses random exposures Credit losses deterministic exposures (EPE) j j Eff EPE = effective EPE (expected positive exposure) Alpha: measures the effect of using deterministic exposures (EPE) instead of stochastic exposures ratio of EC from a joint simulation of market and credit risk factors EC when CP exposures are constant and equal to EPE Eff EPE and M (maturity) based on bank s internal model Supervisory alpha = 1.4 allow for own estimate, subject to floor =

11 Wrong-Way Risk in Basel III Banks must identify exposures that give rise to general WWR Stress testing and scenario analyses to identify risk factors positively correlated with credit worthiness including severe shocks occurring when relationships between risk factors have changed Monitor general wrong way risk by product, by region, by industry, etc. Reports provided to senior management and Board on a regular basis Explicit Pillar I charge for identified specific WWR higher EAD Explicit procedure for identifying, monitoring and controlling specific WWR Instruments for which there is a legal connection between CP and underlying issuer and for which specific WWR has been identified are to be taken out of netting set with other transactions CDSs: use expected loss assuming underlying in liquidation (LGD for swap = 1%) Equity, bond, securities financing: EAD = value of transaction under JtD Analytical CVA and Contributions (Normal Approx.) Analytical expressions Contributions including wrong-way risk Need to modify the approach to obtain the contributions to the CP EE conditional on the CP defaulting For this purpose, we define a Normal copula V ( t) = µ ( t) + σ ( t) X i i i i Y =Φ Same results but instead of the unconditional expectations, standard deviations and correlations of the trade values, we now use the conditional ones ˆ µ ( t) E[ V ( t) τ = t ] = µ ( t) + σ ( t) bφ P( t) i i i i i ˆ σ ( t) StDev[ V ( t) τ= t ] = σ ( t) 1 b 2 i i i i ˆ ρ ( t) = i ρ ( t) bβ ( t) i i 2 2 (1 bi )[1 β ( t)] 1 [ ] 1 [ Pτ ( )] X by b X 2 1 ˆ i = i + i i

12 CCR Capital and Alpha Methodology (Garcia et al) Framework defined by two key components: Non-parametric sampling of exposures from pre-computed PFEs (unconditional) Direct modelling of codependence of and exposures and systematic credit factors (non-parametric exposures sampling also from joint market-credit factor scenarios) Computationally efficient fully leverages pre-computed PFE profiles Minimizes work during the most computationally intensive step Multiple capital calculations model validation, sensitivities, stress testing Model can be applied within general integrated market-credit risk models Stress testing Wrong-way risk and transparency of counterparty concentrations and factors driving exposures Market-credit correlations contrast to industry studies, conservative assumptions, or from a previously estimated market-credit risk model Wrong-Way Risk Correlated Market-Credit General market-credit codependence framework CP exposures (Simulated from market factors) Credit factors defaults Copula parameters: ρ Capital

14 Methods for Calculating CVA with WWR Conditioning on the default interval is computationally infeasible. Requires approximations: Fixed expected exposure at default (can be shown to be conservative) Linear Approximation: When simulating new PD scenarios, calculate CVA using a linear approximation (in PD) to the REP formula: CVA New = CVA Old + ( PD New PD Old ) CVA PD ( ) PD Old Calculating CVA with WWR Based on explicit computations of the derivatives, the linear approximation algorithm is quite fast One can show that (from the analytical formulas for the derivatives) that fixing the expected exposure at default will be conservative (aggressive) in the presence of wrong-way risk (right-way risk). CVA PD

15 Methods for Calculating CVA with WWR Conditioning on the default interval is computationally infeasible Conditioning directly on default exactly at time t k is faster : CVA i = (1 R i ) e ˆ * (t)dp i (t) ˆ e * (t)= E[D(t)E (t) τ = t] Avoids computation of cumulative bivariate normal distributions. Still requires significant computation (inverse normal distributions for each time, counterparty and simulation scenario) Accuracy could be a consideration if the time points are far apart Example: trapezoid Rule (conditioning on exact default time): K e ˆ * (t CVA (1 R i ) k )+ e ˆ * (t k 1 ) P(t k=1 k ) P(t k 1 ) 2 e ˆ * (t k )= D j (t k ) E j (t k ) P(ω j τ i = t k ) j T ( ) Remarks on WWR at the Portfolio Level Integrated market and credit portfolio model While the CVA is the sum of CP CVAs, we must use the same model and correlation parameters to compute CVA at the portfolio level Under a given model (market factor and correlation levels) not all CPs will simultaneously have WWR Stress testing of individual CPs can be done with different set of parameters Exposures E i = f Syst. factor X Copula (X, Z) Codependence of exposures and credit events ( X) i Syst. factor Z Credit events Y = ρ Z+ 1 ρ ε 1 N ( ) ( PD) ρ z PD Z = N 1 ρ Idiosyncratic CP factors i

24 Concluding Remarks CVA and Wrong Way Risk CVA must be priced for derivatives portfolios the crisis showed its practical role and impact Conceptually simple, but complex problem in practice Consequences now reflected in accounting and capital rules We are just starting to understand its modelling and its financial, regulatory and management requirementsand impacts Wrong-way risk is important Portfolio effects may reduce its systematic impacts (general WWR) Specific WWR needs to be analyzed with stress testing and individual counterparty analysis Basel III regulation is not yet fully aligned with some of the best practices, but will likely move there over time

25 CVA and Model Risk CVA is pricing do we want to achieve pricing-level accuracy Marginal contributions, real time, securitization of CVA But how accurate can we. Or will we do it in the near future? This is probably the Most complex instrument we have ever priced! Complex risks Modelling CCR and CVA requires integrated market-credit models: 1s or 1s of market factors driving exposures over very long horizons Wrong-way risk Credit risk of portfolios of very complex and varied derivatives Mitigation: netting, collateral, margin calls. We cant price very well yet synthetic CDOs!
