Gross Net Average size The most significant stress test results are identified from a sample of 8- unique stress tests that are carried out daily. The tests stress the portfolio by exposing it to a movement in size of the given factor by one standard deviation from the average of the daily movements observed in our SunGard APT short term risk model. Source: SunGard APT. The liquidity profile of the portfolio is measured assuming that all positions will be traded out in an orderly fashion and at no more than a quarter of the average daily volume traded observed over the previous 6 days. The stock is assumed to be simultaneously traded across all Martin Currie accounts and products holding it and as a consequence single client redemption liquidity is typically higher than the values shown. Recent IPOs have insufficient historical data to be accurately assessed for liquidity and therefore where held are shown as an additional component on the chart.. The Value at Risk measure aims to quantify with 95% confidence the maximum loss that could be incurred assuming normal market conditions over a two week period. The model uses daily data looking back over the previous twelve months to describe normal market conditions and produce the predicted value. 4. The ' Cap' analysis does not include cash and certain derivatives. 5. Gross and Net exposures include equity and equity derivatives only. Source for all figures on this page: Martin Currie. Risk numbers calculated using SunGard APT. Liquidity calculated using data from FactSet. Cap data sourced from StateStreet.
