4 Risk Management 5
5 What is Risk Management Risk is a tool the goal is to optimize and understand risk o Too much risk is locally and systemically dangerous o Too little risk means the firm may be leaving profit on the table Portfolio exposure o Modern portfolios contain many different types of assets o Simple instruments, Complex instruments and derivatives Many types of risk measures o Defined scenario-based stress testing o Value at Risk (VaR) o Sensitivities Key is valuation under different scenarios VaR is used in banking regulations, margin calculations and risk management 6
6 Value at Risk (VaR) VaR is a statistical measure of risk expressed as amount of loss given probability %. E.g. 97.5% chance that the firm will not lose more than 1mill USD over the next 5 days Computing VaR is a challenging data sourcing and compute intensive process VaR calculation: o Generate statistical scenarios of market behavior o Revalue the portfolio for each scenario, compare returns to today s value o Sort results and select the desired percentage return: VALUE AT RISK Different VaR techniques: o Parametric analytic approximation o Historical captures real (historical) market dynamics o Monte Carlo many scenarios, depends on statistical distributions 7
7 VaR Graphically Source: An Introduction To Value at Risk (VAR), Investopedia, May
8 Complexities For modern financial firms, VaR is complex. Calculation requirements: o Different types of assets require different valuation models Risk-based approach Full revaluation o With large numbers of scenarios, many thousands of calculations are required o Monte Carlo simulations require significant calibration, depending on large historical data Many different reporting dimensions o VaR is not additive across dimensions. Product/asset class, Currency o Portfolio including what-if and intraday activity Intraday market changes requiring new simulations Incremental VaR how does a single (new) trade contribute to the total 9

19 Observations As expected, processing time of Map jobs increased marginally when input data volume was increased Process was IO-bound on Simulation s Reduce job as intermediate data emitted was huge Data replication factor needs to be chosen carefully MapReduce jobs should be designed such that Map/Reduce output is not huge 22
