XVA Calculations

Under XVA, in addition to portfolio valuation functionalities, you can:

Running XVA Calculations

Once you have added relevant funding nodes, defined a curve configuration, a market data environment, a portfolio, the applicable valuation settings and the XVA model parametrisation, the XVA calculation interface can be accessed i) at the portfolio level under Portfolios/Portfolio List by clicking on XVA Calculations or ii) under XVA/Run Valuation.

Prior to valuing a portfolio and performing XVA calculations, you will need to:

  1. set the valuation parameters (see Valuations)
  2. apply curve shifts, if any (see Valuations)
  3. set the XVA calculation parameters

A description of the settings specific to XVA calculations and corresponding permissible values are set out in the table below.

Field Name Description Permissible Values
Correlation Matrix The matrix of correlations between underlying IR rates and FX rates See correlation matrices
Calculation Type XVA calculations only or with simulated underlying exposure calculations xVA (Full Integration)
xVA (Full Integration) with Exposures (Simulations)
Calculation Perspective XVA calculations can be performed from the standard or the counterparty's perspective Counterparty | Self

XVA Calculation Results

Once a portfolio (and XVA) has been valued (after clicking on Run Calculation in the “XVA Calculation Results” window), you will automatically be redirected to the “XVA Calculation Results” window, which contains saved XVA calculation results, as well as the results of the latest calculations performed. Valuation results can also be accessed under XVA/Valuation Results.

At the XVA calculation results level (by double-clicking on the line item), the various valuation outputs are:

  1. trade PV, T0 cashflows and greeks on a trade basis (see Valuations)
  2. portfolio metrics (cashflows and bucketed greeks) (see Valuations)
  3. option expiry heatmaps (swaptions and FX options) (see Valuations)
  4. graphs of calibrated curves used in the valuation process (see Valuations)
  5. message log of events that were recorded during the valuation process (see Valuations)

In addition, the XVA calculations outputs are:

  1. XVA calculations and corresponding exposure profiles (if applicable) on a counerparty basis
  2. underlying exposure simulation results

After saving, XVA valuation results will also be accessible on a trade level in the trade valuation history screen (see Trade Valuation History).

1. XVA Calculation Results on a Counterparty Basis

In the “Exposure Profiles And XVAS PV” window, you can view, filter and export XVA calculation results on a counterparty basis.

If the XVA calculations have been performed to include exposure simulations, EPE, ENE, PFE and EE per counterparty will be plotted on the right handside.

A description of the XVA calculation result outputs is set out in the table below.

Field Name Description
Counterparty The counterparty credit curve reference
# Trades The number of trades with the Counterparty
CVA Credit value adjustment expressed in the Reporting Ccy
DVA Debit value adjustment expressed in the Reporting Ccy
FCA Funding cost adjustment expressed in the Reporting Ccy
FBA Funding benefit adjustment expressed in the Reporting Ccy
Bilateral CVA CVA + DVA
FVA Funding valuation adjustment expressed in the Reporting Ccy

2. Exposure Simulation Results

In the “Exposures” window, when applicable, you can see and export exposure simulation results on a counterparty basis.

A description of the simulation result outputs is set out in the table below.

Field Name Description
Time (Y) The date as of which the exposure is calculated (expressed in year from the valuation date)
Date The date as of which the exposure is calculated
EPE (CVA/FCA) The expected positive exposure for the selected counterparty, used to calculate CVA and FCA
ENE (DVA/FBA) The expected negative exposure for the selected counterparty, used to calculate DVA and FBA
PFE The potential future exposure for the selected counterparty
EE (FVA) The expected exposure for the selected counterparty, used to calculate FVA
