Valuation Simulation

Top ↑

Once you have a pricing environment ready, you can simulate portfolio valuations over a period of time, to pre-empt any potential future valuation issues.

Other pricing functionalities are listed here.

Running Valuation Simulation

Under Valuations/Valuation Simulation, you will need to set the valuation parameters and apply curve shifts (if any), as you would do in a standard PV calculation process.

The field changes in settings are set out in the table below.

Field Name Description Permissible Values
Name The name of the simulation Free text
Start Date (*) The start date of the simulation period (default = Curve Date) YYYY-MM-DD (ISO 8601)
End Date The end date of the simulation period YYYY-MM-DD (ISO 8601)

(*) Start Date replaces Valuation Date.

The simulation period will be determined by Start Date and End Date. The market data used for the valuation simulation will be that of Curve Date. Fixings will be duplicated as of each day over the simulation period.

In the “Valuation SIMULATION” window, click on Run Simulation to start the simulation process.

Valuation Simulation Results

Once the simulation process has been completed, in the “SIMULATION Results” window, any error (type and corresponding description) will be set out for each calendar day in the simulation period.
