Credit Valuation Adjustment - recap of LS-MC approach •CVA is defined as the following (ignoring recovery R for simplicity): T CVA E V (t ) ( t )dt 0 •If V can be computed in closed form or through a quick model we are done (but have to take the pain of deriving closed form expressions or implement quick models). •We can do LS-MC on V to get a proxy (with the tilde), and evaluate CVA as: T ~ CVA E V (t ) ( t )dt 0 •This puts a high demand on the proxy, which needs to be very close for all states of the underlying variables, even in the extremes.

Often this intuition is derived from careful study of the Black-Scholes model and the background theory. •This intuition is less developed for options on the sum or difference of several underlyings, say basket or spread options, nor for best-of types of options. •For analyzing Credit Valuation Adjustment and related xVAs, the ability to understand netting effects between different trades, or risk factors in a derivatives portfolio is crucial! •Most often this analysis is done on a before-and-after basis, hence the comparison is between the existing netting set and the netting set augmented with a new trade (alternatively reduced by a terminated trade). The resulting xVA impact is called the Incremental xVA. •When an xVA is decomposed into the contributions of different trades or risk factors we consider it a Marginal xVA. •Before analyzing how to compute these in the xVA framework, we consider some intuitive approaches for understanding the EPE and ENE impact. Source: www.danskebank.com/CI 11 Netting Intuition (cont.) Expected Positive Exposure (EPE) is an option on a portfolio •In practice a typical OTC derivatives netting set may consist of 1000s of trades with exposure across different asset classes and derivative types. •In a pricing situation it is close to impossible (within the time-frame given) to analyze the individual trades of the netting set, and their co-dependency structure in detail. •However, the derivative type and main risk factors of the single (or few) additional trade is known. Further analytics, such as exposure profiles (across time) for the netting set, the additional trade, and the augmented netting set allows heuristic reasoning for incremental xVA impacts. •Consider: V Net n (t ) X i (t ) EPE Net New (t ) EPE Net (t ) EPE New (t ) and i 1 V New (t ) X n 1 (t ) (t ) ENE (t ) E V (t ) EE (t ) E V (t ) EPE EPE Net (t ) E V Net Net Net Net Net Source: www.danskebank.com/CI EPE New Net (t ) E V New (t ) V Net (t ) Net (t ) ENE Net (t ) E E V New (t ) V Net (t ) V Net (t ) 12 Netting Intuition (cont.)

In particular their Vega/Gamma sensitivity becomes important in understanding changes in EPE (and ENE) driving Incremental xVA.
