Supported sign-off adjustments

This page details the adjustment types available in the Market Risk Accelerator, together with details of the execution workflow.

Adjustment types

Multiple adjustment types are available out of the box in the Market Risk Accelerator.

Cube Adjustment type Description Input value type Base value type
Sensitivity Cube Add-on Time-bucket indexed (tenors, maturities, and moneyness, where applicable) add-on value. Results in a single new row per adjustment. Scalar (with extra input required for vectorized base values) Scalar or vectorized, depending on the enabled Spring profile
Scaling Time-bucket indexed (tenors, maturities, and moneyness, where applicable) scaling of the base value. Results in two rows, for the inversion of the base value and the scaled new value. Scalar (with extra input required for vectorized base values) Scalar or vectorized, depending on the enabled Spring profile
Override Time-bucket indexed (tenors, maturities, and moneyness, where applicable) override of the base value. Results in two rows, for the inversion of the base value and the new value. Scalar (with extra input required for vectorized base values) Scalar or vectorized, depending on the enabled Spring profile
Roll-over Performed for a desk, a book, or a trade. Results in inversions of all the rows matching the current as-of date, and new rows for all the matches on the previous as-of date. Date Scalar or vectorized
Cube Performed for a desk, a book or a trade. Date, Currency, Value Scalar or vectorized
PLCube Add-on value. Results in a single new row per adjustment. Add-on Scalar Scalar
Scaling Scaling of the base value. Results in two rows, for the inversion of the base value and the scaled new value. Scalar Scalar

Execution details

Functional workflow

Executing an adjustment should conform to the following steps:

Step Details
Retrieve supported adjustments from the appropriate REST endpoint The adjustment requests need to conform to the specification returned by the supported adjustments service, but once the requests are created, this step isn’t necessary.
Initiate the sign-off task The status of the Sign-off process for the filters defined in the association Sign-off task is set to ‘INITIATED’.
Request adjustment. Adjustment requests will be executed asynchronously on the Sign-off snapshot. There is no limit to the number of adjustments that can be requested for a snapshot.
Approve the sign-off task The status of the Sign-off process for the filters defined in the association Sign-off task is set to ‘APPROVED’.
Retrieve the status of an adjustment execution As adjustments are executed asynchronously, a service is provided for retrieving the status of a given adjustment execution. Any errors in the execution of an adjustment will result in a FAILED status being returned by the status service.
