IMA Performance Regression
The addition of the Aggregate Provider configuration for the IMA cube in InternalModelApproachCube.xml can have a significant impact on performance, both in load times and query performance. If you have not customized your Aggregate Provider configuration and are using the default configuration, we recommend you revert to the 2.3.0 configuration. i.e. remove the <aggregateProvider>…</aggregateProvider> clause from InternalModelApproachCube.xml.
Summary
- ISDA Unit Tests and CRIF: Added ISDA unit tests and support for FRTB-SA CRIF file format.
- CRR2 Support: Added Long/Short Sensitivity measures for EBA reporting template and support for PLAT Yellow and Orange zones.
- SBM performance improvements: By converting the correlation matrix into a block diagonal form (with a block per Underlying) and using multi-threaded matrix multiplication.

FRTB-1800 | Added support for multiple GIRR inflation curves per bucket (with 99.9% correlation). |
FRTB-1217 | Added IMADRCSummary cube for historical IMA DRC data. IMA DRC is not calculated as the greater of the most recent DRC risk charge and the average of the DRC Risk charge over the previous 12 weeks as per MAR33.22. |

FRTB-1760 | Special bucket configuration is moved into parameter sets (index and other buckets, CSR non-Sec covered bonds bucket). See corresponding parameters in the FRTBParameters.csv file. |
FRTB-1569 | Improved the data normalization by splitting the MarketDataDescription store into two: RiskFactorDescription and UnderlyingDescription. The risk-factor description includes the underlying and a few other fields that represent the other (non-underlying) dimensions of the risk-factor (e.g. type: spot vs repo, bond vs CDS, or commodity location). The underlying description is now shared between Delta, Vega, and Curvature, and describes the underlying (e.g. curve type, market cap, sector, rating). As part of this split, some cube levels have been renamed. Additionally the "Market Type" level has been split into "Risk Factor Type" (for equity and CSR) and "CIRR Curve Type" (for GIRR). |
FRTB-1609 | The risk-factor cube level is now no longer directly used by the post-processors in calculations. Instead the underlying level and other relevant levels (e.g. type) are now consistently used as the post-processor leaf levels. |
FRTB-1643 | Improved data normalization during the ETL, to avoid duplicate key warnings when underlying data is repeated in multiple files. |
FRTB-1722 | Re-added automated integration tests based on queries extracted from bookmarks. |
FRTB-1652 | In sample data, set RiskFactorCCy fields to empty for FX sensitivities (these fields were ignored). |

FRTB-1567 | Added post-processor error handling API. The error handling in post-processors can now be overridden by replacing the errorHandler Spring bean (in FRTBPostProcessorConfig) with an alternative implementation of PostProcessorErrorHandler. |
FRTB-1650 | A new analysis hierarchy has been added (DRC Scenario@DRC Scenarios@Risk) to the IMADRCCube. It's populated by the ScenarioId field of the DRCScenarios store. The new hierarchy is used by the DRC PnL Expand measure, it's expanding the PnL values along the scenarios. |
FRTB-1636 | A new level has been added to the cube, TradeDate@TradeDates@Dates. It gets its value from the "Trade Date" column of the Trade_Attributes.csv file. This field shall contain trade date to be used for analytical purposes. No calculations or post-processors currently depend on it. |

FRTB-1543 | [MAR21.14] | Refactored and added improvements to the FX calculations to support the base currency approach. Brief description of the new model: Two types of FX Delta inputs are accepted: 1. Complex trades - FxComplexDelta=Y: * input line is filtered by FxCounterCcy=reporting/base currency condition (similar to FX Curvature inputs) * FxOtherCcy field is ignored * ReferenceToReportingCcy flag must be provided (defaults to “N” if left empty) for the FX Curvature Divisor to be applied correctly.(Can be omitted if the divisor is not used.) 2. Simple trades - FxComplexDelta=N (or FxComplexDelta column left empty) a. base currency approach is not used: * if the FxCounterCcy is not the reporting currency, an input of CCY1|CCY2 is split to original risk (CCY1|reportingCcy) and funding risk(CCY2|reportingCcy) * Fx divisor eligibility is determined at query time by checking if the trade is referencing the reporting currency. FxOtherCcy column can be used to specify the other half of the currency pair referenced originally by the trade in case it’s not the underlying+FxCounterCcy. b. base currency approach is used: * if FxCounterCcy is not the base currency, an input of CCY1|CCY2 is split to original risk (CCY1|baseCcy), funding risk (CCY2|baseCcy) and translation risk (reportingCcy|baseCcy) * Fx divisor eligibility is determined at query time by checking if the trade is referencing the base currency. FxOtherCcy column can be used to specify the other half of the currency pair referenced originally by the trade in case it’s not the underlying+FxCounterCcy. |
FRTB-1061 | Supporting providing GIRR Delta sensitivities for inflation/basis curves without sensitivity dates. | |
FRTB-1439 | [MAR33.43] to [MAR33.45] | Updated Aggregated Capital Charge measure as defined in [MAR33.43] to [MAR33.45] |
FRTB-1411 | All liquidity horizons from table 1 in [MAR33.4] are used when filling gaps during ETL. Previously gaps will filled only for those liquidity horizons specific to the risk class (see table 2 in [MAR33.12]). For example, previously when filling gaps, no P&L vectors with LH=10 were added for CSR, now they are. | |
FRTB-1438 | [MAR33.16] and [MAR33.17] | The SES calculations have been updated for the new formulas in BCBS 457. The non -modellable idiosyncratic risk factors now have a risk class of CSR or Equity. |
FRTB-1521 | Updated generated FX Curvature Risk Factor to be underlying counterCcy to allow multiple lines of inputs for the same trade per reporting currency. | |
FRTB-1459 | [MAR21.53] footnote [17] | Optionally use a different risk weight for CSR non-Sec covered bonds with high rating. |
