RiskFactorDescription
The RiskFactorDescription store contains the description of risk-factor, independent of the underlying.
It is indexed by Risk Factor, RiskClass, Risk Measure, Underlying, and AsOfDate and referenced from the SaSensitivities store by these four fields.
The fields used in this store, and the purpose, depends on the risk-class and risk-measure. See the Implementation and Interpretation Guide for details on each risk-class.
