The Accelerator provides scaling simulations to display instant
recalculations of and incremental impact on VaR/ES and sensitivities
from reclassifying a given book in the book/desk hierarchy.
By simply dragging a book from one point in the hierarchy to another,
you can immediately see the potential impact on the VaR/ ESÂ or
sensitivities.
