Summary
- Summary Cubes : Cube import spring profile is replaced by a set of summary cubes that can be started along with the standard cubes.
- Level path on tenor value adjustment input : Added a level path to the vectorised sensitivity tenor value adjustment input.
- JUnit 5: All tests use JUnit5 and tests with the same Spring setup are grouped in test suites for faster spin-up.
- Harrell-Davis VaR/VaR-ES cube : Harrell-Davis VaR is available on VaR-ES cube with incremental and L estimators.
- DEE Template Orders : Added data extraction template orders to DEETemplateOrders directory
- Upgrade to Sign-off API 1.5.0 : Upgraded the Sign-off API to version 1.5.0.
- New dependency - adjustments-services module : The MRA has a dependency on the new module adjustments-services which contains the DTOs and services for handling supported types of what-if operations and a DTO for sending the what-if operation request.
Known issues
- Updated 2022-09-12: PIVOT-5759 - Attempting to create partitions for reference stores causes a deadlock. You can find a walkthrough of the workaround here.
- Update 2022-06-07: We’ve identified a bug in the Frequent Value Compression ActivePivot feature (new since AP 5.10). MRA 3.0.0 depends on ActivePivot
5.10.6 and is therefore impacted. We strongly recommend disabling Frequent Value Compression by setting the following property when launching
ActivePivot:
-Dactiveviam.chunk.compression.enabledFrequentValue=0.The next maintenance release of MRA will include an upgrade to ActivePivot, which resolves this issue.

Test suites
Two tests suites have been created : ScalarProfileTestSuite and StandardProfileTestSuiteto avoid the spin-up delay at the start of each test.
To prevent test run duplication, the tests that are part of a test suite are renamed as *SubTest. They are excluded from the surefire perimeter and instead included in *TestSuite.java.
A suite selects its own subtest by using the JUnit5 tagging feature (@Tag) and the *SubTest class name pattern.
The subtests can still be executed in a standalone mode.
| Scalar profile | Standard profile | |
|---|---|---|
| Suite | ScalarProfileTestSuite | StandardProfileTestSuite |
| Expected Spring profile | SP_PROFILE__SCALAR_SENSI | SP_PROFILE__STANDARD |
| Filtering Tag | Scalar | Standard |
DEETemplateOrders
Data extraction can now be performed with templates that describe the query, the extracted fields and the output file format. These templates are also used as the backbone for the sign-off data export phase which uses the templates after programmatically enriching them.
The DEETemplateOrder folder contains:
- A set of templates specifically designed for the export of data intended to be re-imported into the summary cubes.
- Sample templates you can use to build your own for direct extraction or sign-off.

Summary
note
MRA 2.0.0 uses ActivePivot 5.9, which requires Java 11. We therefore no longer support Java 8. Projects running on Java 8 must upgrade to Java 11.
- Usage of the common library : The common features used by all accelerators are located in the ‘com.activeviam.apps/shared*.jar’ library. Several classes have been moved to this library. As a consequence a lot of imports have changed from ‘com.activeviam.risk’ to ‘com.activeviam.accelerator.common’.
- Upgrade to AP5.9 : The accelerator now uses Active Pivot 5.9.x, which also means that only Java 11 is supported.
- Adjustments 2.0 : Integration of the interfaces allowing the interaction with the sign-off module.
- Datastore Helper 2.0 : The Datastore Helper tool for defining and customizing the datastore schema has been upgraded to version 2.0.
- JUnit 5 : Most of the tests now use JUnit 5.
- Data Connectors : The DEE feature is now integrated into an import/export toolbox library called “Data Connectors” prefixed with ‘com.activeviam.io’.
- Corporate Actions : The dividends, coupons, stock splits or merge are now taken in account for PnL calculations.
- Correlation : The correlation metric is handled. Its market data name is ‘RiskFactor 1/RiskFactor 2’.
- Cross-Gamma : The cross-gamma metric is handled; it is the gamma between two risk factors, without bucketing.
- Spring configuration : The Spring configuration templates for cube and datastore definition are in common with FRTB.

| None | Spring Boot Starting from version 1.4.0, the risk-starter and risk-activemonitor projects have been migrated to Spring Boot. As an immediate consequence, building these projects will produce executable JAR files instead of WAR files, which are deployed as standalone applications. For more details regarding the project migration to Spring Boot, see the Migration Notes. |
| MRA-718 | Market data are now interpolated in the market data post-processor and not in the PnL explain post-processor |

| MRA-690 | Non-regression tests have been added for scalar sensitivities |
| MRA-689 | Implement interpolation of market data for PnL explain for vectorised sensitivities. |
| MRA-682 | Added the Epoch dimension to the combined cube. This supports existing branches on data nodes, but does not support individual epochs. |
| MRA-681 | Pivot wizard is added into explore view |
| MRA-675 | In the sample data set, some static data were missing for four trades. Those data have been added. |
| MRA-660 | Fields for risk factor enrichment coming for the Risk Factors Catalog input CSV file have been added to the schema. |
| MRA-695 | In the ‘02 - What-If Scaling’ bookmark real-time has been enabled and a filter on one trade id has been added. |
Changed
| Issue Key | Details |
|---|---|
| MRA-687 | Translation has been updated |
| MRA-676 | Offset for VaR whatif substitution is now taken into the account and gives correct numbers for different scenarios |
| MRA-673 | When sensitivity is not aligned with the market pillars, a linear interpolation is now applied on market data in order to fit the tenor/maturity/moneyness of the sensitivity. This feature is available on Scalar configuration. |
| MRA-662 | Use an EmptyCalculator for the sensitivities domain field to allow easier customisation of sensitivities base store. |
| MRA-621 | If a percentile of ‘0’ is set for the VaR or ES computations, the best scenario is now returned. Previously the 0 percentile was considered as a non-valid input and the computations were done with the default confidence level instead. |
| MRA-614 | By default, the length of the PnL vector is used for the length of the regression in the Component VaR computation, unless a value is explicitly defined for the property cvar.regression.length |
| MRA-590 | When sensitivity is not aligned with the market pillars, a linear interpolation is now applied on market data in order to fit the tenor/maturity/moneyness of the sensitivity. This feature is available on Scalar configuration. |
| MRA-520 | The UI now contains an option to scale PnL numbers by scenario. |

| MRA-692 | Obsolete documentation files have been removed. |
Fixed
| Issue Key | Details |
|---|---|
| MRA-685 | The ‘rouding’ property was misspelled and has been replaced by the ‘rounding’ property |
| MRA-684 | An ‘ES’ measure folder was incorrectly present alongside the ‘Expected Shortfall’ folder. |
| MRA-672 | The ordering of security filters has been changed to ensure JWT filtering is done after CORS. This fixes the issues with expired tokens preventing ActiveUI logins. |
| MRA-664 | The ‘NotionalCcy’ level is used for Notional FX conversion. Previously the ‘Ccy’ level was used, which was incorrect. |
| MRA-550 | The previous day market data post-processor uses the current day sensitivities as underlying measures so that the if no sensitivities is present for the current day no market data is returned for the previous day. It has been resolved. |

|---|---|
| MRA-485 | Support for scalar sensitivities has been implemented. To run the application in scalar data-load mode, use one of the following Spring Profiles, as required: * scalar-sensi * scalar-sensi-store-import * scalar-sensi-aggregated-import The file format for the default sample data load is unchanged between vectorised and scalar sensitivities, however signoff import data formats will be different. |
| MRA-575 | DHS (Displaced Historical Simulation) computation is implemented for PnL explain. It can be defined in the greek-based-pl-formula-rules.properties file. |
| MRA-545 | Volga and Vanna sensitivities measures have been implemented. |
Changed
| Issue Key | Details |
|---|---|
| MRA-551](https://support.activeviam.com/jira/browse/MRA-551) | Context actions ordered and standardised across UI components |
| MRA-547 | Migrate ActiveUI code to ESLint config 1.3.1 |
| MRA-538 | Measure ‘Notional Native’ shows the aggregated notional value in native currency (provided the currency level is present in the MDX query) and the ‘Notional’ measure shows the aggregated notional converted into reference currency. |
| MRA-470 | Weighted VaR is using exponential weighting for PnL values so that the most recent PnL figures have more weight than older PnL values. The parameter used to compute the weight is defined in the IWeightedVaRLambda context value. |
| MRA-537 | Weighted ES is using exponential weighting for PnL values so that the most recent PnL figures have more weight than older PnL values. The parameter used to compute the weight is defined in the IWeightedVaRLambda context value. |
| MRA-534 | Migrate to Spring Boot to deploy using executable JAR file instead of a WAR file. |
| MRA-494 | Reporting server upgraded from 0.1.0 to 0.1.8 |
| MRA-461 | A server started with a non-default port will generate non-default H2 console ports, using the application port as a seed. |
| MRA-456 | Maturity conversion for dynamic bucketing is now done via the IMaturityConverter interface. The default implementation queries the tenor stores for static and dynamic tenors and maturities. There is also a simple implementation that allows a custom tenor converter and day count convention to be used. |
| MRA-298 | Sensitivities are now present in one store: TradeSensitivities. The abstract classes AGreekSensiCubeMeasureConfig, AMatrixTypeSensiCubeMeasureConfig and A3DTypeSensiCubeMeasureConfig allow the configuration of 1-dimensional, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional sensitivities measures. |

| Issue Key | Details |
|---|---|
| MRA-511 | Implement methodology to find the rank in the PNL vector from the quantile : EQUAL_WEIGHT means equally spaced PNLs in ]0%-100%[ , CENTERED means centered PNL on quantile with 1/size steps. This methodology is defined via the property: rounding.quantile2Rank=EQUAL_WEIGHT |
| MRA-501 | Create measures for mean and standard deviation of PnL explain: measures ‘Average’ and ‘Standard deviation’ in folder; ‘Value At Risk/VaR’ |
| MRA-484 | Create test data set to assess impact of sparse vectors (for ActiveViam internal testing) |
| MRA-483 | Implement sparse vectors for sensitivities. Sparse vectors allow ta reduction of the off-heap memory usage in the datastore for vectors that contain a high proportion of zeros. |
| MRA-478 | Implement 3 rounding methods used to find the closest quantile for VaR and ES computation, you can use : FLOOR, CEIL, ROUND. The rounding methods are defined in properties: ‘rouding.var’, ‘rouding.es’ and ‘rouding.vae’ |
| MRA-459 | Implement VaE (Value at Earnings). The VaE measure logic is identical to VaR but it is used to estimate the probability of profits instead of losses. |

| MRA-482 | Refactor reload functionality for mandates to improve performance |
| MRA-472 | Implement better mandate status filtering UX in sign-off views in ActiveUI |
| MRA-464 | Externalise levels configuration in post-processors in properties file risk-config.properties. The levels used in post-processors are now defined in the properties instead of the risk measures to make the renaming of dimensions/hierarchies/levels easier. Examples from proprieties file risk-config.properties : tenors.analysis.level=Tenor@Tenors@Risk maturities.analysis.level=Maturity@Maturities@Risk |
| MRA-448 | Increase number of measures displayed in sign-off widgets in ActiveUI |
