Summary data for the calculation of VaR and similar measures (Marginal VaR, Expected Shortfall) form the backbone of the Market Risk Accelerator. Input data consists of book level vectors of PnL simulations. The reference data model proposes a breakdown by risk factor - which may or may not be used - and a single set of PnLs per trade.
This Summary VaR fields file type is identified using the pattern: **SummaryVaR*.csv (as specified by mr.var.file-patterns.summary).
This file is loaded using the BaseStore topic. See the Topic Aliases table for an understanding of the topic aliases associated with each topic.

RiskFactor
Y
N
String
Underlying risk factor (may be more than one) of the risk class. It is expected that the risk factor name encompasses the definition of the risk factor per the FRTB specification (paragraphs 59-66) or remains as close as possible to this regulation. This field is mandatory.

Y
Y
String
Defines if a trade is included in the VaR by repricing (R) from the VaR-ES cube or by sensitivity (S) from the Taylor VaR formula.
