Summary

Market Data API

• Market Data API: The new Market Data API has been significantly updated with new features. It has also been moved to dedicated modules, the market-data-api library module and the market-data-api-spring-boot-starter module for easy auto-configuration. The scalar market data measure chains been migrated to this API, and it should be used for any custom measures. The vectorized chains will not use this API until they are removed.
• CorporateAction store removed for scalar sensitivities, and deprecated for vectorized sensitivities: It is still used to handle dividends for vectorized sensitivities, but is not used anymore for scalar sensitivities.
• Stock splits handled in a new store: The SplitRatioMarketData store is used for the handling of stock split rations both for vectorized and scalar sensitivities.
• New input files for Dividends and stock Split Ratios: Those files replace the previous CorporateAction.csv file that is now deprecated.
• New Market Data input files: spot, curve, surface, cube, and correlation market data files have been created to replace the previous market data input file MarketData.csv that is now deprecated and is used only for vectorized sensitivities.
• Real time: Market Data API and FX post-processors handle low-frequency real time and the real-time handler could be changed.
• FXRates store removed: Please use the new Market Data API store FxRateMarketData instead.
• The FX rate service uses the Market Data API: The FXRateWrapper, implementation of IFxRates, uses the Market Data API to get the FX rates, see Exchange Rate and Market Data API.
• Market Data Cube removed: Market data measures in the Sensitivities Cube need to be used to display market data instead of the Market Data Cube.
• Modules mr-market-data-lib and mr-market-data-config removed: Those modules were used for the configuration of the Market Data Cube.
• Migration of market data measure chains to new Market Data API: For scalar sensitivities, the market data measures are now defined using the new market data API.
• Migration of FX conversion to the new market data API.: The FX post-processor is now implemented with new market data API.
• Removed Debug measures: The debug market data measures and subsequent classes have been removed from the product.
• New interpolation option added to the Market Data API: The Market Data API now supports applying a volatility-to-variance transformation for surface input data and a variance-to-volatility transformation to the interpolation result, using the InterpolationMode.VOL_TO_VARIANCE interpolation mode.

Upgrades

• Atoti Server: Upgraded to Atoti Server 6.0.14-sb3.
• Spring Boot 3: Upgraded to Spring Boot 3.2.0, which uses Spring Framework 6.
• Hibernate: The application has been upgraded to Hibernate 6.3.1.Final.
• H2: The application has been upgraded to H2 2.2.224.
• Admin UI : The Admin UI has been upgraded to version 5.1.8.

Deprecation of vectorized sensitivities

• Vectorized sensitivities have been deprecated: Scalar sensitivities should be used instead of vectorized sensitivities.
• Default data model for sensitivities changed from vector model to scalar model.
• Scalar sensitivities default: The default data model for sensitivities changed from vector model to scalar model.
• Vector sensitivities deprecated: The vector sensitivities data model is deprecated and planned for removal.

DirectQuery

• Databricks: Added support for DirectQuery with Databricks.

General configuration

• Security configuration : Some classes related to security configuration have been moved from the mr-common-config project to the mr-application project.
• Spring Profiles: Profile-based configuration has been replaced with properties (backwards compatible).
• Fluent post-processors : Post-processor metrics are now set up in a Fluent style. The levels and hierarchies use strong types. For more details, see Fluent post-processor setup.
• Specific alias classes for lambda generics: Lambda generics have been replaced with specific alias classes (e.g. MeasurePublisher for Consumer intended for publishing measures).
• Topic Aliases: The topic aliases used by the Data Load Controller (DLC) are now defined for each topic rather than in a single place during DLC initialization.
• Combined cube metrics: The metrics of the combined cube are now defined in the class MRCombinedCubeMeasuresConfig, their definition in pure Copper is also provided but should ne be used.

Catalog and Datastore fields changes

• Catalog name The catalog has been changed from MarketRiskAccelerator to MR.
• New moneyness default value: The default value of the moneyness field in the sensitivities and market data has been changed from ATM to N/A.
• Type change for date fields: The MaturityDate & TradeDate fields of the TradeAttributes store, and the MaturityDates and TenorDates fields of the TradeSensitivities store are now typed as Date instead of String. Code that requires these to be Strings will need updating.

VaR-ES Cube Adjustments

• VaR-ES Cube Adjustments: Added scenario-indexed adjustments for the PnL vectors.

Other

• New abstract tuple publisher: Introduced new abstract tuple publisher (ATableFormatTuplePublisher) for publishers where the file format does not match the table data model.
• Maturity Converter: Returns NaN or null instead of throwing an error.

Summary

• Implementation of additional Taylor measures : Many of the VaR and similar measures that are available in the VaR-ES cube are now available in the Sensitivities Cube. These measures are derived from PnL vectors created with a Taylor expansion of sensitivities and market data.
  • For each combination of sensitivity - Cash, Correlation, CrossGamma, Delta, Gamma, Vanna, Vega, and Aggregate - and measure type - Expected Shortfall (ES), Expected Tail Gain (ETG), Value at Earnings (VaE), Value at Risk (VaR), Weighted Value at Earnings (WVaE), Weighted Value at Risk (WVaR) - the following measures are available:
    • Basic measure
    • Measure from the previous day
    • Day-to-day difference of the measure
    • Day-to-day difference of the measure expressed as a percentage
    • LEstimated version of the measure
  • For each of these measures, there is a version for which the confidence is controlled with a context value. There are also versions that use a fixed confidence. These fixed confidences are set by the confidence.levels application property.
  • The Sensitivies Cube now also has a Tail VaR measure (VaR with 100% confidence) and a Tail VaE measure (VaE with 100% confidence).
• Removal of IGreekDescription interface: Removed IGreekDescription interface and replaced it with source- and hierarchy-specific configuration.

• Market Data Cube: The Market Data Cube has been added to display the market data, market shift values, and FX rate. Unlike the Sensitivities Cube that needs to have a risk factor associated to a sensitivity, the facts are directly linked to the risk factors.
• Removed Spring profiles : Replaced the custom Spring profiles used to control application modes with properties in the application.yaml file.
• Moved cube toggling properties : Moved the cube toggling properties from the mr.properties file to the application.yaml file and renamed them.
• Removed DayToDayDifference, PnLStart and PnLEnd context values : Replaced with analysis hierarchies.
• Added Spring extension points for source and measure configurations: Added the option of configuring the CSV sources and also the measure chains through Spring Beans.
• Improved package structure for source and measure configurations: Cleaned up the packages and classes containing the source and measure configurations.
• Added Spring Conditions classes for @Configuration and @Bean : Added extensions of Spring Conditions classes for enabling and disabling @Configuration and @Bean instantiation based on application.yaml properties.
• Handle multiple hierarchies and level depths higher than 1 for sign-off scopes : Until version 3.1.0, the scope of a Sign-off task could only be defined for the first level of one hierarchy. Now the scope definition can contain multiple hierarchies, and within each hierarchy, a level at a depth that can be higher than 1.

  note

  The hierarchies and levels that can be used in the scopes of the Sign-off task must be part of the ones defined in configuration properties.

• Possibility to define Sign-off DEE export templates by cube-measure pairs: On top of being defined by cube names, DEE templates used for Sign-off export can now be defined by cube name and measures.
• Upgraded to ActivePivot 5.10.10 and ActiveUI 5.0.14
• File Upload: Create or append a WhatIf scenario by uploading CSV files into the cube. For more information, see File Upload.
• Limit monitoring : Support has been added for Limits Module integration.

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-579 - Attempting to create partitions for reference stores causes a deadlock.
• 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.

Dependency versions

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.

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.

For details, see Using DEE Template Orders

Summary

• Sign-off/Analysis Hierarchy : The sign-off analysis hierarchy has been redesigned for clarity, see Sign-Off Analysis Hierarchy
• Sign-off/Adjustment : The adjustments are integrated within the sign-off workflow.
• Sign-off/Rollback : The sign-off rollback reverts to the live state of the cube without adjustments.
• Sign-off/Cube-level adjustment : It’s now possible to modify a single cell value in a cube.

2.0.0

2021-05-17

Summary

• 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.
