Exception 97.5 (Actual) Lookback

The measure helps to inspect exceptions for PLAT and Backtesting.
You can change the lookback horizon (for instance 1M) to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Exception 97.5 (Hypothetical) Lookback

The measure helps to inspect exceptions for PLAT and Backtesting.
You can change the lookback horizon (for instance 1M) to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Exception 99 (Actual) Lookback

The measure helps to inspect exceptions for PLAT and Backtesting.
You can change the lookback horizon (for instance 1M) to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Exception 99 (Hypothetical) Lookback

The measure helps to inspect exceptions for PLAT and Backtesting.
You can change the lookback horizon (for instance 1M) to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Hypothetical PL

Hypothetical PL Lookback

The measure helps to inspect actual contributors to the eligibility statistics calculations and spot potential data quality issues, such as spikes or missing values.
You can change the lookback horizon (for instance 1M) to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Mean Ratio

The mean ratio is a P&L attribution test metric, computed as shown below. Mean Ratio = Mean Unexplained PL / Std Dev Hypothetical PL

Mean Unexplained PL

This page describes the Mean unexplained PL measure, which provides the mean of the unexplained P&L. The measure is computed based on the Unexplained PL measure.

Spearman Correlation Metric

This page describes the Spearman correlation metric measure, which provides the Spearman correlation statistics.

Std Dev Hypothetical PL

The measure is computed based on the Hypothetical PL measure.

Theoretical PL

Theoretical PL Lookback

The measure helps to inspect the actual contributors to the eligibility statistics calculations and spot potential data quality issues, such as spikes or missing values.
The lookback horizon (for instance 1M) can be changed to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Unexplained PL

Unexplained PL Lookback

The measure helps to inspect actual contributors to the eligibility statistics calculations and spot potential data quality issues, such as spikes or missing values.
The lookback horizon (for instance 1M) can be changed to a shorter or longer observation window using the NbDaysPLMeasures context value.

Variance Hypothetical PL

This page describes the Variance hypothetical PL measure, which provides the variance of the hypothetical P&L (BCBS 352: 183 (b)).

Variance Ratio

This measure gives the variance of the unexplained P&L divided by the variance of the hypothetical P&L.

Variance Unexplained PL

This measure gives the variance of the unexplained P&L.

VaR

ES 97.5

This measure provides the trade-level 1-day expected shortfall at the 97.5% confidence level.

ES 99

This measure provides the expected shortfall at the 99% confidence level.
