Monotonicity II. Homogeneity III. Translation Invariance IV. Sub-additivity A. II and III B. II and IV C. I and III D. All of the above Answer: B Explanation: All of the properties described are the properties of a ‘coherent’ risk measure. Monotonicity means that if a portfolio’s future value is expected to be greater than that of another portfolio, its risk should be lower than that of the other portfolio. For example, if the expected return of an asset (or portfolio) is greater than that of another, the first asset must have a lower risk than the other. Another example: between two options if the first has a strike price lower than the second, then the first option will always have a lower risk if all other parameters are the same. VaR satisfies this property. Homogeneity is easiest explained by an example: if you double the size of a portfolio, the risk doubles. The linear scaling property of a risk measure is called homogeneity. VaR satisfies this property. Translation invariance means adding riskless assets to a portfolio reduces total risk. So if cash (which has zero standard deviation and zero correlation with other assets) is added to a portfolio, the risk goes down. A risk measure should satisfy this property, and VaR does. Sub-additivity means that the total risk for a portfolio should be less than the sum of its parts. This is a property that VaR satisfies most of the time, but not always. As an example, VaR may not be sub-additive for portfolios that have assets with discontinuous payoffs close to the VaR cutoff quantile. Question: 96 Which of the following credit risk models focuses on default alone and ignores credit migration when assessing credit risk? A. CreditPortfolio View B. The contingent claims approach C. The CreditMetrics approach D. The actuarial approach Answer: D Explanation: The correct answer is Choice ‘d’. The following is a brief description of the major approaches available to model credit risk, and the analysis that underlies them: Question: 97 For a US based investor, what is the 10-day value-at risk at the 95% confidence level of a long spot position of EUR 15m, where the volatility of the underlying exchange rate is 16% annually. The current spot rate for EUR is 1.5. (Assume 250 trading days in a year). A. 526400 B. 2632000 C. 1184400 D. 5922000 Answer: C Explanation: The VaR for a spot FX position is merely a function of the standard deviation of the exchange rate. If V be the value of the position (in this case, EUR 15m x 1.5 = USD 22.5m), z the appropriate z value associated with the level of confidence desired, and be the standard deviation of the portfolio, the VaR is given by ZV. In this case, the 10-day standard deviation is given by SQRT(10/250)*16%. Therefore the VaR is =1.645*15*1.5*(16%*SQRT(10/250)) = USD 1.1844m. Choice ‘c’ is the correct answer. Question: 98 Which of the following statements are true: I. Top down approaches help focus management attention on the frequency and severity of loss events, while bottom up approaches do not. II. Top down approaches rely upon high level data while bottom up approaches need firm specific risk data to estimate risk. III. Scenario analysis can help capture both qualitative and quantitative dimensions of operational risk. A. III only B. II and III C. I only D. II only Answer: B Explanation: Top down approaches do not consider event frequency and severity, on the other hand they focus on high level available data such as total capital, income volatility, peer group information on risk capital etc. Bottom up approaches focus on severity and frequency distributions for events. Statement I is therefore not correct. Top down approaches do indeed rely upon high level aggregate data and tend to infer operational risk capital requirements from these. Bottom up approaches look at more detailed firm specific information. Statement II is correct. Scenario analysis requires estimating losses from risk scenarios, and allows incorporating the judgment and views of managers in addition to any data that might be available from internal or external loss databases. Statement III is correct. Therefore Choice ‘b’ is the correct answer. Question: 99 Which of the following need to be assumed to convert a transition probability matrix for a given time period to the transition probability matrix for another length of time: I. Time invariance II. Markov property III. Normal distribution IV. Zero skewness A. I, II and IV B. III and IV C. I and II D. II and III Answer: C Explanation: Time invariance refers to all time intervals being similar and identical, regardless of the effects of business cycles or other external events. The Markov property is the assumption that there is no ratings momentum, and that transition probabilities are dependent only upon where the rating currently is and where it is going to. Where it has come from, or what the past changes in ratings have been, have no effect on the transition probabilities. Rating agencies generally provide transition probability matrices for a given period of time, say a year. The risk analyst may need to convert these into matrices for say 6 months, 2 years or whatever time horizon he or she is interested in. Simplifying assumptions that allow him to do so using simple matrix multiplication include these two assumptions – time invariance and the Markov property. Thus Choice ‘c’ is the correct answer. The other choices (normal distribution and zero skewness) are non-sensical in this context. Question: 100 The CDS rate on a defaultable bond is approximated by which of the following expressions: A. Hazard rate / (1 – Recovery rate) B. Loss given default x Default hazard rate C. Credit spread x Loss given default D. Hazard rate x Recovery rate Answer: B Explanation: The CDS rate is approximated by the [Loss given default x Default hazard rate]. Thus Choice ‘b’ is the correct answer. Note that this is also equal to the credit spread on the reference bond over the risk free rate. Therefore credit spreads and CDS rates are generally the same. Also, ‘loss given default’ is nothing but (1 – Recovery rate). This can be substituted in the formula for the credit spread to get an alternative expression that directly refers to the recovery rate. Therefore all other choices are incorrect. Question: 101 Which of the following steps are required for computing the aggregate distribution for a UoM for operational risk once loss frequency and severity curves have been estimated: I. Simulate number of losses based on the frequency distribution II. Simulate the dollar value of the losses from the severity distribution III. Simulate random number from the copula used to model dependence between the UoMs IV. Compute dependent losses from aggregate distribution curves A. I and II B. III and IV C. None of the above D. All of the above Answer: A Explanation: A recap would be in order here: calculating operational risk capital is a multi-step process. First, we fit curves to estimate the parameters to our chosen distribution types for frequency (eg, Poisson), and severity (eg, lognormal). Note that these curves are fitted at the UoM level – which is the lowest level of granularity at which modeling is carried out. Since there are many UoMs, there are are many frequency and severity distributions. However what we are interested in is the loss distribution for the entire bank from which the 99.9th percentile loss can be calculated. From the multiple frequency and severity distributions we have calculated, this becomes a two step process: – Step 1: Calculate the aggregate loss distribution for each UoM. Each loss distribution is based upon and underlying frequency and severity distribution. – Step 2: Combine the multiple loss distributions after considering the dependence between the different UoMs. The ‘dependence’ recognizes that the various UoMs are not completely independent, ie the loss distributions are not additive, and that there is a sort of diversification benefit in the sense that not all types of losses can occur at once and the joint probabilities of the different losses make the sum less than the sum of the parts. Step 1 requires simulating a number, say n, of the number of losses that occur in a given year from a frequency distribution. Then n losses are picked from the severity distribution, and the total loss for the year is a summation of these losses. This becomes one data point. This process of simulating the number of losses and then identifying that number of losses is carried out a large number of times to get the aggregate loss distribution for a UoM. Step 2 requires taking the different loss distributions from Step 1 and combining them considering the dependence between the events. The correlations between the losses are described by a ‘copula’, and combined together mathematically to get a single loss distribution for the entire bank. This allows the 99.9th percentile loss to be calculated. Question: 102 Which of the following are valid techniques used when performing stress testing based on hypothetical test scenarios: I. Modifying the covariance matrix by changing asset correlations II. Specifying hypothetical shocks III. Sensitivity analysis based on changes in selected risk factors IV. Evaluating systemic liquidity risks A. I, II, III and IV B. II, III and IV C. I, II and III D. I and II Answer: D Explanation: Each of these represent valid techniques for performing stress testing and building stress scenarios. Therefore d is the correct answer. In practice, elements of each of these techniques is used depending upon the portfolio and the exact situation. Question: 103 For identical mean and variance, which of the following distribution assumptions will provide a higher estimate of VaR at a high level of confidence? A. A distribution with kurtosis = 8 B. A distribution with kurtosis = 0 C. A distribution with kurtosis = 2 D. A distribution with kurtosis = 3 Answer: A Explanation: A fat tailed distribution has more weight in the tails, and therefore at a high level of confidence the VaR estimate will be higher for a distribution with heavier tails. At relatively lower levels of confidence however, the situation is reversed as the heavier tailed distribution will have a VaR estimate lower than a thinner tailed distribution. A higher level of kurtosis implies a ‘peaked’ distribution with fatter tails. Among the given choices, a distribution with kurtosis equal to 8 will have the heaviest tails, and therefore a higher VaR estimate. Choice ‘a’ is therefore the correct answer. Also refer to the tutorial about VaR and fat tails. Question: 104 Which of the following measures can be used to reduce settlement risks: A. escrow arrangements using a central clearing house B. increasing the timing differences between the two legs of the transaction C. providing for physical delivery instead of netted cash settlements D. all of the above Answer: C Explanation: increasing the timing differences between the two legs of the transaction will increase settlement risk and not reduce it. Using escrow arrangements, such as central clearing houses to settle transactions (eg the DTCC in the United States) reduces settlement risk. Cash settlements based on netting arrangements reduce settlement risk, while physical delivery combined with gross cash payments increase it. Therefore Choice ‘a’ is the correct answer. Question: 105 CORRECT TEXT The standard error of a Monte Carlo simulation is: A. Zero B. The same as that for a lognormal distribution C. Proportional to the inverse of the square root of the trial size D. None of the above Answer: C Explanation: When we do a Monte Carlo simulation, the statistic we obtain (eg, the expected price) is an estimate of the real variable. The difference between the real value (which would be what we would get if we had access to the entire population) and that estimated by the Monte Carlo simulation is measured by the ‘standard error’, which is the standard deviation of the difference between the ‘real’ value and the simulated value (ie, the ‘error’). As we increase the number of draws in a Monte Carlo simulation, the closer our estimate will be to the true value of the variable we are trying to estimate. But increasing the trial size does not reduce the error in a linear way, ie doubling the trial size does not halve the error, but reduces it by the inverse of the square root of the trial size. So if we have a trial size of 1000, going up to a trial size of 100,000 will reduce the standard error by a factor of 10 (and not 100), ie, SQRT(1/100) = 1/10. In other words, standard error is proportional to 1/N, where N is the sample size. Therefore Choice ‘c’ is correct and the others are incorrect. Question: 106 If the 1-day VaR of a portfolio is $25m, what is the 10-day VaR for the portfolio? A. $7.906m $79.06m B. $250m C. Cannot be determined without the confidence level being specified Answer: B Explanation: The 10-day VaR is = $25m x SQRT(10) = $79.06m. Choice ‘b’ is the correct answer. Question: 107 Which of the following are elements of ‘group risk’: I. Market risk II. Intra-group exposures III. Reputational contagion IV. Complex group structures A. II, III and IV B. II and III C. I and IV D. I and II Answer: A Explanation: The term ‘group risk’ has been defined in the FSA document 08/24 on stress testing as the risk that a firm may be adversely affected by an occurrence (financial or non-financial) in another group entity or an occurrence that affects ther group as a whole. These risks may occur through: – reputational contagion, – financial contagion, – leveraging, – double or multiple gearing, – concentrations and large exposures (particularly intra-group). Thus, the insurance sector may be considered a group, and a firm may suffer just because another group firm has had losses or reputational issues. The FSA statement goes on to identify some elements of group risk as follows: – intra-group exposures (credit or operational exposures through outsourcing or service arrangements, as well as more standard business exposures); – concentration risks (from credit, market or insurance risks which could put a strain on capital resources across entities simultaneously); – contagion (reputational damage, operational or financial pressures); and – complex group structures (with dependencies, complex split of responsibilities and accountabilities). Therefore Choice ‘a’ is the correct answer and the rest of the choices are incorrect.

A new study by Towers Watson has found that only 25% of change management initiatives are successful over the long term. While this may come as no shock - substantive change in organizations with entrenched cultures is always difficult - the study adds new data to an ongoing discussion. Some highlights from the study, the 2013 Change and Communication ROI Survey, which involved 276 large and midsize organizations from North America, Europe and Asia:
Over a long corporate career I was part of numerous change management initiatives - often involving worthwhile cultural issues such as increased employee empowerment, less bureaucracy, faster decision making, etc. - and these disappointing Towers Watson figures sound, unfortunately, entirely reasonable to me. Being in the midst of major cultural change in a large organization is a little like running through fields of molasses: The going is slow, with progress frustrating, messy and hard to measure. But there are things you can do to Excellerate your success odds. Based on my own experiences and observations, here are five suggestions. The change goals must be realistic - It's common for new management to come into an organization and be frustrated by what they find. But you can't expect, for example, a 100-year-old bank to behave like Snapchat (nor should you ever want it to!)... nor would you expect Victoria's Secret to adopt the risk orientation of, say, a life insurance company. Everyone may want to be the next Google , but is it really in your organization's cultural DNA? The desired end state has to be reasonable and attainable for the organization. Rolled-up-sleeves CEO involvement - For any chance of success, the chief executive needs to be genuinely and highly visibly committed to the initiative - something he or she really believes in. It's not a project to delegate to the head of HR. No cuff links for this one; sleeves need to be rolled up. Senior management has to walk the talk, not talk the walk - Beyond the CEO, the senior management cadre has to be fully on board and demonstrating by their behavior that this is something they care about, and not lip service paid to a pet project of their boss. Employees sense sincerity, or lack of it, quickly. Middle managers and supervisors need to know in their bones the reasons for the change - In short, they have to "get it."  All too often such initiatives are like trickle-down economics without the trickle down.  As the data above clearly shows, when it comes to change management... the lower you go, the less you often know. As Kathryn Yates, Tower Watson's global leader for communications consulting, notes, for front-line managers to succeed in these endeavors "companies need to train managers more effectively and do a much better job communicating with them." The organization must be in it for the long haul - As this multi-layered management approach suggests, there are no quick fixes. Substantive cultural change in an organization with a deeply entrenched culture is never an easy task. It's "all hands on deck" - all levels of management have to be closely aligned. To overstate a bit, it's a little like wars in Afghanistan. They require long-term commitment and staying power: otherwise the mountains, harsh climate and hostile tribes, I mean skeptical and resistant employees, will just outlast you. Many will still be there, long after management has grown war-weary, or moved on. *    *    * Victor is author of The Type B Manager: Leading Successfully in a Type A World (Prentice Hall Press).  Drexel’s Master of Science in Nonprofit Management: Public, Professional & Social Sectors helps you build a career with purpose—whether you’re just getting started, looking to transition or boosting your credentials in the nonprofit world.

A MARKETABLE DEGREE IN A GROWING FIELDAccording to the National Philanthropic Trust, as of 2015, there were 1,521,052 charitable organizations registered with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The Urban Institute reported the nonprofit sector contributed an estimated $905.9 billion to the US economy in 2013. The 2015 Nonprofit Employment Practices Survey revealed that 10.7 million employees are employed in the nonprofit sector, and 50% of nonprofits reported an intention to hire more staff (compared to the private sector’s 36%). With a third of financial advisors dissatisfied with the digital experience offered by the asset management industry, a recent survey also found that most advisors would be “extremely likely” to invest more with firms whose websites meet their expectations. The digital experience offered by the asset management industry has fallen behind the times when compared to other industries, according to a new study by J.D. Power. This failure to deliver on digital experience has diminished advisor satisfaction, which the study suggests can have a negative impact on their likelihood to engage or invest. “The asset management industry, as a whole, has been falling behind other industries,” Craig Martin, executive managing director and head of wealth and lending intelligence at J.D. Power, said. While the pace of website development and improvement has been accelerating “particularly in highly competitive sectors like banking,” 27% of advisors surveyed by J.D. Power said modern asset management websites do not deliver on “necessary basics.” Martin said this is particularly “noteworthy” because nearly 60% of advisors would be “extremely likely” to invest more with asset management firms whose websites meet their expectations. “Similar to the typical consumer, failing to meet the basic elements of foundational needs can turn advisors off or cause [them] to get frustrated or discouraged, which limits reuse in the future. “Having a site that requires a lot of time and effort from the advisor will limit their digital engagement with an asset manager.” Several anonymous respondents in the survey expressed frustration with the time taken to find information on asset management websites. “The way it is laid out is not easy to look at and find things. It doesn't seem like the site is logically planned out, making finding things hard. The solution is to call in to get help,” one respondent said. 3 keys to Excellerate site performanceJ.D. Power identified three key criteria that asset management websites must meet to deliver a “superior digital experience” for advisors. Websites must deliver valuable information and insights; make information easy to find and accessible; and be “foundationally sound” and user-friendly. Martin described the valuable component as the top-ranking element of this hierarchy. “The bottom two levels are key to enabling the top level, where the value to advisors is maximized,” he said. “No matter how good the content and tools are, if advisors struggle to locate the content or are unwilling to use the site, we find that their stated intent to invest new or additional assets at that firm in the next three months is dramatically diminished.” For asset management firms to maximize their appeal to advisors, all three criteria must be met, according to the survey’s findings. If the website meets basic foundational criteria, 20% of advisors are “extremely likely” to invest. The percentage increases to 31% if ease of access is achieved; and to 58% if all three key criteria are met. Other factors to considerAnother factor that could be negatively impacting advisor satisfaction is “a lack of focus on promoting and educating advisors on the digital capabilities that are available.” “On average, only 26% of advisors said the firm provides a demo or tour of the website and available resources, and 41% said their wholesaler or support rep. didn’t take any actions related to helping with digital,” Martin said. J.D. Power noted a decrease in overall satisfaction scores among advisors who said their wholesaler or support representative failed to provide website support. Advisors in this category had an average satisfaction rate of 581 out of 1,000. In contrast, the average satisfaction rate among advisors who received a demo or tour of the website and who were given resources for website support was 721. Additionally, Martin said the digital experience plays a “key role” in brand image with the next generation of advisors, who tend to use digital channels as their first point of inquiry. This was also suggested by some of the anonymous respondents. “I love [Company]. I hate the website now that all the additional other companies' funds are on it. It is very confusing and frustrating to find what I want,” said one. Asset management study findingsThe J.D. Power 2023 U.S. Advisor Online Experience Study scored the websites of 17 asset management firms based on an index model with five key performance indicators. Those indicators included: overall satisfaction, ease of navigation, visual appeal, speed, and research information and content. In each category, J.D. Power found that six firms scored below average while five firms scored above average. The study did not specify which companies ranked well or poorly in each category. For overall satisfaction, two companies scored significantly above average; three scored above average; three scored below average but not significantly; and three scored significantly below average. Overall scores for asset manager websites declined three points to 639 this year as compared to last year. For the study, 2,500 financial advisors were surveyed between May and August 2023. “From our financial advisor satisfaction study, we find that enabling advisor efficiency and effectiveness is key for advisor satisfaction,” Martin said.
