2
THE ROAD TO SYSTEMATIC RISKS Number of crisis over time appears to be rising 370 years of cyclical crises always resulted from decoupling the perception of current risk versus future value
3
REGULATIONS AIM AT DE-RISKING VITAL ACTIVITIES Systematic risks through countercyclical prudential supervisory measures. BCBS 164 on strengthening resilience contains proposals for capital buffers to contain leverage and exposure Idiosyncratic risk stabilised through adjusted through risk adjusted capital reserves
4
IDIOSYNCRATIC RISK MANAGEMENT IS TO BALANCE THE CREATION OF VALUE WITH EXPOSURE TO RISK FACTORS Risk is a measure of sensitivity to factors of exposure under scenarios Managing risk is to align the firm’s exposure to the risk factors with its appetite for it

Market Risks (VaR) Credit Risks (CVaR, PFE) Markets Portfolios Economy Growth Country Operations MANAGED IN SILOS, RISK IS NECESSARILY AGGREGATED BY MODELS Banking BooksTrading Books Market Risks (ALM) Credit Risks (EL=PDx [ 1-LGD ] ) Collateral Market Risks (Haircut) Credit Risks (EAD) Operational Risks (PE x LGE) or OpVaR Net RWA Markets Portfolios Economy Growth Country Operations Markets Portfolios Economy Growth Country Operations ),()(),,(jiELVaRjiUL Aggregated Loss Distribution EL

A FOCUS ON LOW IMPACT HIGH FREQUENCY EVENTS REDUCES CAPITAL CHARGE… Probability of Loss Event Expected Losses VaRCatastrophic Scenario Loss Impact But increases exposure to tail risks… Repetitive tail events Stressed VaR Outside the scope of B II Scope of Basle II Expected losses Outside the scope of Basle II..and to system externalities. Interval of confidence
7
CREATE A CULTURE OF RISK MANAGEMENT – KEEP IT ALIVE Risk Intelligence No financial instrument is inherently risky Valuation and aggregation methodology (covariance) depend on the nature of tail events Crashes follow booms, but the future is not like the past Restore the balance Capital Efficiency / Risk to align Corporate Governance and Risk Appetite Support Regulatory Compliance with information on market behaviour in addition to statistical analysis

12
THE FALLACY OF MODERN FINANCE THEORY Modern finance theory leads to Measuring expected return as a function of volatility (CAPM) Diversifying risks through expectations of low covariance Expressing tail event probabilities as a frequency of occurrence The act of (collectively) observing an area of financial safety makes it risky A. Persaud. Dec 2002

COVARIANCE RELIES ON INVESTORS’ BEHAVIOUR NOT ON HISTORICAL DATA Variables are wrongly assumed to be independent
14
SPIRIT OF BASLE III (BCBS 164 on Strengthening Resilience) Quality and consistency of capital base T1 Equity only T2 5 year minimum maturity, hybrids phased out T3 abolished Enhanced risk coverage Stressed VaR (includes periods of stress) Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) to represent counterparty risk in market exposure Push on centralised clearing counterparties Wrong-Way risk Leverage ratio Ratio added to Pillar1 calculated with credit conversion factors Focus on off-balance sheet items Counter-cyclical measures Probability of Default (PD) and Exposure At Default (EAD) computed over long term Expected Loss (EL) to replace IAS39 Capital buffers to limit excess credit and leverage Global Liquidity Standard (BCBS 165)

VARIABLE CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIOS & CROSS-SYSTEM SIMULATIONS Combine modeling, human judgment and consensus based consultation Adjust regulatory policies according to risk intelligence Anticipate bubbles and eradicate systemic risk
