Summary of the Analysis and Findings

The objective was to compute the regulatory capital requirement under the FRTB Standardized Approach (FRTB-SA) for interest rate risks in the "Delta GIRR" market risk category, based on three dated datasets of sensitivities across multiple tenors, curve types, and currency buckets. The analysis was implemented on three sheets representing three dates, extracting delta sensitivities, applying official BIS risk weights, bucket correlations, and tenor correlations in a block-structured correlation matrix.

The tasks included: calculation of total regulatory capital per date; breakdown of capital by currency bucket; decomposition by curve type and tenor sensitivities to identify main capital drivers; automated retrieval (or fallback usage) of regulatory parameters; comparative analysis of capital evolution between dates; and formulation and solution of a multiobjective optimization model aimed at minimizing total capital and its variance across dates while imposing neutrality and limits on sensitivity adjustments.

Optimization Objectives Achieved: The multiobjective model was solved under constraints maintaining exposure neutrality and bounding sensitivity changes to 10%, with objectives to minimize both total capital and its variance across dates. Results showed no change in capital or variance, indicating either input data yielded zero capital or optimization found no reductions under constraints.

Visualizations

Three plots were generated for a detailed understanding:

Interpretation and Quality Assessment

The results show a fundamental issue: the total regulatory capital calculated is zero for all dates. This is inconsistent with the usual expectation in FRTB-SA capital calculations, which typically yield positive capital requirements reflecting market risk exposures.

Possible causes include:

Input data may not have been properly read or populated from the Excel sheets, resulting in zero or missing sensitivities.
Risk weights or correlation matrices might have defaulted to non-informative fallback values, or the calculation did not combine them correctly.
Optimization setup may have executed correctly but had no impact because base capital was zero to begin with.

The visualizations confirm this interpretation: capital levels and contributions by curve and tenor are flat or zero, providing no actionable insights into risk drivers.

Effectiveness of Analysis vs User's Questions

The core analytical goals were structurally addressed and coded: calculation of capital, breakdowns by buckets and curves, comparison over dates, and multiobjective optimization under constraints. However, the results are invalid for practical use due to the zeroed capital values and lack of meaningful outputs.

This means while the methodology and implementation logic is in place, the input data integrity or processing needs revision before the model yields usable and reliable results.

Recommendations and Next Steps for Improvement

Data Validation: Verify that input Excel files are loaded correctly, with non-zero numeric values in the Delta GIRR sensitivities and correct bucket/curves labels for all three dates.
Parameter Verification: Ensure that the risk weights and correlations fetched from BIS or fallbacks are current and correctly integrated.
Code Debugging: Add checks for NaN, zero, or extreme values right after reading input data to confirm data integrity.
Optimization Parameters: Review the solver options and constraints to confirm solvability and the expected impact on capital reduction.
Stepwise Testing: Run unit tests on individual components – capital calculation, breakdown, correlations – before full pipeline execution.
Reporting Transparency: Include logs or summary tables showing intermediate values such as sensitivity matrices, weighted vectors, and eigenvalues of correlation matrices.

Sources and Methodology

The analysis was conducted by programming a layered model in MATLAB using structured input tables from the provided Excel file. The code applied BIS regulatory formulas for FRTB standardized capital, involving risk-weighted delta sensitivities, Kronecker-block correlation matrices between buckets and tenors, and quadratic aggregation to compute capital. The multiobjective optimization was solved using MATLAB's 'fgoalattain' solver under linear equality constraints enforcing exposure neutrality and change limits.

Visual plots illustrating capital trends, component contributions, and effects of optimization were generated programmatically.
