White Paper | FRTB's Sensitivity Based Approach: Methodology, Procedure and Business Impact

All banks subject to the Fundamental Review of Trading Book (FRTB) will now be required to use the Standardized Approach in some capacity, even if their trading desks utilize an Internal Model Approach (IMA). Desks using an IMA will still need to calculate the SA and compare the two–with the SA possibly providing a floor to the capital requirements in many cases. The Sensitivity Based Approach (SBA) will be a critical component of FRTB reporting, and while many financial institutions are already prepared to conduct SBA calculations–many are not.
