Direct method – non-modellable risk factors

1.   Under the direct method, institutions shall apply the following steps in the following order:

(a)

they shall determine a time series of losses as follows:

(i)

they shall determine, in accordance with Article 3, the time series of 10 business days returns for the non-modellable risk factor for the stress period determined in accordance with Article 12;

(ii)

they shall apply to the value of the non-modellable risk factor the shocks that correspond to the returns in the time series of 10 business days returns determined in accordance with point (i);

(iii)

they shall determine the time series of losses by calculating the losses which would occur if the non-modellable risk factor takes the values obtained in accordance with point (ii);

(b)

they shall calculate the estimate of the right-tail expected shortfall in accordance with Article 11(2) for the time series of losses obtained in accordance with point (a).
