  • BIS: Model Risk At Central Counterparties: Is Skin-In-The-Game A Game Changer?

    Date 25/05/2020

    Focus

    We investigate how central counterparties (CCPs) manage counterparty credit risks. CCPs play a key role in clearing derivative trades. They stand between clearing members, insuring them against counterparty credit risks. To manage these risks, CCPs ask their clearing members for collateral, ie initial margin. Model risk arises when a CCP underestimates potential credit losses in its initial margin model. If model risk were to materialise at a time of stress, it could lead to the CCP's failure - with systemic consequences.

    Date 25/05/2020

    The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today a preliminary assessment of the impact of COVID-19 on the EU banking sector. With the global economy facing unprecedented challenges, banks entered the health crisis with strong capital and liquidity buffers and managed the pressure on operational capacities activating their contingency plans. The crisis is expected to affect asset quality and, thus, profitability of banks going forward. Nonetheless, the capital accumulated by banks during the past years along with the capital relief provided by regulators amounts on average to 5p.p. above their overall capital requirements (OCR). This capital buffer should allow banks to withstand the potential credit risk losses derived from a sensitivity analysis based on the 2018 stress test.
