Job Description:

Basel 2.5 requires the computation of a Comprehensive Risk Measure (CRM) and Incremental Risk Charge (IRC). A Monte Carlo simulation approach is used to calculate the CRM / IRC values at the 99.9% confidence level, over a one year horizon. All trades are valued for each one of the simulated market data paths (scenarios). Once these valuations (i.e. mark-to-market (MTMs)) are computed, the portfolio level MTMs for each path (scenario) can be sorted, so that the portfolio MTM with only .1% of the valuations worse (less) than it can be selected as the CRM / IRC number.
