Quickstart Batch Risk APIs:  summary

Here is a sample and top level description of the key Risk APIs and associated inputs for configuring and running risk analyses. There is a detailed data dictionary for each input file. Please contact us for more details.  All risk outputs write to a BigQuery dataset configured for your company and can be accessed via the Google Cloud sdk (e.g. https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/bq-command-line-tool) or BQ API (https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/rest). Security, logs etc APIs use the Google Cloud Platform APIs (e.g. https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/reference/rest).

At the top level, the "QuickStart" APIs are:

• Upload Market Params: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/vannarho/market-params_upload_api/1.0.0

• Upload Risk Params: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/vannarho/risk-params_upload_api/1.0.0

• Start Risk Job: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/vannarho/start-risk_job/1.0.0

Based on the market and risk / analysis parameters provided (as discussed below), this API starts a risk job within the K8 cluster, monitors and reports on it's status and then updates Big Query.

This is the set of inputs around the nature of the analytics to be performed and the portfolio. 

The key inputs configurations are: 

• vannarho.xml: the master configuration file

• portfolio.xml: details of the trades

• netting.xml: CSA details

• pricingengine.xml: pricing engines to use per trade type

   
Upload Market Params

https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/vannarho/market-params_upload_api/1.0.0

This is the set of market data inputs which can be reused for different counterparty / portfolio analyses. 

It includes:

• market.txt: the market quotes for the AsOf date

• fixings.txt: historical prices to build curves

• todaysmarket.xml: specification of the different curves to use when pricing

• curveconfig.xml: The configuration of various term structures required to price a portfolio 

• conventions.xml: The conventions to associate with a set market quotes in the construction of termstructures 

The way these interact for a hypothetical IT Swap is outlined in the diagram below.
