What is SA-CCR: Standardised Approach for Counterparty Credit Risk ?
The standardized approach for counterparty credit risk (SA-CCR) is a new computational method for exposure at default (EAD) under the Basel capital adequacy framework. This approach replaces the Current Exposure Method (CEM), used by banks in India, for measuring exposure for counterparty credit risk arising from derivative transactions, with effect from April 1, 2018. The…

What is Current Exposure Method of credit exposure?
The Current exposure method (CEM) is a measurement of the replacement cost within a derivative contract in the case of a counterparty default. Here, the credit equivalent amount of a market related off-balance sheet transaction calculated using the current exposure method which will be the sum of current credit exposure and potential future credit exposure…

Similarly, the ‘Random Sampling’ is a way of selecting a portion chosen from the population in order to make inferences about the whole population. For example, pre-polls or exit polls results obtained from random voters aims to…

What are Null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis?
A statistical hypothesis is also known as confirmatory data analysis which is testable on the basis of observing a process that is modeled via a set of random variables. Hypothesis testing is an act in statistics whereby an analyst tests an assumption regarding a population parameter. There are two different hypothesis viz. Null hypothesis and…
Read article What is regression analysis?
Regression analysis is a form of inferential statistics. It is a measure of the relation between the mean* value of one variable (e.g. output) and corresponding values of other variables (e.g. time and cost). Regression model can help predict sales for a company based on weather, previous sales, GDP growth or other types of conditions.…
What is the correlation coefficient r?
In statistics, the correlation coefficient r measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables on a scatterplot. The value of r is always between +1 and –1. The closer the value of r is to +1, the stronger the linear relationship. For example, suppose the value of Diesel prices are directly…
