Test Logic Market Fairness

Project duration: 6 days

Brief description

In particular, according to MaRisk, an investment bank must ensure that each individual transaction has been concluded on market terms. As part of this project, approaches for various financial products were analyzed and evaluated.

Supplement

To test marketability, the customer uses standard software that enables the majority of transactions to be audited automatically. A particular challenge in this context are illiquid products. To this end, the customer has developed his own mathematical models in order to support semi-automatic testing as far as possible. As part of this project, mathematical modeling for these product types was analyzed on the one hand. Since the estimation of the parameters used in the model is already several years old, on the other hand these parameters are recalculated on the basis of current market data, and a backtesting for performance analysis is proposed. In addition, various duration measures are calculated for a given class of illiquid products that easily allow for statements in a shift of the underlying base rate curve. Based on these metrics, measures for automated testing are discussed.

Subject description

In the context of a planned replacement of the customer's standard software, the analyses carried out provide valuable information on functionalities in the target system. These points are incorporated and taken into account in the design of the test logic for the target system.
