A bank’s Value at Risk (VaR) determines the amount of capital that it must set aside to satisfy bank regulations. VaR relates to the size of potential trading losses; the greater the VaR, the greater a trading loss the bank could suffer and consequently the more capital it must set aside. This reduces the probability […]
