PRMIA 8011 Certification Exam is a professional certification program designed for professionals seeking to demonstrate their knowledge and expertise in credit and counterparty risk management. Credit and Counterparty Manager (CCRM) Certificate Exam certification program is offered by the Professional Risk Managers' International Association (PRMIA), a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the practice of risk management across all industries and sectors.

Q25. If A and B be two uncorrelated securities, VaR(A) and VaR(B) be their values-at-risk, then which of the following is true for a portfolio that includes A and B in any proportion. Assume the prices of A and B are log- normally distributed.

VaR(A+B) > VaR(A) + VaR(B)

VaR(A+B) = VaR(A) + VaR(B)

VaR(A+B) < VaR(A) + VaR(B)

The combined VaR cannot be predicted till the correlation is known

Q30. Conditional VaR refers to:

expected average losses conditional on the VaR estimates not being exceeded

value at risk when certain conditions are satisfied

expected average losses above a given VaR estimate

the value at risk estimate for non-normal distributions

Q31. When building a operational loss distribution by combining a loss frequency distribution and a loss severity distribution, it is assumed that:

Positive semi-definite

Q33. Which of the following is not a credit event under ISDA definitions?

Rating downgrade

Failure to pay

Q34. Which of the following is a valid approach to determining the magnitude of a shock for a given risk factor as part of a historical stress testing exercise?
I. Determine the maximum peak-to-trough change in the risk factor over the defined period of the historical event II. Determine the minimum peak-to-trough change in the risk factor over the defined period of the historical event III. Determine the total change in the risk factor between the start date and the finish date of the event regardless of peaks and troughs in between IV. Determine the maximum single day change in the risk factor and multiply by the number of days covered by the stress event

Q35. Which of the following are valid methods for selecting an appropriate model from the model space for severity estimation:
I. Cross-validation method
II. Bootstrap method
III. Complexity penalty method
IV. Maximum likelihood estimation method

II and III

I, II and III

I and IV

All of the above

Once we have a number of distributions in the model space, the task is to select the “best” distribution that is likely to be a good estimate of true severity. We have a number of distributions to pick from, an empirical dataset (from internal or external losses), and we can estimate the parameters for the different distributions.
We then have to decide which distribution to pick, and that generally requires considering both approximation and fitting errors.
There are three methods that are generally used for selecting a model:
1. The cross-validation method: This method divides the available data into two parts – the training set, and the validation set (the validation set is also called the ‘testing set’). Parameter estimation for each distribution is done using the training set, and differences are then calculated based on the validation set. Though the temptation may be to use the entire data set to estimate the parameters, that is likely to result in what may appear to be an excellent fit to the data on which it is based, but without any validation. So we estimate the parameters based on one part of the data (the training set), and check the differences we get from the remaining data (the validation set).
2. Complexity penalty method: This is similar to the cross-validation method, but with an additional consideration of the complexity of the model. This is because more complex models are likely to produce a more exact fit than simpler models, this may be a spurious thing – and therefore a ‘penalty’ is added to the more complex models as to favor simplicity over complexity. The ‘complexity’ of a model may be measured by the number of parameters it has, for example, a log-normal distribution has only two parameters while a body-tail distribution combining two different distributions may have many more.
3. The bootstrap method: The bootstrap method estimates fitting error by drawing samples from the empirical loss dataset, or the fit already obtained, and then estimating parameters for each draw which are compared using some statistical technique. If the samples are drawn from the loss dataset, the technique is called a non- parametric bootstrap, and if the sample is drawn from an estimated model distribution, it is called a parametric bootstrap.
4. Using goodness of fit statistics: The candidate fits can be compared using MLE based on the KS distance, for example, and the best one selected. Maximum likelihood estimation is a technique that attempts to maximize the likelihood of the estimate to be as close to the true value of the parameter. It is a general purpose statistical technique that can be used for parameter estimation technique, as well as for deciding which distribution to use from the model space.
All the choices listed are the correct answer.

Q36. Which of the following assumptions underlie the ‘square root of time’ rule used for computing VaR estimates over different time horizons?
I. the portfolio is static from day to day
II. asset returns are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.)
III. volatility is constant over time
IV. no serial correlation in the forward projection of volatility
V. negative serial correlations exist in the time series of returns
VI. returns data display volatility clustering
