hard · FRM Part 2 Liquidity & Treasury Risk

A risk manager is comparing the Liquidity-Adjusted VaR (LVaR) for a linear unwind over n= 10 days versus a standard 10-day holding period VaR.

If the 1-day 99% VaR is V_1d, which of the following statements correctly quantifies the relationship between the two measures?

  1. The two measures are identical because the average holding period is 5 days.
  2. The linear unwind LVaR is exactly half of the 10-day holding period VaR.
  3. The linear unwind LVaR is higher than the 10-day holding period VaR because it includes exit costs.
  4. The linear unwind LVaR is approximately 38% lower than the 10-day holding period VaR.
