medium · Frm Part 2 Liquidity & Treasury Risk

An institutional scenario describes a bank holding a massive position in a thinly traded emerging market bond. The position is 20 times the average daily volume (ADV) of the bond.

When calculating 'Liquidity-Adjusted VaR' (LVaR), which component is likely to be the most significant error if ignored?

  1. The 'ghost effect' of previous liquidity crises in the look-back window.
  2. The diversification benefit between the bond's interest rate risk and its liquidity risk.
  3. Exogenous liquidity risk, as the bid-ask spread is likely to be wide for emerging market assets.
  4. Endogenous liquidity risk, as the liquidation of the position will move the market price against the bank.
