8.6.3.6 Assignment Method – Leg 1

This option determines how the primary assumption value is allocated to time buckets. There are specific methods in which the assumption value can be distributed across buckets. Assignment methods determine the manner in which the primary assumption values are assigned to multiple buckets in order to determine the cash flows. Leg 1 is applicable when only one leg of the transaction is affected i.e. when the assumption legs field value is selected as One.

The options are as follows:

  1. Selected Time Bucket - This method assigns the cash flows only to the time buckets against which the assumption value is specified. If the assumption is not specified on Level 0 buckets, then the assignment to the more granular buckets is done proportionately to the bucket size.

    The formula is as follows:
    cash flow

    The time buckets used for computation are as follows:

    Table 7-72 Time buckets

    N_BUCKET_NO V_BUCKET_NAME V_BUCKET_NAME_CATEGORY
    1 Overnight Overnight
    2 1-10Days 1-15Days
    3 11-15Days 1-15Days
    4 16-20Days 16-30Days
    5 21-25Days 16-30Days
    6 26-30Days 16-30Days

    The example below illustrates allocation of cash flows when the assumption value is specified for a Level 0 bucket

    Table 7-73 Assignment Method Leg 1 - Selected Time Bucket Example 1

    Assumption Category Assumption Unit Applied to Assignment Method Based On
    Cash Flow Movement- Run-off Percentage Original Balance Selected Cash Flow

    Table 7-74 Assignment Method Leg 1 - Selected Time Bucket Example 1

    Business Assumption Computation
    Product Customer From Bucket To Bucket Run-off % Contractual Cash Flow (From Bucket) Contractual Cash Flow (To Bucket) Run-off Revised Cash flow - From Bucket Revised Cash flow -To Bucket

    33000

    (30000+ 3000)

    20000

    (23000--3000)

    However, this allocation differs for Levels other than Level 0 buckets as Illustrated in the following example.

    The example below illustrates, the selected Cash Flow assignment method on Level 1 buckets

  2. Increasing assignment - The cash flows are assigned to each bucket up to the selected bucket in increasing order based on ranks assigned to cash flows. Assignments are made in increasing order to the selected level and further assignment is done until the most granular level.

    The formulae under different conditions are as follows:

    1. When, Cash Flow Based Assumptions, Assumption Unit = Percentage
      Cash flow inc_CF_based_percentage

    2. When, Assumption Unit = Value
      Cash flow
