Investment Grade and High Yield Spreads
Source: Barclays
Prepared by THE OFFICE OF NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER SCOTT M. STRINGER | Bureau of Asset Management
Starting Point: Oil Prices Decline
1. Energy Debt and equity prices weaken. 2. Concerns about
impact on the banks balance sheets.
3. Oil producing countries reserve de-cumulation, selling securities in developed markets.
4. Lower equity markets raise concerns about US and global growth.
5. Reduced employment and capital spending in energy sector. Deflationary and growth concerns pressure investment grade and high yield spreads wider.
6. Central Banks respond to lower inflation (largely oil) and weaker financial markets with additional QE and negative interest rates.
11
Spiraling effect of lower oil on broader asset markets
7. Monetary policy divergence leads to stronger dollar, pressuring emerging markets.
8. Additional pressure on bank stocks due to flattening yield curves and negative interest rates.

RISK REPORT DISCUSSION
Value at Risk (VaR)
If a portfolio has a 1-day 95%VaR of $1.32B, that means that there is a 5% probability that the portfolio will lose more than $1.32B in value in a single day. In other words a loss of $1.32B or more will occur on average once every 20 days.
During 5% of the days the expected loss is greater than 0.84% or $1.32 billion
VaR estimates how much a given investment might lose in normal market conditions, in a given time period, 1 day
in our case
Example
OFFICE OF NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER SCOTT M. STRINGER | Bureau of Asset Management
VaR (Continued)
• Losses on a portfolio that exceed the VaR should be expected – such losses are referred to as a “VaR breaks”
• VaR is not a “worst-case” loss
• The probability of a loss larger than the 95% VaR is difficult to estimate accurately and should be analyzed with stress testing based on long-term and broad market data
Combined PlanNAV 158,156,478,43595%VaR 1,321,051,69695%VaR / NAV 0.84%
OFFICE OF NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER SCOTT M. STRINGER | Bureau of Asset Management
Component Value at Risk (VaR)
• Component VaR is calculated using the correlations between asset classes and their VaR
Component VaR is the change in a portfolio's total VaR that comes from removing a particular investment from the portfolio
OFFICE OF NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER SCOTT M. STRINGER | Bureau of Asset Management
Component VaR (Continued)
• Negative Component VaR shows that the prices of certain fixed income investments are negatively correlated with the prices of other investments
• Such investments diversify the portfolio and reduce its VaR
OFFICE OF NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER SCOTT M. STRINGER | Bureau of Asset Management
Tracking Error
• Tracking Error is a measure of active risk; it shows how closely a portfolio follows its benchmark
• Excess Return is the portfolio return minus the benchmark return
• Tracking error is the standard deviation of the Excess Return, in our case over the past year
