CA-13.4.9

Conventional bank licensees doing business in certain classes of complex exotic options (e.g. barrier options involving discontinuities in deltas etc.), or in options at the money that are close to expiry, are required to use either the scenario approach or the internal models approach, both of which can accommodate more detailed revaluation approaches. The CBB expects the concerned conventional bank licensees to work with it closely to produce an agreed method, within the framework of these rules. If a conventional bank licensee uses scenario matrix analysis, it must be able to demonstrate that no substantially larger loss could fall between the nodes.
