Scenario analysis for portfolios

Scenario design and stress testing explore how portfolios and funds would fare under severe but plausible conditions: disorderly transitions, physical climate shocks, market-wide redemptions or sudden rate rises. They complement statistical risk measures where history offers little guide, and their value lies in transparent assumptions rather than in any single result.

What scenario design and stress testing does here.

Scenario design and stress testing construct plausible, severe future conditions to examine how سیستەمەکان and institutions would perform. They complement probabilistic analysis where data are scarce or futures are deeply uncertain. In capital markets and investment, climate and hazards and biodiversity and nature, stress tests reveal vulnerabilities that arise when several risks materialise together. They inform capital, contingency and coordination plans across sectors. The canonical description is on the STEM Commons.

Climate scenario analysis of portfolios

NGFS pathways are translated into sector and company shocks to earnings, asset values and credit spreads, then applied to holdings, with each translation step and its assumptions recorded.

System-wide redemption and margin scenarios

Fund outflows, collateral calls and dealer capacity are combined in one scenario so that second-round sales across funds with common holdings can be traced.

Reverse stress testing

The analysis starts from an outcome a board cannot accept, such as suspended dealing or a funding shortfall, and works back to the combinations of conditions that would cause it.

05Scenario model

Transition and physical risk on a portfolio.

Three scenario families after the NGFS framework move a sector portfolio through carbon costs and warming damages; the transmission view follows the losses to lenders, investors, public finances and households. Scenario: named assumptions about the future, not a forecast.

Transition and physical risk on a portfolio. Illustrative teaching model: it runs on the values set by the controls, not on measured data. Methods: Climate scenario families (NGFS (2023), Climate Scenarios for central banks and supervisors, Phase IV); Climate stress test of the financial system (Battiston and others (2017), Nature Climate Change 7); Damage function (Nordhaus (2017), Revisiting the social cost of carbon, PNAS 114).

How results are checked.

Scenarios are reviewed for plausibility, internal consistency and severity relative to history. Exercise outcomes are compared with actual events when they occur.

بپشکنەHow it is done
Plausibility and severity reviewScenarios are compared with historical episodes and with supervisory severity levels
Internal consistencyShocked variables are checked against each other so no scenario combines incompatible paths
Assumption registerEvery behavioural and pricing assumption is listed with its source and the sensitivity of the result to it

Scenario choice can reflect prevailing assumptions and miss novel combinations. Results depend on how participants and models represent responses.

07Exposure, loss and capital

What scenario analysis for portfolios means for exposure, loss and capital.

The exposure, loss, scenario and capital views a risk officer, supervisor or ministry of finance would ask for, with the frameworks they report against. Structures follow supervisory and actuarial practice. Values are illustrative: never prices, ratings or advice.

Scenario pathways
