Not every bank needs the full FRTB standardised approach. The Simplified Standardised Approach (SSA) offers institutions with small or medium trading books a regulatory-approved alternative with reduced implementation effort — while maintaining full CRR III compliance.

FRTB capital requirements take effect on 1 January 2027. A further postponement by the EU Commission alone is not possible. Institutions should assess SSA eligibility now.

We guide institutions step by step through the SSA implementation — from initial eligibility analysis to ongoing operations.
Assessment: analysis of current trading book size, product complexity and risk class structure
Eligibility review: comparison against CRR III thresholds (below EUR 1bn trading book, non-G-SIB/D-SIB, no correlation trading portfolios)
Capital calculation: implementation of four risk classes with regulatory scaling factors
Documentation: preparation of non-arbitrage proof versus the full SA
Operating model: establishment of ongoing threshold monitoring and periodic validation
"Implementing the Simplified Standardised Approach showed us that proportionality in regulation works. With the SSA, we can meet FRTB requirements efficiently without overloading our resources."

Choose the area that fits your requirements
Expected Shortfall (ES) is the central risk measure for market risk capital requirements under the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB). It replaces Value at Risk and measures the average loss in the tail of the loss distribution — at the 97.5% confidence level over a 250-day stress period. ADVISORI guides banks through implementation: from ES calculation through classification of modellable risk factors to regulatory validation.
FRTB Backtesting Requirements demand precise implementation of Basel III model validation with specific backtesting performance requirements and validation procedures. As a leading consulting firm, we develop tailored RegTech solutions for intelligent backtesting compliance, automated model performance monitoring, and strategic validation optimization with full IP protection.
The correct delineation between the trading book and banking book is critical for FRTB compliance and capital optimization. Together with you, we develop solid boundary management frameworks for precise classification and efficient management.
FRTB Credit Valuation Adjustment presents new challenges for capital calculation and risk management. Together with you, we develop comprehensive CVA frameworks for precise capital calculation, effective hedging, and sustainable compliance excellence.
The Fundamental Review of the Trading Book demands comprehensive market data, demonstrable risk factor modellability and audit-proof data governance. We build the data infrastructure your trading book needs — from real price observation pipelines and NMRF minimisation to automated data quality assurance.
The Fundamental Review of the Trading Book presents German banks with specific challenges. We develop tailored implementation strategies that meet BaFin requirements while accounting for the particularities of the German banking market.
Navigate the complex implementation of the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book with our comprehensive implementation support. We guide you through the entire process – from the initial assessment and gap analysis through concept development and system adaptation to full integration into your trading and risk management systems, including model adjustment, data infrastructure and process optimisation.
FRTB Implementation Strategy requires precise implementation of the Basel III Fundamental Review of the Trading Book with specific market risk capital requirements and supervisory validation. As a leading AI consultancy, we develop tailored RegTech solutions for intelligent FRTB compliance, automated trading book separation and strategic market risk optimization with full IP protection.
The FRTB Internal Models Approach (IMA) allows banks to use their own risk models for market risk capital calculations — provided they meet strict supervisory requirements for Expected Shortfall, backtesting and P&L attribution. As specialist FRTB consultants, ADVISORI supports institutions with IMA approval, model validation and ongoing compliance.
The Fundamental Review of the Trading Book requires fundamentally new market risk modeling: The sensitivity-based approach (SbA) calculates delta, vega and curvature risks across seven risk classes – GIRR, CSR (non-sec, sec CTP, sec non-CTP), equity, FX and commodity. We support banks in the methodological design, risk factor modeling and operational implementation of these requirements.
FRTB Non-Modellable Risk Factors require precise implementation of Basel III NMRF identification with specific capital calculation procedures and stress scenario calibration. As a leading AI consultancy, we develop tailored RegTech solutions for intelligent NMRF compliance, automated risk factor validation and strategic supervisory recognition optimization with full IP protection.
Ongoing adherence to FRTB requirements demands systematic monitoring, regular adjustments, and proactive optimization. We support you in establishing sustainable FRTB compliance.
FRTB Profit & Loss Attribution requires precise implementation of Basel III P&L allocation with specific risk factor decomposition requirements and model validation. As a leading AI consultancy, we develop tailored RegTech solutions for intelligent P&L attribution compliance, automated backtesting integration and strategic transparency optimisation with full IP protection.
Our comprehensive FRTB readiness assessment identifies gaps in your current systems, processes, and data, quantifies the impact on your capital, and delivers a tailored implementation roadmap for efficient FRTB compliance.
