Configurations
The following screenshot shows configurations for this program. SourceFilePath attribute captures the source market data CSV file and TargetFolderPath captures the folder, into which all market scenario files will be created. Finally, ScenarioConfigurationsPath captures the folder, which contains all XML scenario configuration files. This configuration XML file should be stored in a chosen directory.
<Configurations> <!-- attributes for scenario generator settings --> <ScenarioConfigurationsPath>\\Temp\ScenarioConfigurations\</ScenarioConfigurationsPath> <SourceFilePath>\\Temp\baseMarket.csv</SourceFilePath> <TargetFolderPath>\\Temp\Scenarios\</TargetFolderPath> </Configurations>
Market data
The following screenshot shows given base market data. Due to brevity reasons, only EUR swap curve has been used here as an example. All market data points are defined here as key-value pairs (ticker, value).

We can clearly see, that the system used for constructing market data tickers leads to scheme, in which every market data point will have one and only one unique ticker. This will then guarantee, that we can drill down and stress individual market data points with regex expressions, if so desired. This data should be copied into CSV file (directory has been defined in previous configuration file).
Scenario configurations
The following screenshot shows XML configurations for one market scenario. One such scenario can have several different scenario items (Say, stress these rates up, stress those rates down, apply these changes to all FX rates against EUR and set hard-coded values for all CDS curves). From these configurations, ID and description are self-explainable. Attribute regExpression captures all regex expressions (scenario items), which will be searched from risk factor tickers. As soon as regex match is found, the program will use corresponding operationType attribute to identify desired stress operation (addition, multiplication or hard-coded value). Finally, the amount of change which will be applied in risk factor value is defined within stressValue attribute. This XML configuration should be stored (directory has been defined in program configuration file).
<!-- operation types : 0 = ADDITION, 1 = MULTIPLICATION, 2 = HARD-CODED VALUE --> <Scenario> <ID>CURVE.STRESS</ID> <description>custom stress scenario for EUR swap curve</description> <regExpression>^IR.EUR-EURIBOR.CASH,^IR.EUR-EURIBOR-6M.FRA,^IR.EUR-EURIBOR-6M.SWAP</regExpression> <operationType>1,0,2</operationType> <stressValue>1.25,0.015,0.05</stressValue> </Scenario>
Finally, the following screenshot shows resulting market data, when all configured scenario items have been applied. This is the content of output CSV file, created by this Python program.

Handy way to create and test regex expressions is to use any online tool available. As an example, the first scenario item (^IR.EUR-EURIBOR.CASH) has been applied to a given base market data. The last screenshot below shows all regex matches.
Have a great start for the year 2019 and thanks a lot again for reading my blog.
