Usage Examples

Using the Risk Management Hook

import { useRiskManagement } from '@/hooks/useRiskManagement'

export function MyComponent() {
  const risk = useRiskManagement('portfolio-1')

  // Access state
  const { riskAssessment, alerts, hedgingStrategies } = risk

  // Fetch data
  await risk.fetchDashboardData()

  // Run stress test
  const scenarios = [...]
  await risk.runStressTest(scenarios)

  // Optimize hedging
  await risk.optimizeHedge(30) // 30% risk reduction target

  // Manage alerts
  risk.acknowledgeAlert(alertId)

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Risk Score: {risk.riskAssessment?.overallRiskScore}</p>
      <p>Alerts: {risk.alerts.length}</p>
    </div>
  )
}

Integrating the Dashboard

import { RiskDashboard } from '@/components/risk'

export function DashboardPage() {
  return (
    <div className="p-6">
      <RiskDashboard />
    </div>
  )
}

Accessing Risk Service Directly

import { riskManagementService } from '@/services/risk/risk-service'

const assessment = riskManagementService.calculateRiskAssessment(positions)
const varMetrics = riskManagementService.calculateVaR(returns, 0.95, 'historical')
const alerts = riskManagementService.generateAlerts(assessment, thresholds)

Configuration & Customization

Modifying Risk Thresholds

// In useRiskManagement hook
const ALERT_THRESHOLDS = {
  'overall-risk': 70,        // Adjust as needed
  'var': 0.05,
  'correlation-spike': 0.8,
  'liquidity-spread': 0.05,
}

Customizing VaR Methods

const varMetrics = riskManagementService.calculateVaR(
  returns,
  0.99,                    // Confidence level
  'monteCarlo'             // 'historical', 'parametric', or 'monteCarlo'
)

Creating Custom Stress Scenarios

const customScenarios: StressScenario[] = [
  {
    id: 'scenario-1',
    name: 'Oil Price Spike',
    description: '50% increase in oil prices',
    variables: [
      {
        name: 'oil-price',
        baseValue: 100,
        stressValue: 150,
        changePercentage: 50,
      },
    ],
    probability: 0.01,
    impact: 'high',
  },
]

const results = riskManagementService.runStressTest(positions, customScenarios)

Security Considerations

  1. Data Sensitivity: Risk data is financial sensitive

    • Implement authentication and authorization
    • Use HTTPS for all API calls
    • Encrypt sensitive data in transit and at rest

  2. Access Control:

    • Role-based access (Trader, Risk Manager, Compliance)
    • Portfolio-level permissions
    • Audit logging for all risk operations

  3. Validation:

    • All position data validated
    • Risk inputs sanitized
    • Thresholds verified server-side

Monitoring & Alerts

System Health Monitoring

  • Dashboard uptime tracking
  • Calculation performance monitoring
  • Data freshness verification
  • Alert system status

Key Metrics to Monitor

  • Risk score trends
  • Alert volume and types
  • System performance (calculation times)
  • Cache hit ratios
  • User engagement

Future Enhancements

  1. Advanced Analytics:

    • Machine learning for anomaly detection
    • Predictive risk analysis
    • Historical trend analysis

  2. Integration:

    • Real-time news sentiment analysis
    • Market data feeds (Bloomberg, Reuters)
    • REST API for external systems

  3. Reporting:

    • PDF/CSV export with custom templates
    • Scheduled report generation
    • Email distribution
    • Compliance reporting

  4. Mobile Support:

    • Mobile-responsive dashboard
    • Push notifications for critical alerts
    • Mobile app for iOS/Android

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: VaR calculations are slow

  • Solution: Reduce historical data window or use parametric method

Issue: Alerts not triggering

  • Solution: Check threshold values and ensure auto-refresh is enabled

Issue: Portfolio analysis shows stale data

  • Solution: Click Refresh button or check data API connection
