Risk Model Parameters

Institutional slippage analysis, volatility index computation, and dynamic risk parameter models. All metrics derived from 14 years of live market microstructure data.

I. Slippage Analysis Model

Slippage is modeled as a function of order size S, market impact coefficient κ, and instantaneous liquidity depth L(t). The expected slippage Σ for a given instrument is:

Σ(S) = κ · (S / L(t))^α + ε(t)

where α ∈ [0.4, 0.7] for liquid FX pairs, ε(t) ~ N(0, σ²_market)

II. Volatility Index (FI-VIX)

FundInsight Volatility Index (FI-VIX) is computed using a 30-day rolling EWMA of realized variance RV, adjusted for intraday jump diffusion components J(t):

EWMA Realized Variance

RV_t = (1-λ)·r²_t + λ·RV_{t-1}

λ = 0.94 (RiskMetrics standard)

FI-VIX Composite Score

FI-VIX = √(252 · RV_t) · (1 + J(t)/σ)

Annualized, adjusted for jump diffusion
