NLM-CD: a regime-conditional neighbourhood linkage method for central counterparty risk classification

Existing central counterparty risk models treat clearing members as homogeneous and assume static risk parameters, ignoring the regime-dependent nature of member risk profiles. This paper proposes NLM-CD (neighbourhood linkage method – conditional distance), a regime-conditional agglomerative clustering algorithm that classifies clearing members by risk profile across distinct market states.

Abstract

Existing central counterparty risk models treat clearing members as homogeneous and assume static risk parameters, ignoring the regime-dependent nature of member risk profiles. This paper proposes NLM-CD (neighbourhood linkage method – conditional distance), a regime-conditional agglomerative clustering algorithm that classifies clearing members by risk profile across distinct market states.
