Abstract
This article focuses on some of the operational aspects of winding down a bank’s trading book portfolio and discusses the hidden exit costs that can sometimes exist. The article provides a deep dive on valuation principles and exit strategies currently considered by industry practitioners when designing a solvent wind-down plan. It also provides the reader with an overview of key underpinning valuation or pricing concepts, such as ‘fair value’, ‘realisable value’ and ‘solvent wind-down (SWD) value’.
