This chapter gives a general introduction to market risk and how the market risk is captured by OCTARISK. Thereby the following convention is made: market movement means the movement around the mean value or, in other words, the possible deviation from the expected value as time passes. Stronger movement around the expected value means more risk and results in a higher standard deviation, the most important statistic parameter for capturing market risk.
