Cross-Border Systemic Risk Monitor

Systemic risk you can reproduce, audit, and defend.

CBSRM reproduces the canonical systemic-risk and financial-stability measures used by central banks and supervisors — in modern, typed, fully-tested Python — under one Protocol, one SHA-256 audit chain, and one reproducibility guarantee. Built around SR 26-2 model-risk-management principles.

Today's systemic-risk readings.

The same canonical indices CBSRM reproduces — computed from the latest public data, each value dated to its provider's last publication, content-hash stamped, and refreshed automatically every day. Not a backtest; the current read.

Why CBSRM exists

Most systemic-risk numbers can't survive a model review.

Academic code lives in R, Stata, and MATLAB; commercial systems are black boxes; reference numbers come from vendors that don't agree. None of that clears a model-risk function. CBSRM is methodology-first.

The status quo

Fragmented implementations, undocumented assumptions, vendor numbers you can't reproduce, and no lineage from input to published figure. A reviewer asks "why is this number what it is?" — and no one can say.

CBSRM

Every number is reproducible from source. Every methodology stage carries its own version. Every lifecycle event is written to a SHA-256 audit chain. One Protocol covers stress indicators and risk-pricing measures alike — adding a method is one file plus one registration line.

The methodology

Six canonical methods. Thirteen live lenses. One auditable spine.

One pipeline resolves the questions a financial-stability desk actually asks — how stressed is the system, which firms carry the tail, how does shock propagate, and what regime are we in. The same methods now run live in the terminal, alongside a global cross-asset quant cockpit and a turnkey SR 26-2 model-validation binder.

01 · SYSTEM STRESS

Composite stress indices

CISS-family stress (US / Euro-Area / UK), STLFSI4, and the OFR Financial Stress Index — quadratic-form aggregation that amplifies in correlated stress.

Holló · Kremer · Lo Duca (2012)
02 · FIRM TAIL-CONTRIBUTION

SRISK & LRMES

Expected capital shortfall of a firm conditional on a systemic market decline — who would need recapitalising in a crisis, and by how much.

Brownlees · Engle (2017)
03 · TAIL SPILLOVER

ΔCoVaR & MES

The system's value-at-risk conditional on an institution in distress, and each firm's marginal expected shortfall — tail dependence, not average correlation.

Adrian · Brunnermeier (2016) · Acharya et al. (2017)
04 · NETWORK CONTAGION

DebtRank

A pure-numpy DebtRank engine over the interbank exposure network — distress that propagates once through the graph, ranking systemic importance by impact.

Battiston et al. (2012)
05 · MACRO REGIME

4-state macro composite

Yield-curve recession probit, the Sahm rule, FFR/USD regimes, and a four-state composite that classifies the prevailing macro-financial regime.

Estrella · Mishkin (1996) · Sahm (2019)
+ · CONNECTEDNESS

Diebold-Yilmaz spillover

Generalized FEVD spillover index measuring cross-asset connectedness — how shocks in one sector transmit to the rest of the system.

Diebold · Yilmaz (2012)

The differentiator

A governed pipeline your model-risk reviewers can verify.

CBSRM's L3 Composer assembles every stage into one content-addressed PipelineRecord — the difference between a quant toolbox and a model-governance system.

  • One governed pipeline. A single record spans every stage with a uniform date convention, a uniform identifier & version contract, and explicit input → output lineage.
  • #Content-addressed lineage. Each stage carries a SHA-256 content hash; a methodology change produces a different hash a diff catches immediately. "Did the model change?" becomes a string comparison.
  • Tamper-evident. verify_pipeline_record() re-derives every hash from the record's own data — proof the published figure was not altered after composition.
  • SHA-256 audit chain. Every lifecycle event — requested, fetched, computed, served — is written to a hash-linked ledger you can replay and verify end to end.
  • §SR 26-2 aligned. Purpose & use, conceptual soundness, ongoing monitoring, and outcomes analysis map directly onto the architecture — the validation conversation, pre-answered.

The live terminal — sign in and watch systemic risk in real time.

Six desks under one governed roof — live systemic conditions, a global cross-asset quant cockpit, governed crisis dossiers, live capital-shortfall, and a turnkey model-validation binder. Every reading is reproducible, content-addressed, and audit-logged. Start free for 7 days — no card required.

01 · CONDITIONS

Live conditions · 13 lenses

ECB CISS (US/EA/UK), Fed financial stress, yield-curve recession probability, VIX, a real Diebold-Yilmaz cross-border spillover index, HY credit, fund-redemption fragility, ESG transition — each with history & analytics.

02 · QUANT COCKPIT

Cross-asset risk · any symbol

World indices, FX, commodities, mega-caps, crypto. Sharpe / Sortino / annualised & EWMA vol / beta / VaR & CVaR / drawdown, plus a candlestick chart with projected levels and a volatility cone.

03 · CRISIS PIPELINE

Governed crisis dossiers

Reproducible GFC / COVID / SVB dossiers — a system-stress gauge, DebtRank network contagion, regime classification, and a cross-crisis comparison — each a content-addressed PipelineRecord you can verify.

04 · CAPITAL SHORTFALL

SRISK & ΔCoVaR · live

Live SRISK Σ capital-shortfall + per-firm + ΔCoVaR across the major banks, computed with the NYU V-Lab (Brownlees-Engle) and Adrian-Brunnermeier engines from public balance sheets, market cap, and prices.

05 · MODEL VALIDATION

SR 26-2 MRM binder

Model inventory & materiality tiering, conceptual soundness with citations, a materiality-rated assumption register, an SRISK parameter-sensitivity sweep, Monte-Carlo convergence, and an attestation block — so your model-risk function can sign off.

06 · GOVERNED
