| Form-Specifc Guidance: |
An ADI that has approval from APRA to use the delta-plus method must report this item.
ADIs using this method must first calculate the delta-equivalent position of each option. The delta-equivalent position is calculated by multiplying the market value of the underlying position by the absolute value of the delta calculated on that position.
Gamma impact:
Where applicable, ADIs must calculate the gamma impact of each option as detailed in APS 116.
Vega impact:
Where applicable, ADIs must calculate the vega impact of each option as detailed in APS 116.
Total capital charge:
Total capital charge is a derived field that sums up the gamma impact and the vega impact.
