Example 20.5 (Allocating the netting set)
Of the set’s USD 891 342 of CVA, Euler allocation assigns 160 167 to the swap and 731 175 to the cross-currency swap, against standalone CVAs of 288 250 and 768 334 (Figure 20.2). The swap, which offsets part of the cross-currency exposure, receives most of the netting benefit.
