SocGen’s VAR up 33% in Q4

Gap with French rival BNP Paribas shrinks to just €9 million, the least since mid-2020

Societe Generale’s trading value-at-risk averaged €24 million ($26 million) over the last quarter of 2022, a one-third increase compared with Q3.

The jump was driven by higher interest rate, credit and equity risk, which put the indicator – the bank’s estimate of the most its trading desk could lose on any given day – at its highest since end-2020.
