An Enterprise also must calculate an advanced measure for spread risk by following the steps in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.

(b)or
(c)of this section. An Enterprise also must calculate the advanced measure for spread risk, which equals the sum of the spread risk capital requirements of all covered positions calculated using one or more of its internal models.

(i)The market value of the covered position; multiplied by
(ii)The spread duration of the covered position determined by the Enterprise using one or more of its internal models; multiplied by

(2)Applicable spread shock assumption. The applicable spread shock is:
(i)0.0015 for a multifamily mortgage exposure;
