Earnings at risk
Earnings at risk (EaR) and the related cash flow at risk (CFaR) [1] [2] [3] are measures reflecting the potential impact of market risk on the income statement and cash flow statement respectively, and hence the risk to the institution's return on assets and, ultimately, return on equity. EaR measures the impact on
possible shortfalls in cash flow
due to these.
Both are calculated Value at Risk
