===Calculating your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}}===
===Calculating your {{{{{1}}}|Credit Support Amount}}===
Superficially things are quite different between the {{csa}} and the {{vmcsa}}, but this all boils down to the fact that the {{vmcsa}} is ''meant'' to be a zero-threshold, [[variation margin]]-only affair, so the concepts of {{csaprov|Independent Amount}} and {{csaprov|Threshold}}, both of which confuse the {{csa}}, aren’t there to get in the way. Unless you go and put them in anyway, as we shall see...

How the {{csaprov|IA}} contributes to the {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} — being the amount of credit support in total that one party must have given the other at any time<ref>As opposed to the amount required to be transferred ''on that day'', considering the “{{csaprov|Credit Support Balance}}” the {{csaprov|Transferee}} already holds — that’s the {{csaprov|Delivery Amount}} or {{csaprov|Return Amount}}, [[as the case may be]].</ref> under the {{csa}} can be mind-boggling.

*The {{csaprov|Transferor}}’s {{csaprov|Threshold}} is 5,000,000
*The {{csaprov|Transferor}}’s {{csaprov|Threshold}} is 5,000,000


Your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is therefore ''10,000,000 + 2,000,000 - (0 + 5,000,000) = '''7,000,000'''''.  
Your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is therefore the greater of zero and ''10,000,000 + 2,000,000 - 0 + 5,000,000) = '''7,000,000'''''.  


Now, whether you have to ''pay'' anything or ''receive'' anything as a result — whether there is a {{csaprov|Delivery Amount}} or a {{csaprov|Return Amount}}, in other words — depends whether your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is greater or smaller than your prevailing {{csaprov|Credit Support Balance}}, by at least the {{csaprov|Minimum Transfer Amount}}.

Since the {{vmcsa}} assumes there is no Independent Amounts and no Thresholds, it is quite a lot easier. It is just the Exposure. So much so, that there isn't even a concept of the Credit Support Amount under the {{vmcsa}}, unless you have retrofitted one, and who in their right mind would do that?

Oh.
Oh.


You have, haven’t you. You’ve gone and co-opted the {{vmcsaprov|Credit Support Amount (VM/IA)}} concept in your Paragraph 11 annex. Yes you did. No, don’t blame your credit department; don’t say you were just following orders. ''You did it''.

Never mind. Well, just for you, the formula is a sort of half-way house: Under this unholy bastardisation of a {{vmcsa}}, a {{vmcsaprov|Transferee}}’s {{vmcsaprov|Credit Support Amount}} will be: '''''Max[0, (E<sub>Tee</sub> + IA<sub>Tor</sub> - (IA<sub>Tee</sub>)].)''''' <br>
