# Calculate Parallel Shift Sensitivity (DV01)

> Measures portfolio sensitivity to a parallel shift in the entire yield curve (all rates move by same amount). This is the classic DV01 metric showing dollar value change for 1 basis point parallel move. Fundamental for interest rate risk reporting and hedging with interest rate futures. [Tier: PRO, Credits: 5]
