French term

introduit une dissymétrie

French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
Here is the segment in context:
En effet, la non prise en compte dans la VaR de marché des sensibilités de la CVA comptable introduit une dissymétrie (prise en compte des couvertures mais pas des sensibilités)

This short section is from a financial document dealing with counterparty risk management for market transactions. I'm not sure what 'introduit une dissymétrie is implying here'. Any help is much appreciated.

introduces an asymmetry

It skews the probability distribution in one direction or the other. If your calculated VaR assumes a Gaussian normal distribution, it will be wrong.
