20 Issue 1 - Embedded optionality • The CSA permits: § Delivering Party choice 20 Issue 1 - Embedded optionality • The CSA permits: § Delivering Party choice of collateral asset from the list of Eligible Collateral § Delivering Party ability to substitute collateral § Receiving Party consent for substitutions under English Law CSAs (to reduce re-characterization risk) • These are options and have economic value. § How can we project their future value? § How can they be priced? § Extreme pricing complexity § Impossible to hedge § “The CSA is the most exotic of exotic derivatives” 3

21 Issue 2 - Embedded funding mismatch • The CSA takes the mark-to-market exposure 21 Issue 2 - Embedded funding mismatch • The CSA takes the mark-to-market exposure of many transactions in different currencies, nets them, and requires collateral to cover that amount (ignoring Thresholds, MTAs and IA). • In most cases, the collateral is delivered in a single currency, often USD or EUR. • Interest accrues at the overnight index rate for the relevant currency of the collateral actually delivered, e. g. Fed Funds or EONIA. • This creates a mismatch in funding currency and interest accrual between the underlying derivative cashflows and the collateral. 4

22 Aligning collateral and swap cashflows • Consider a swap with a single cashflow 22 Aligning collateral and swap cashflows • Consider a swap with a single cashflow of $10 in one year. . . PV = FV Discount rate i = OIS FV = $10 PV = $9 (1+i)n Today + 1 Year Time • Under the SCSA collateral is required to cover the mark-to-market value of the swap, so $9 of collateral is delivered today. • Under the SCSA collateral must be cash in the currency of the swap, and cash collateral earns interest at the OIS rate. • Therefore $9 of collateral delivered today earns interest of $1 over the next year. When it is returned at the end of the swap, the collateral plus interest will precisely cover the $10 cashflow due with no currency risk and no basis risk. • If properly aligned, the collateral funds the future swap cashflow. 5

24 Issue 3 - Impediments to risk transfer • There is an active market 24 Issue 3 - Impediments to risk transfer • There is an active market in derivative novation and assignment. In addition, regulators and market participants are encouraging the transfer of bilateral risk to CCPs where possible. • The LIBOR-OIS discounting issue discussed earlier makes these risk transfers more difficult, because of the differences in choice of underlying curve. • The collateral-related effects render these risk transfers even more difficult, since CSA terms are not consistent across the market, and the two parties to a given CSA may factor the collateral terms into pricing differently (if at all). 7

25 Issue 4 - Lack of standardization • The inherent flexibility of the CSA 25 Issue 4 - Lack of standardization • The inherent flexibility of the CSA is a major positive in that the vast majority of the exceedingly wide universe of derivatives executed with the entire spectrum of credit quality counterparties can be collateralized under a CSA. • However, regulatory perception is that not all variations under the CSA are warranted; or put another way, standardizing some terms to reduce the number of variations would not harm the market. • Focus on eligible collateral, Thresholds, MTAs and IA. • Operational procedures and market standards are in fact very consistent across market participants. 8

53 Integration into treasury management • Balance sheet obligations for the individual DCC balances 53 Integration into treasury management • Balance sheet obligations for the individual DCC balances need to be established, so that correct accruals can occur. • The actual physical movement of USD 140, 072, 400 also needs to be addressed. It needs to be funded by Party Y and invested by Party X. • It must therefore be integrated into the treasury management processes at the two firms. • The receiver of the physical movement will need to consider: § Converting the received transport currency amount into the relevant DCC silo balances - a direct hedge of the funding risk. § Factor the received transport currency amount into the general treasury funding flows for the day - a portfolio hedge of the funding risk. § Leave the collateral in the transport currency and do not hedge. • We do not recommend the last option. 14

57 Cross Currency Basis • Cross-currency basis refers to the spread adjustment required on 57 Cross Currency Basis • Cross-currency basis refers to the spread adjustment required on one leg of a Libor vs. floating cross-currency swap in order to make the swap price at par. • This basis is observable in the market (see Bloomberg or Reuters swap rate screens). • There is a no-arbitrage relation between FX forwards, interest rate swap levels, and crosscurrency basis. • Two streams of par cashflows in different currencies may have a zero present value when considered each in isolation, but when linked via a transaction the net value is non-zero; the difference is the cross-currency basis and reflects the differences in perceived credit risk and market access between the parties funding in the two currencies. • Cross-currency basis may be positive or negative. • The ISA methodology implicitly includes the cross-currency bases for all silos. • One can consider the $234 cross-currency basis as the “cost” of using net settlement (the ISA methodology) to eliminate Herstatt risk and compare it to the cost of constructing alternative methods of managing this risk (eg building a PVP platform). 18

61 Advantages of the SCSA • Removes collateral “switch options” • Restricts variation margin 61 Advantages of the SCSA • Removes collateral “switch options” • Restricts variation margin to cash only, so that collateral interest accruals will approximate the funding cost of the underlying cashflows. § Further limits this to cash for which a liquid OIS market exists. § Will be extensible as other OIS markets develop liquidity, promoting the growth of liquid OIS markets. • Simplifies calculations by standardizing terms. • Eliminates structural CSA differences, thus: § Trade valuation more consistent and transparent. § Making novation, assignment and risk transfer to CCPs easier. § Reducing one cause of margin disputes. 20
