  • 8.Forward agreements: A forward agreement is a customised, bilateral agreement to exchange an asset or cash flows at a specified future settlement date at a forward price agreed on the trade date. One party to the forward is the buyer (long), who agrees to pay the forward price on the settlement date; the other is the seller (short), who agrees to receive the forward price. Entering into a forward contract typically does not require the payment of a fee. The exposure of the AIF is the market value of the equivalent underlying asset. This may be replaced by the notional value of the contract where this is more conservative.
  • 9.Options: An option is an agreement that gives the buyer, who pays a fee (premium), the right — but not the obligation — to buy or sell a specified amount of an underlying asset at an agreed price (strike or exercise price) on or until the expiration of the contract (expiry). A call option is an option to buy, and a put option an option to sell. The bounds of the exposure of the fund will be on the one side a potential unlimited exposure and on the other side an exposure that is limited to the higher of the premium paid or the market value of that option. The exposure between these two bounds is determined as the delta (an options delta measures the sensitivity of an option’s price solely to a change in the price of the underlying asset) adjusted equivalent of the underlying position. The same approach must be adopted for embedded derivatives, e.g. in structured products. The structure should be broken down into its component parts and the effect of layers of derivative exposures must be adequately captured.
  • 10.Repurchase agreements: The repurchase agreement normally occurs where an AIF ‘sells’ securities to a reverse-repo counterparty and agrees to buy them back at an agreed price in the future. The AIF will incur a financing cost from engaging in this transaction and will therefore need to re-invest the cash proceeds (effectively cash collateral) in order to generate a return greater than the financing cost incurred. This reinvestment of ‘cash collateral’ means that incremental market risk will be carried by the AIF and consequently must be taken into account in the global exposure calculation. The economic risks and rewards of the ‘sold’ securities remain with the AIF. Also, a repo transaction will almost always give rise to leverage as the cash collateral will be reinvested. In the event that non-cash collateral is received as part of the transaction and this collateral is further used as part of another repo, or stock-loan agreement, the full market value of the collateral must be included in the global exposure amount. The exposure of the AIF is increased by the reinvested part of the cash collateral.
  • 11.Reverse repurchase agreements: This transaction occurs where an AIF ‘purchases’ securities from a repo counterparty and agrees to sell them back at an agreed price in the future. AIFs normally engage in these transactions to generate a low-risk money-market type return, and the ‘purchased’ securities act as collateral. Therefore no global exposure is generated; nor does the AIF take on the risks and rewards of the ‘purchased’ securities, i.e. there is no incremental market risk. However, it is possible for the ‘purchased’ securities to be further used as part of a repo or security-loan transaction, as described above, and in that case the full market value of the securities must be included in the global exposure amount. The economic risks and rewards of the purchased securities remain with the counterparty and therefore this does not increase the exposure of the AIF.
  • 12.Securities lending arrangements: An AIF engaging in a securities lending transaction will lend a security to a security-borrowing counterparty (who will normally borrow the security to cover a physical short sale transaction) for an agreed fee. The security borrower will deliver either cash or non-cash collateral to the AIF. Only where cash collateral is reinvested in instruments other than those defined in Article 7 point (a) will global exposure be created. If the non-cash collateral is further used as part of a repo or another security lending transaction, the full market value of the securities must be included in the global exposure amount as described above. Exposure is created to the extent that the cash collateral has been reinvested.
  • 13.Securities borrowing arrangements: An AIF engaging in the borrowing of securities will borrow a security from a security-lending counterparty for an agreed fee. The AIF will then sell the security in the market. The AIF is now short that security. To the extent that the cash proceeds from the sale are reinvested this will also increase the exposure of the AIF. Exposure is the market value of the shorted securities; additional exposure is created to the extent that the cash received is reinvested.
  • 14.Credit default swaps: A credit default swap (CDS) is a credit derivative agreement that gives the buyer protection, usually the full recovery, in case the reference entity defaults or suffers a credit event. In return the seller of the CDS receives from the buyer a regular fee, called the spread. For the protection seller, the exposure is the higher of the market value of the underlying reference assets or the notional value of the credit default swap. For the protection buyer, the exposure is the market value of the underlying reference asset.

ANNEX II

Conversion methodologies for derivative instruments

  • 1.The following conversion methods shall be applied to the non-exhaustive list below of standard derivatives:
  • (a) Futures — Bond future : Number of contracts * notional contract size * market price of the cheapest-to-deliver reference bond — Interest rate future : Number of contracts * notional contract size — Currency future : Number of contracts * notional contract size — Equity future : Number of contracts * notional contract size * market price of underlying equity share — Index futures : Number of contracts * notional contract size * index level
  • (b) Plain vanilla options (bought/sold puts and calls) — Plain vanilla bond option : Notional contract value * market value of underlying reference bond * delta — Plain vanilla equity option : Number of contracts * notional contract size* market value of underlying equity share * delta — Plain vanilla interest rate option : Notional contract value * delta — Plain vanilla currency option : Notional contract value of currency leg(s) * delta — Plain vanilla index options : Number of contracts * notional contract size * index level * delta — Plain vanilla options on futures : Number of contracts * notional contract size * market value of underlying asset * delta — Plain vanilla swaptions : Reference swap commitment conversion amount * delta — Warrants and rights : Number of shares/bonds * market value of underlying referenced instrument * delta
  • (c) Swaps — Plain vanilla fixed/floating rate interest rate and inflation swaps : notional contract value — Currency swaps : Notional value of currency leg(s) — Cross currency interest rate swaps : Notional value of currency leg(s) — Basic total return swap : Underlying market value of reference asset(s) — Non-basic total return swap : Cumulative underlying market value of both legs of the TRS — Single name credit default swap : Protection seller — The higher of the market value of the underlying reference asset or the notional value of the Credit Default Swap. Protection buyer — Market value of the underlying reference asset — Contract for differences : Number of shares/bonds * market value of underlying referenced instrument
  • (d) Forwards — FX forward : notional value of currency leg(s) — Forward rate agreement : notional value
  • (e) Leveraged exposure to indices with embedded leverage A derivative providing leveraged exposure to an underlying index, or indices that embed leveraged exposure to their portfolio, must apply the standard applicable commitment approach to the assets in question.
  • 2.The following conversion methods shall be applied to the non-exhaustive list below of financial instruments which embed derivatives:
  • — Convertible bonds : Number of referenced shares * market value of underlying referenced shares * delta
  • — Credit linked notes : Market value of underlying reference asset(s)
  • — Partly paid securities : Number of shares/bonds * market value of underlying referenced instruments
  • — Warrants and rights : Number of shares/bonds * market value of underlying referenced instrument * delta
  • 3.List of examples of non-standard derivatives with the related commitment methodology being used:
  • — Variance swaps: Variance swaps are contracts that allow investors to gain exposure to the variance (squared volatility) of an underlying asset and, in particular, to trade future realised (or historical) volatility against current implied volatility. According to market practice, the strike and the variance notional are expressed in terms of volatility. For the variance notional, this gives: Image omitted; see official source The vega notional provides a theoretical measure of the profit or loss resulting from a 1 % change in volatility. As realised volatility cannot be less than zero, a long swap position has a known maximum loss. The maximum loss on a short swap is often limited by the inclusion of a cap on volatility. However without a cap, a short swap’s potential losses are unlimited. The conversion methodology to be used for a given contract at time t is: Variance notional * (current) variancet (without volatility cap) Variance notional * min [(current) variancet volatility cap2] (with volatility cap) whereby: (current) variancet is a function of the squared realised and implied volatility, more precisely: Image omitted; see official source
  • — Volatility swaps By analogy with the variance swaps, the following conversion formulae should be applied to volatility swaps: — Vega notional * (current) volatilityt (without volatility cap) — Vega notional * min [(current) volatilityt; volatility cap] (with volatility cap) whereby the (current) volatility t is a function of the realised and implied volatility.
  • 4.Barrier (knock-in knock-out) options
  • Number of contracts * notional contract size * market value of underlying equity share * delta

ANNEX III

Duration netting rules

  • 1.An interest rate derivative shall be converted into its equivalent underlying asset position in accordance with the following methodology:
  • The equivalent underlying asset position of each interest rate derivative instrument shall be calculated as its duration divided by the target duration of the AIF and multiplied by the equivalent underlying asset position:

Image omitted; see official source

  • where:
  • — duration FDI is the duration (sensitivity of the market value of the financial derivative instrument to interest rate movements) of the interest rate derivative instrument,
  • — duration target is in line with the investment strategy, the directional positions and the expected level of risk at any time and will be regularised otherwise. It is also in line with the portfolio duration under normal market conditions,
  • — CVderivative is the converted value of the derivative position as defined by the Annex II.
  • 2.The equivalent underlying asset positions calculated in accordance with to paragraph 1 shall be netted as follows:
  • (a) Each interest rate derivative instrument shall be allocated to the appropriate maturity range of the following maturity-based ladder: Maturities ranges
    1. 0-2 years
    1. 2-7 years
    1. 7-15 years
    1. 15 years

  • (b) The long and short equivalent underlying asset positions shall be netted within each maturity range. The amount of the former which is netted with the latter is the netted amount for that maturity range.
  • (c) Starting with the shortest maturity range, the netted amounts between two adjoining maturity ranges shall be calculated by netting the amount of the remaining unnetted long (or short) position in the maturity range (i) with the amount of the remaining unnetted short (long) position in the maturity range (i + 1).
  • (d) Starting with the shortest maturity range, the netted amounts between two remote maturity ranges separated by another one shall be calculated by netting the amount of the remaining unnetted long (or short) position in the maturity range (i) with the amount of the remaining unnetted short (long) position in the maturity range (i + 2).
  • (e) The netted amount shall be calculated between the remaining unnetted long and short positions of the two most remote maturity ranges.
  • 3.The AIF shall calculate its exposures as the sum of absolute values:
  • — 0 % of the netted amount for each maturity range,
  • — 40 % of the netted amounts between two adjoining maturity ranges (i) and (i + 1),
  • — 75 % of the netted amounts between two remote maturity ranges separated by another one, meaning maturity ranges (i) and (i + 2),
  • — 100 % of the netted amounts between the two most remote maturity ranges, and
  • — 100 % of the remaining unnetted positions.
