1 International Financial Reporting Standards The views expressed in this presentation are those of the presenter, not necessarily those of the IASB or IFRS Foundation Accounting for Dynamic Risk Management: a Portfolio Revaluation Approach to Macro Hedging 2014 © 2014 IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org

2 The IASB is exploring an accounting approach to better reflect dynamic risk management (DRM) activities in entities’ financial statements. The Discussion Paper (DP) uses dynamic interest rate risk management by banks for illustrative purposes. However, the approach considered in the DP is intended to be applicable to other risks (for example, commodity price risk and FX risk).

3 DRM is a continuous process. Major characteristics of dynamic DRM include: DRM is undertaken for open portfolio(s), to which new exposures are frequently added and in which existing exposures mature. As the risk profile of the open portfolio(s) changes, DRM is updated frequently in reaction to the changed net risk position.

4 Current hedge accounting requirements are often difficult to apply to DRM because: One-to-one linkage between what is being hedged and the hedging derivative; Can only indirectly accommodate DRM on a net basis through gross designation; Can only accommodate open portfolios by treating them as a series of closed portfolios with short lives; Allows for a degree of behaviouralisation of exposures but this is limited.

5 Dynamic interest rate risk management in banks 5 The purpose of dynamic RM is usually to manage Net Interest Income

6 DRM is a continuous process. It is undertaken for open portfolio(s), to which new exposures are frequently added and in which existing exposures mature. As the risk profile of the open portfolio(s) changes, DRM is updated frequently in reaction to the changed net risk position. Current hedge accounting requirements are often difficult to apply to DRM. Question 1—Assessing the need for an approach Do you think there is a need for a specific accounting approach to represent DRM in entities’ financial statements? Why or why not?

7 The Portfolio Revaluation Approach (PRA) © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 7 Exposures within open portfolios are revalued with respect to the managed risk (for example, interest rate risk). Not a full fair value model.

8 The net effect between the revaluation adjustment of the managed exposures and the fair value changes of the risk management instruments (for example, interest rate swaps) is reflected in profit or loss.

9 Expected improvements with the PRA © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 9 enhances information about DRM; reduces operational complexities such as tracking and amortisations; captures the dynamic nature of risk management on a net basis; considers behavioural factors; considers different types of risks managed in open portfolios.

10 Behaviouralisation (‘core’ demand deposits) 10 Core demand deposits At a portfolio level, the ‘sticky’ nature of demand deposits leads to the identification of a stable portion in the amount outstanding. These core demand deposits are deemed to be fixed rate deposits with longer maturities for risk management purposes (behaviouralisation). time amount outstanding

11 Behaviouralisation and revaluation of the managed exposures © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 11 Question 2—Behaviouralisation For the purposes of applying the PRA, should the cash flows be based on a behaviouralised rather than on a contractual basis, when the risk is managed on a behaviouralised basis? Question 3—Core demand deposits Do you think that core demand should be included in the managed portfolio on a behaviouralised basis when applying the PRA if that is how an entity would consider them for DRM purposes? Question 4 —Revaluation of the managed exposures Do you think that the revaluation calculations provide a faithful representation of DRM? Why or why not?

Why or why not? Question 6—EMB Do you think that EMB should be included in the PRA if it is considered by an entity as part of its DRM? Why or why not?

14  Business and Risk Management Structure  Division of responsibilities between Business Unit (BU) and ALM (Asset Liability Management): BU: Focus on customer margin ALM: Interest rate margin management possibly dynamically  Made operational through Transfer Pricing BUs raise funds from the ALM for their business activities through transfer pricing (TP) transactions. ALM aggregates the risk centrally for risk management using such TP transactions. Transfer pricing—Overview © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 14

15  Two important features of the PRA in identifying managed risk:  To capture dynamic interest rate RM based on funding index at the ALM  To provide operational feasibility Identification of the managed risk in the PRA © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 15 Revaluation with respect to ‘funding index’ Transfer Pricing (TP) transactions as a practical expedient

16 Dynamic interest rate RM with respect to funding index using TP transactions © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 16 Internal pricing decision Market pricing index (for example, base rates) 4.1% Customer- specific margin 3% Market funding index (for example, 3-month LIBOR curve) 3.8% External funding spread 0.2% 2.6% margin earned by business unit Internal funding spread 0.5% 0.5% margin earned by ALM Business unit makes a fixed interest rate customer loan at 7.1% ALM funds customer loan at internal fixed interest rate of 4.5% (the transfer rate) 3.1% margin earned overall by bank External pricing decision 4.5% transfer rate 7.1% customer interest rate

17  Suppose a bank has external fixed interest rate loans with a 7.1% contractual interest rate. The BU raises funds from the ALM at 4.5%. This means 2.6% is a customer margin at the BU.  The ALM raises funds that are necessary for the BU based on funding index, for instance the 3-month LIBOR curve, from BUs or through the market.  Through this process, the ALM manages NII.  The basic idea of the PRA is: use CFs that the BU funded from the ALM (4.5% in the example above) as a numerator; and revalue the CFs with respect to the funding index. PRA with respect to funding index (1) © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 17

18  At Day 1: 4.5% funding transactions are identified as CFs (numerator). The above CFs are discounted at 4.5%. No Day 1 profit or loss.  Revaluations in subsequent periods Suppose funding index increases to 5%. Then 4.5% CFs are discounted by a 5% discount rate. Consequently, revaluation adjustment (loss in the above example) is recognised. PRA with respect to funding index (2) © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 18

19  IFRS 9 hedge accounting requires that any hedged risk component is ‘separately identifiable and reliably measureable’. -- If PRA is applied with respect to funding index, it is likely some eligibility criteria for the identification of the managed risks would need to be considered.  It is not always possible to identify a ‘known’ funding source for particular exposures. -- Banks may use more than one funding indexes, say 1 ‐ month LIBOR curve and 3-month LIBOR curve. -- Banks do not necessarily match up particular assets as being funded by particular liabilities.

20 The DP’s preliminary views are that transfer pricing transactions can be considered for the purpose of identifying the level of the managed risk (numerator of the revaluation calculation) and the revaluation of the latter (denominator of the revaluation calculation). Transfer pricing accommodates behaviouralisation (eg prepayable mortgages and core demand deposits). Accordingly, revaluing the exposures using transfer pricing would incorporate the behaviouralised risk profile embedded in the exposures. For these reasons, the DP presents the use of transfer pricing transactions as providing operational feasibility to the PRA. Transfer pricing transactions 20 Question 7—Transfer pricing transactions Do you think that transfer pricing transactions would provide a good representation of the managed risk in the managed portfolio for the purposes of applying the PRA? To what extent do you think that risk transferred to ALM via transfer pricing is representative of the risk that exists in the managed portfolio?

21 The scope has significant implications for the information provided to users of financial statements and on how operationally feasible the application of the PRA will be for an entity. The DP considers two scope alternatives: –Focus on dynamic risk management –Focus on risk mitigation (sub-portfolio approach, proportional approach) Scope of the application of the PRA 21

The DP considers two scope alternatives: –Focus on dynamic risk management –Focus on risk mitigation (sub-portfolio approach, proportional approach) Scope of the application of the PRA 23 Question 8—Scope of the application of the PRA Do you think that the PRA should be applied to all managed portfolios included in an entity’s DRM or should it be restricted to circumstances in which an entity has undertaken risk mitigation through hedging? Why or why not? If you do not agree with either of these alternatives, what do you suggest, and why?

27 Under the alternative approach, the net effect of the revaluation of the future cash flows of the managed portfolios and the changes in the FV of risk management instruments (eg interest rate swaps) is recognised in OCI rather than in P/L. However, there are important conceptual and practical issues:  It breaks an assumption in the DP that all risk management instruments are measured at FVTPL;  Gross presentation of internal derivatives no longer nets to zero in P/L;  Recycling from OCI to P/L. Alternative approach–PRA through OCI © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 27

28 Alternative approach–PRA through OCI 28 Question 10—PRA through OCI Do you think that an approach incorporating the use of OCI should be considered? Why or why not? If you think the use of OCI should be incorporated in the PRA, how could the conceptual and practical difficulties identified with this alternative approach be overcome?

29 Compared to existing accounting, does the information that would result from the PRA give you better information about an entity’s DRM activities? If no, why not? What other information might you need or want to know? Questions © IFRS Foundation. 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK. www.ifrs.org 29
