Read more…We have an interesting question from one of our members. "We usually perform OTC FX transactions with clients backed-to-back on the market (with Banks). Now we are going to perform a FX swap (i.e. Spot + forward) JPY/EUR for the Bank account for 1 week at the longest. The purpose is to get EUR place @ CB for LCR compliance purpose (no trading purposes). Bank's Management think that this should be considered as a trading position and therefore be classified within the Bank's trading book.…

The Russians fear the effects of yet another powerful hit on their economy, Venezuela seems to be considering default and the Americans are weary of the consequences for its young and emerging shale oil industry. And then you have the Middle East, where the smallest match is enough to ignite the largest fire. But are these worries really justified or…

Hi Michael,
Thank you.
Did they outline any pain points they are experiencing implementing ERM strategy in order of importance?
From a high level overview, all of the institutions agreed that the regulatory agencies are still trying to get a handle on the latest legislation and this was echoed by a senior level person from the FDIC - "that one year after Dodd Frank, the rules were still 'ripening'." Especially in regards to an institution having a "Living Will." More oversight and authority has been given to the FDIC and the creation of the Office of Complex Financial Institutions has bolstered the oversight with banks "To Big To Fail." The transparency of these banks is becoming much improved. The far reaching tentacles of Lehman Brothers non-banking divisions drove it into bankruptcy and lack of transparency has had a far reaching effect. Much more emphasis is being placed on a bank's insolvency/distress plan and understanding the legal entity.
The regulators have begun taking a much more consultative approach and all the institutions polled said that having these ongoing communications with their prospective regulators has helped with ERM. The carrot and the stick approach is being replaced by open ended discussions, whereby the bank and regulators really have the ability to explain and understand the processes put in place.
Dear Oscar . . . thanks so much for the question and a promotion to Dr. My Grandmother will be very proud of me. :) This question covers a little slice of risk that is an important part of ERM - The conference really took a top down approach, so the question was over the heads of these enterprise risk planners. I think we should throw it out to the GlobalRisk Community for their feedback! Cheers - Mr. (definitely not Dr.) Wein

Hi Michael,
My questions are
1) how are they building out this system?
a) building in house
b) buying off the self
c) combination of a & b
2) are there sufficient talent in house to model, to build, and to integrate?
3) will hosted/managed service considered due to cost and if they do not have the expertise in house?
4) is end of day sufficient or due to dynamic of the market, strive towards real time as possible? If'yes', what is the definition of real time? microseconds?
Thank you.
A) What current "published studies" have there been in "Hazard Chain Mismanagement" - as opposed to "Value Chain Management" and ...
B) Can an intelligent argument refute the following risk management premise: All potential time-space fields of risk are i) seeded, ii) self-amplified and iii) sustained by the "Lack of timely information acted on."
Thanks
What would be the downside of electronically guaranteeing the reserves of the World Bank for a period of time--a year, for example. This is what is being done with the financial institutions in the United States. If there is a crisis and financial company reserves fall, the treasury replaces them with computer-generated dollars. This is based upon the very simple concept that whatever disappears into the void should be retrievable from the void. This remedy has not existed heretofore in such a secure form and may represent a quantum leap in the stabilizing of the world economy.
Thank you

Hi,
I'd ask about systemic risks:
What are the best practices for including systemic risks (such as systemic liquidity risk, risks arising from system's leverage etc) into ERM?
Which systemic risks have been identified?
How they are being measured/monitored?
How systemic risks are taken into account e.g. in credit decisions and in pricing decisions?
Assessments to the current levels of systemic risks?
