Session Objectives
•
Identify derivatives as redefined by FAS 133
•
Explain valuing freestanding and embedded derivatives
3
Derivative Instruments as Redefined by FAS 133
•
Key Characteristics
– Underlying and notional amount/payment provisions
– Little or no initial net investment
– Net settlement
4
Key Characteristics:
Underlying and notional amount/payment provisions
Change in Underlying
X
Notional Amount/Payment
Provisions
=
Settlement
Amount
Settlement Amount
Equals item market price :
–
–
–
–
Stock price
Commodity price
Foreign currency
Interest rate
These are:
– Basis for computation
– Number of shares, principal amount,
units, barrels, kilowatts, etc.
– Payment provisions specify a fixed or
determinable amount based on the
behavior of the derivative:
• Knock-in and Knock-out options
5
Key Characteristic:
Little or No Initial Net Investment
•
Underlying ownership is NOT necessary to participate in risks
and rewards
•
Option premium or forward discount may require a small
payment
6
Key Characteristic:
Net Settlement
This consists of:
•
Explicit or implicit cash settlement provision:
– Net settlements under an interest rate swap
•
A “Market mechanism” that covers rights and obligations:
– Exchange-traded futures contract
– Broker Market
•
Delivery of item readily convertible to cash:
– Forward contract to deliver a marketable equity security
7
Items Excluded from FAS 133 Derivatives
Based on Paragraph 10 and various FASB Staff Interpretations, the
following are specifically excluded from being treated as FAS 133
Derivatives:
1) “Regular-way” security trades
– Delivery of a security within 3-day settlement period set by the market
_ When-issued, and TBA securities if:
• No other way to purchase or sell
• Will settle within shortest period for security
2) Normal Purchases and Sales
– Proposed Amendment will make this exception available to most
commodity contracts where physical delivery is probable even if contract
can be net cash settlement
8
Items Excluded from FAS 133 Derivatives (cont.)
3) Certain insurance contracts
– Where underlying is an identifiable insurable event (other than a price
change) such as:
• Traditional life
• Traditional property and casualty
4) Certain financial guarantee contracts
– Where beneficiary must hold guaranteed asset for life of contract (FASB
C7)
– Where payments reimburse loss incurred on default (NOT changes on
creditworthiness)
9
5) Contracts not traded on an exchange with underlyings based on:
– Climatic or geological variables
– The price or value of nonfinancial assets or obligations
– Specified sales revenues or volumes of sales
6) Derivatives that defeat sale accounting
– Call on financial assets in a secured borrowing
– Residual value guarantee in sale of assets subject to an operating lease
10
7) When classification and underlying is the equity of the issuer as
in:
– Certain EITF 96-13 contracts
– Stock compensation
– Contingent consideration
11
Embedded Derivatives - Definitions
Hybrid Contract:
Contracts that contain derivative-like features but that are not
derivatives themselves.
• Embedded Features:
 Features in a Hybrid Contract affecting cash flows or value of other exchanges similar to
that of a derivative
• Host Contract:
– What would be left if the Embedded Features were not in the Hybrid Contract
12
Examples of Embedded Derivatives
•
Callable debt
– Call on interest rates
•
Convertible debt held as investment
– Equity option
•
Commodity or S&P linked notes issued or held
– Commodity or S&P option or forward
•
Indexed amortizing notes
– Conditional prepayment options based on specific interest rate index
•
Levered inverse floaters
– Leveraged embedded interest rate swaps
13
Accounting for Embedded Derivatives:
Is Bifurcation Required?
Bifurcation: To B or Not to B?
Yes
No
“Clearly
and closely
related”?
Yes
No
Feature is
a derivative?
No
Stop. Do not bifurcate.
14
Yes
Bifurcate
Hybrid at
FV through
earnings?
Accounting for Embedded Derivatives
Measuring the Embedded Derivative
•
Only one derivative is bifurcated (simple or compound)
•
Determine fair value of embedded derivative, remaining carrying
amount of hybrid allocated to host contract
•
If embedded forward, should be bifurcated so that it has zero
fair value at bifurcation (may need to recharacterize terms)
•
If embedded option, bifurcate according to stated terms
15
The FASB’s “Natural State” of Derivatives
•
Derivatives are assets or liabilities reported at fair value
•
Changes in fair value are reported currently in earnings
Only departure from this accounting is when all hedge accounting criteria are
met...

Fair Value Hedges (cont.)
Examples:

•
Purchased put to hedge equity price risk on available for sale
equity security
•
FX hedge of firm commitment to buy equipment from foreign
manufacturer

probable, recognize immediately in earnings.

Cash Flow Hedges (cont.)
Examples:
•
Hedge of probable issuance of fixed rate debt
•
Swapping floating rate debt to fixed
•
Hedging FX risk in foreign sales or purchases
•
Hedging floating rate debt with a purchased cap
•
Hedging commodity risk in future inventory purchase with
futures

Valuation of Free-Standing
and Embedded Derivatives
Jitendra D. Sharma
(May 25, 2000)
Getting to Valuation
•
Embedded Derivatives and Bifurcation
– Core element of FAS 133
– Important for Hedging and Effectiveness exercises
•
Need to Answer Whether Derivative is Free-standing or
Embedded
– If free-standing, proceed to valuation
– If embedded, proceed to bifurcation decision
25
Embedded Derivatives -The Bifurcation Decision in Three Steps
Yes
No
“Clearly
and closely
related”?
Yes
No

a derivative?
No
Stop. Do not bifurcate.
26
Yes
Bifurcate
Hybrid at
FV through
earnings?
Embedded Derivatives -Bifurcating a Hybrid Contract
“(1) - (2) = (3)”
(1) Hybrid Contract
– Contracts that contain derivative-like features but that are not derivatives
themselves
(2) Embedded Features
– Features in a Hybrid Contract affecting cash flows or value of other
exchanges similar to that of a derivative
(3) Host Contract
– What would be left if the Embedded Features were not in the Hybrid
Contract
27
Embedded Derivatives –
Bifurcation Example 1
•
Callable bond -- Issuer can repurchase the bond
– Predetermined price
– At some time in the future
– Holder of bond has sold call option to the issuer
•
Hybrid Contract: Callable Debt
themselves
•
Embedded Features: Call Option on Interest Rates
•
Host Contract: Noncallable Debt
Contract
28
Bifurcation Example 1, continued
•
Hybrid Contract: Callable Debt
– Widely Traded -- Multiple price sources
– Illiquid -- Value cash flows, discounted at credit-specific discount curve
•
Embedded Features: Call Option on Interest Rates
– Widely Traded -- Option pricing models
– Illiquid -- Proxy valuation using static models
•
Host Contract: Noncallable Debt
– Comparable debt -- similar amount, terms and credit rating
29
Bifurcation Example 2
•
Convertible bond -- Holder has right to exchange debt for equity
–
–
–
–
Predetermined exchange ratio
At certain time(s) in the future
The convertible bond is often callable by the issuer
Call provision allows issuer to “force” conversion into equity at earlier time
than holders may otherwise choose
– If interest rates are constant and call provisions are ignored, then
• Convertible debt is similar to straight debt plus call warrants
•
Hybrid Contract: Convertible Debt
themselves
•
Embedded Features: Call Option on Equity
•
Host Contract: Plain Vanilla Debt

Broker Quotations Versus Modeling
•
Depends on Nature of Derivative
– Many Futures, Options and Options on Futures are market-quoted
•
Internal Models
– Greater control and validation of external quotes
– Introduces model risk
– Should be independently validated, prior to use
•
Front Office versus Independent Risk Management
– Valuation independence (regulators require)
– Check and balance system
32
Liquidity and Blockage
•
Lack of Market Liquidity
– e.g. Only one broker or market maker for instrument
– e.g. Little or no demand for instrument
•
Position Blockage
– Size of position (say, you hold 80% of outstanding)
– May move the market substantially upon liquidation
– FAS 133 does not allow adjustments for blockage
Either condition may result in the conclusion that the instrument
is NOT a derivative
33
Valuing Complex or Privately Placed Derivatives
•
Use agreed-upon terms
– e.g. ISDA Master Agreement
•
Can use standard models or specific software
– Wide range available (Microsoft Excel add-ins to dedicated systems)
•
Isolate risks being hedged
– If hedging, must isolate specific risk(s) being hedged
•
Measuring correlation
– Important to testing hedge effectiveness
– Statistical correlation or dollar offset methods
