The issue and case for change Michael Jones Market Services Division
...secured flows now dwarf unsecured Average daily turnover in sterling money market (Nov 2012)
The Bank’s front office interests • Broad interest in stability of the market: key transmission channel for monetary policy • DBV central to Bank’s own operations: • Peak daily value during crisis = £85bn • From July 2011, Bank counterparties have had option of using Term DBV in Operations... • ...and we made it clear that we were ‘minded to discontinue use of Rolling Overnight DBV’ • MMLG oversight
Current DBV mechanism • The DBV mechanism in CREST is central to GC collateral delivery in the UK market • Current overnight DBV model is tried-and-tested • low cost easy way of delivering market-defined baskets of GC • no substitutions or mark-to-market needed because collateral is returned every morning • reliable • But it masks hidden issues • an inefficient and risky churn of daily return and reissue • dependency on provision of central bank liquidity through auto collateralised repo to fund intraday positions
Risks • In the event of a counterparty or system-wide outage intraday between morning unwind and afternoon re-input: • DBV counterparties would be left holding the ‘wrong’ asset • counterparties would be required to manage liquidity dislocation • DBV counterparties and their CREST settlement banks would be left with credit exposures • the Bank would be left with intra-day liquidity extension to settlement banks that might need to be converted into overnight facilities • The values are substantial
11 November 2011 • Severe SWIFT outage on 11 November 2011 meant many of the day’s DBVs (including LCH’s) could not be submitted until very late in the day • DBV value input after the outage was resolved was £159bn • Outstanding IDL (a large proportion of which is normally repaid automatically in afternoon DBVs) was at £82bn at the point of failure
The challenge • The Bank has been exercised by the risks for many years • Objective is to align the settlement arrangements with the underlying economic terms of the repo • not to change the fundamental form of the trade • The challenge is to reduce risks while retaining the benefits of the DBV basket collateral mechanism. • The Term DBV product in CREST offers a solution
Benefits • From reduction in daily cash and collateral settlement flow • in aggregate, less credit needed for settlement • reduced position management ahead of DBV settlement window • reduced reliance on central bank liquidity provision • Tail risk • reduced risk from operational interruption • only overnight and new business exposed to intraday interruption • reduced potential dislocation of liquidity
MMLG Cleared TDBV Sub-Group Michael Jones Market Services Division
Genesis • Recognition in the market of the issue – LMMA catalyst • Complex change – need for a group to oversee the work • MMLG Sub-group formed includes representatives from EUI, CREST, LMMA, DMO, ISLA, Bank of England, major repo trading banks • Focus today is LCH introduction of a cleared Term GC product • TDBV could not gain sufficient traction without being cleared through LCH.C which accounts for ~40% of DBV value settled • But also keen to encourage ‘bi-lateral’ use of TDBV
Aims and Progress • End objective is a smooth market adoption of a cleared TDBV product that is fit for purpose • Steering group facilitates discussion and resolution of key issues and coordinates the delivery process and adoption activity • Four key strands of work • Product design – now complete and delivery being monitored • Market ‘good practice’ – close to final • Market adoption – now the focus • Wider adoption of TDBV – previous discussion with ISLA
What next? • IT delivery and testing • Monitoring of market preparedness • Agreement of migration approach • Communications with market • Delivery expected in Q3 2014 • Explore bi-lateral use further
Term DBVISLA Operations Group Annual Conference25 October 2013
Term DBV - introduction • Term DBV introduced in June 2011 • Using standard DBV components • Using an agreed ‘basket’ of securities • 70 minute window post DVP settlement (3pm) • Key requirements: • Reduce systemic risk(associated with large intraday SCR generation) • Reduce operational risk • Minimise intraday credit requirements • Minimise intraday cash exposure
Key Features • Input and selection • Uses existing DBV algorithm (standard baskets) • Return date (1 day – 2 years) • Mark to Market • Overnight valuation – for next day settlement • Substitutions (Eligibility & Giver Recall) • Automatic recall based on Corporate Action or settlement need • Delivery versus delivery • Adjustments • Ability to adjust DBV to match collateral requirements • Interest Calculation • Interest accrued daily for length of term (TDI)
Cleared Term DBV roll out • Final timetable to be confirmed • CREST system changes planned for March 2014 followed by LCH.C in the second half of 2014 • Migration: • LCH.C migration plans – roll off use of Sterling GC 90 days after launch of Term Sterling GC • EUI enhancements – in addition to changes to support LCH.C • Facilitate Substitutions during DBV settlement • Continuous real-time substitutions and mark to markets • DVP available alongside DBV settlement – major architectural change • Support negative interest rates (hopefully never used for Sterling)
Bilateral Term DBVs • Supports equity and fixed income • Intraday funding requirement removed (non SCR securities) • Remain fully collateralised for duration of repo • No intraday cash exposure • Concentration limits • Up to 99 securities per delivery • Term 1 day – replicates overnight • Overnight DBV – future support ?
