Meaning of Repo


It is a transaction in which two parties agree to sell
and repurchase the same security. Under such an
agreement the seller sells specified securities with an
agreement to repurchase the same at a mutually
decided future date and a price
The Repo/Reverse Repo transaction can only be done
at Mumbai between parties approved by RBI and in
securities as approved by RBI (Treasury Bills,
Central/State Govt securities).
Repo

Uses of Repo
It helps banks to invest surplus cash
It helps investor achieve money market returns with
sovereign risk.
It helps borrower to raise funds at better rates
An SLR surplus and CRR deficit bank can use the
Repo deals as a convenient way of adjusting
SLR/CRR positions simultaneously.
RBI uses Repo and Reverse repo as instruments for
liquidity adjustment in the system
Coupon rate and Yield
The difference between coupon rate and yield
arises because the market price of a security
might be different from the face value of the
security. Since coupon payments are calculated
on the face value, the coupon rate is different
from the implied yield.
Example








10% Aug 2015 10 year Govt Bond
Face Value RS.1000
Market Value Rs.1200
In this case Coupon rate is 10%
Yield is 8.33%
1000*10
----------= 8.33%
1200
Call Money Market
The call money market is an integral part of the
Indian Money Market, where the day-to-day
surplus funds (mostly of banks) are traded.
The money that is lent for one day in this market
is known as "Call Money",
if it exceeds one day (but less than 15 days) it
is referred to as "Notice Money".
Call Money Market



Banks borrow in this market for the following
purpose
To fill the gaps or temporary mismatches in
funds
To meet the CRR & SLR mandatory
requirements as stipulated by the Central bank
To meet sudden demand for funds arising out
of large outflows.
Factors influencing interest rates
The factors which govern the interest rates are mostly
economy related and are commonly referred to as
macroeconomic factors. Some of these factors are:
1) Demand for money
2) Government borrowings
3) Supply of money
4) Inflation rate
5) The Reserve Bank of India and the Government
policies determine some of the variables mentioned
above.
Gilt edged securities
The term government securities encompass all
Bonds & T-bills issued by the Central
Government, and state governments. These
securities are normally referred to, as "giltedged" as repayments of principal as well as
interest are totally secured by sovereign
guarantee.
Treasury Bills
Treasury bills, commonly referred to as T-Bills
are issued by Government of India against
their short term borrowing requirements with
maturities ranging between 14 to 364 days.
All these are issued at a discount-to-face value.
For example a Treasury bill of Rs. 100.00 face
value issued for Rs. 91.50 gets redeemed at the
end of it's tenure at Rs. 100.00.
Who can invest in T-Bill
Banks, Primary Dealers, State Governments,
Provident Funds, Financial Institutions,
Insurance Companies, NBFCs, FIIs (as per
prescribed norms), NRIs & OCBs can invest in
T-Bills.
What is auction of Securities
Auction is a process of calling of bids with an
objective of arriving at the market price. It is
basically a price discovery mechanism
Yield of Treasury Bill






Y= (100-P)*365*100
----------------------P*D
Y = Yield
P= Price
D =Days to maturity
Example


91 days treasury bills maturing on 612-2007
Purchased on 12-10-2007 Rate quoted
is Rs.99.1489 per Rs100
(100-99.1489)*365*100= 31065.15
---------------------------(99.1489*55 days) =5453.18
=5.70%
Debenture


A Debenture is a debt security issued by a
company (called the Issuer), which offers to
pay interest in lieu of the money borrowed for
a certain period.
These are long-term debt instruments issued by
private sector companies. These are issued in
denominations as low as Rs 1000 and have
maturities ranging between one and ten years.
Difference between debenture
and bond
Long-term debt securities issued by the
Government of India or any of the State
Government’s or undertakings owned by them
or by development financial institutions are
called as bonds. Instruments issued by other
entities are called debentures.
Current yield
This is the yield or return derived by the
investor on purchase of the instrument (yield
related to purchase price)
It is calculated by dividing the coupon rate by
the purchase price of the debenture. For e. g: If
an investor buys a 10% Rs 100 debenture of
ABC company at Rs 90, his current Yield on
the instrument would be computed as:
Current Yield = (10%*100)/90 X 100 , That is
11.11% p.a.
Primary Dealers
Primary Dealers can be referred to as
Merchant Bankers to Government of
India, comprising the first tier of the
government securities market. These
were formed during the year 1994-96 to
strengthen the market infrastructure
What role do Primary Dealers play?
The role of Primary Dealers is to;
(i) commit participation as Principals in
Government of India issues through bidding in
auctions
(ii) provide underwriting services
(iii) offer firm buy - sell / bid ask quotes for TBills & dated securities
(v) Development of Secondary Debt Market
OMO
OMO or Open Market Operations is a market
regulating mechanism often resorted to by
Reserve Bank of India. Under OMO
Operations Reserve Bank of India as a market
regulator keeps buying or/and selling securities
through it's open market window. It's decision
to sell or/and buy securities is influenced by
factors such as overall liquidity in the system,
YIELD CURVE

The relationship between time and yield on a
homogenous risk class of securities is called
the Yield Curve. The relationship represents
the time value of money - showing that people
would demand a positive rate of return on the
money they are willing to part today for a
payback into the future
SHAPE OF YIELD CURVE
A yield curve can be positive, neutral or flat. A
positive yield curve, which is most natural, is when
the slope of the curve is positive, i.e. the yield at the
longer end is higher than that at the shorter end of the
time axis. This results, as people demand higher
compensation for parting their money for a longer
time into the future.
A neutral yield curve is that which has a zero slope, i.e.
is flat across time. T his occurs when people are
willing to accept more or less the same returns across
maturities.
The negative yield curve (also called an inverted yield
curve) is one of which the slope is negative, i.e. the
long term yield is lower than the short term yield
Shape of Yield curve
LIBOR


LIBOR stands for the London Interbank Offered
Rate and is the rate of interest at which banks
borrow funds from other banks, in marketable
size, in the London interbank market.
LIBOR is the most widely used "benchmark" or
reference rate for short term interest rates. It is
compiled by the British Bankers Association as a
free service and released to the market at about
11.00[London time] each day.
CRR & SLR
CRR is at present prescribed at 7% of demand
and term liabilities (DTL) of the bank,
respectively, under Reserve Bank of India Act of
1934.
The minimum and maximum SLR are prescribed
at 25% and 40% of DTL respectively, under
Banking Regulation Act of 1949.
The CRR and SLR are to be maintained on
fortnightly basis.
Demand and Time Liabilities





Main components of DTL are:
Demand deposits (held in current and savings
accounts, margin money for LCs, overdue fixed
deposits etc.)
Time deposits (in fixed deposits, recurring deposits,
reinvestment deposits etc.)
Overseas borrowings
Foreign outward remittances in transit (FC liabilities
net of FC assets)
Other demand and time liabilities (accrued interest,
credit balances in suspense account etc. )
SLR



SLR is to be maintained in the form of the
following assets:
Cash balances (excluding balances maintained
for CRR)
Gold (valued at price not exceeding current
market price)
Approved securities valued as per norms
prescribed by RBI.
VaR
Value at Risk (VaR) is the most probable loss that
we may incur in normal market conditions over a
given period due to the volatility of a factor, exchange
rates, interest rates or commodity prices. The
probability of loss is expressed as a percentage – VaR
at 95% confidence level, implies a 5% probability of
incurring the loss; at 99% confidence level the VaR
implies 1% probability of the stated loss. The loss is
generally stated in absolute amounts for a given
transaction value (or value of a investment portfolio).
VaR
A VaR of Rs. 100,000 at 99% confidence
level for one week for a investment portfolio
of Rs. 10,000,000 similarly means that the
market value of the portfolio is most likely
to drop by maximum Rs. 100,000 with 1%
probability over one week.
Exchange Rate Quotation
Exchange Quotations :
There are two methods
 Exchange rate is expressed as the price per unit of foreign
currency in terms of the home currency is known as the
“Home currency quotation” or “Direct Quotation”
 Exchange rate is expressed as the price per unit of home
currency in terms of the foreign currency is known as the
“Foreign Currency Quotation” or “Indirect Quotation”
 Direct Quotation is used in New York and other foreign
exchange markets and Indirect Quotation is used in London
foreign exchange market.
Principles




Direct Quotation: Buy Low, Sell High:
The prime motive of any trader is to make profit. By
purchasing the commodity at lower price and selling
it at a higher price a trader earns the profit. In foreign
exchange, the banker buys the foreign currency at a
lesser price and sells it at a higher price.
Indirect Quotation: Buy High, Sell Low:
A trader for a fixed amount of investment would
acquire more units of the commodity when he
purchases and for the same amount he would part
with lesser units of the commodity when he sells.
Spot and Forward Transactions




‘A’ Bank agrees to buy from ‘B’ Bank USD
100000. The actual exchange of currencies i.e.
payment of rupees and receipt of US Dollars,
under the contract may take place :
on the same day or
two days later or
some day later, say after a month.
Interpretation of Quotation




The market quotation for a currency consists
of the spot rate and the forward margin. The
outright forward rate has to be calculated by
loading the forward margin into the spot rate.
For example US Dollar is quoted as under in
the inter-bank market on a given day as under :
Spot
1 USD = Rs.44.1000/1300
Spot/November
0200/0500
Spot/December
1500/1800
TT Buying Rate


TT Buying Rate (TT stands for Telegraphic
Transfer)
This is the rate applied when the transaction does
not involve any delay in realization of the foreign
exchange by the bank. In other words, the nostro
account of the bank would already have been
credited. The rate is calculated by deducting from
the inter-bank buying rate the exchange margin as
determined by the Bank.
Bills Buying Rate

This is the rate to be applied when a foreign
bill is purchased. When a bill is purchased, the
proceeds will be realized by the Bank after the
bill is presented to the drawee at the overseas
center. In the case of a usance bill the
proceeds will be realized on the due date of the
bill which includes the transit period and the
usance period of the bill.

Swap


A swap agreement between two parties
commits each counterparty to exchange an
amount of funds, determined by a formula, at
regular intervals, until the swap expires.
In the case of a currency swap, there is an
initial exchange of currency and a reverse
exchange at maturity.

bids.
Answer: c
Example
A treasury bill maturing on 28-Jun-2008 is
trading in the market on 3-Jul-2007 at a
price of Rs. 92.8918. What is the discount
rate in this price?
Answer:
The yield is computed as:
= ((100-price)*365)/(Price * No of days to
maturity)
= ((100-92.8918)*365)/(92.8918*360)) =
7.7624%
Example
What is the price at which a treasury bill
maturing on 23rd March 2008 would be
valued on July 13, 2007 at a yield of
6.8204%?
Answer:
The price can be computed as
= 100/(1+(yield% * (No of days to
maturity/365))
= 100/(1+(6.8204%*(253/365)) =
Rs. 95.4858

Repo
A 3-day repo is entered into on July 10, 2007, on an 11.99%
2009 security, maturing on April 7, 2009. The face value of
the transaction is Rs. 3, 00, 00, 000. The price of the security
is Rs. 116.42. If the repo rate is 7%, what is the settlement
amount on July 10, 2007?
Answer: Settlement amount on July 10, 2007 is the transaction
value for the securities plus accrued interest.
Transaction Value:
3, 00, 00, 000 * 116.42/100 =Rs. 3, 49, 26, 000
Accrued Interest:
The number of days is 93.
Accrued interest = 3, 00, 00, 000 * 11.99%* 93/360 = Rs. 9, 29,
225.00
Therefore, the settlement amount is: Rs. 3,49,26,000 + Rs.
9, 29, 225.00 = Rs. 3, 58, 55, 225.00
Example
Compute the Rupee value of an SGL transaction, with the following data:
Coupon Rate: 11.68%
Maturity date: August 6, 2008
Settlement Date: July 11, 2007
Price: Rs. 105.4025
Transaction amount: Rs. 50000000
Answer:
Value of the transaction = number of securities * trade price
= (50000000/100) * 105.4025
= Rs. 5,27,01,250
Accrued Interest for the period since the last coupon is
= days since the last coupon/360 * coupon rate * face value
= (155/360) * 0.1168 * 50000000
= Rs. 25,14,444
Settlement amount = Value of transaction + Accrued Interest
= Rs. 5,27,01,250 + 25,14,444
= Rs. 5,52,15,694
