6.Credit Rationing

Benefit of Long-Term Relationship
• Reducing the cost of information collection -- check firms’ past activities
• Reducing monitoring costs• Reducing borrowers’ moral hazard when they
want to preserve a long-term relationship
Risk Management in Financial Institutions 4
Loan Commitments
• Banks’ commitment to provide a firm with loans up to a given amount at
fixed interest rate or at a rate that is tied to some market interest rates
• Promote long-term relationship
Collateral requirement / Secured Loans• Collateral is a property promised to the lender as compensation if the
borrow defaults
• Reducing adverse selection
Risk Management in Financial Institutions 5
Compensating Balances
• A firm receiving a loan must keep a required minimum amount of funds
in a check account at the bank
• serving as collateral
• monitoring
Credit Rationing• lenders refuse to make loans even though borrows are willing to pay the
stated interest rate or even a higher rate
• two types: (1) no loan; (2) loan with restricted size
• Deal with Adverse Selection and Moral Hazard

Income Gap Analysis
• identifying rate sensitive assets and liabilities
• finding GAP = RSA – RSL
• Income change = GAP *
• About reinvestment risk

Income Gap AnalysisRate-Sensitive Assets = $5m + $ 10m + $15m + 20% x $20m
RSA = $32 m
Rate-Sensitive Liabs = $5m + $25m + $5m+ $10m + 10% x $15m
+ 20%x$15m
RSL = $49.5 m

ΔLiability Costs =
ΔIncome =
If RSL > RSA, i , Income GAP = RSA - RSL
=
ΔIncome = GAP x Δi

Duration Gap Analysis
• Examining the sensitivity of market value of financial
institutions’ net worth to changes in interest rate
• %P = -DUR* i/(1+i)
• if we know the duration of assets and liabilities, we could
calculate the change in net worth due to interest rate change
• duration is additive – using market values as weights
• DURgap = DURa - [L/A x DURl]
• About interest rate risk

Example 3 (page 630)
• Interest rate rise from 10% to 15%
• Total asset value $100 million
• Total liability value $95 million
• Durations for each asset and liability as illustrated in Table 1

Duration Gap Analysis%ΔP - DUR x Δi/(1+i)
i 5%, from 10% to 15%
ΔAsset Value = %ΔP x Assets
ΔLiability Value = %ΔP x Liabilities
ΔNW =
DURgap = DURa - [L/A x DURl]
%ΔNW = - DURgap x Δi/(1+i)
ΔNW =

Managing Interest-Rate Risk
Problems with GAP Analysis
1. Assumes slope of yield curve unchanged and flat
2. Manager estimates % of fixed rate assets and liabilities that are rate sensitive

Managing Interest-Rate Risk
Strategies for Managing Interest-Rate RiskTo completely immunize net worth from interest-
rate risk, set DURgap = 0

Hedging with Financial Derivatives
• Forwards
• Futures
• Options
• Swaps

Suppose in Nov 2002, Fleet holds $10 million face value of 10%-coupon rate Treasury bonds selling at par that mature in Nov 2013.

How will Fleet hedge its interest rate risks?
Risk Management in Financial Institutions 19
Forward Contracts
Agreements by two parties to engage in a financial transaction at a future point of time
Risk Management in Financial Institutions 20
Interest-Rate Forward MarketsLong contract = buy securities at future date
Locks in future interest rate
Short contract = sell securities at future date
Locks in future price, so reduces price risk from change in interest rates
Pros
1. Flexible
Cons
1. Lack of liquidity: hard to find counter party
2. Subject to default risk: Requires info to screen good from bad risk

Fleet could short (sell), at today’s price and interest rate, $10 million of the Treasury bond to another party one year later (in Nov 2003) – forward contract
The other party could take a short position on US Treasury bonds

Financial Futures MarketsTraded on Exchanges: Global competition Regulated by CFTC
Financial Futures Contract
1. Specifies delivery of type of security at future date
2. Arbitrage At expiration date, price of contract = price of the underlying asset delivered
3. i , long contract has loss, short contract has profit
Differences in Futures from Forwards
1. Futures more liquid: standardized, can be traded again, delivery of range of securities
2. Delivery of range prevents corner
3. Mark to market: avoids default risk
4. Don't have to deliver: net long and short

Alternatively, Fleet could take a short position of $10 million 10% 2003 Treasury bond futures contract

Options
Options Contract
Right to buy (call option) or sell (put option) instrument at exercise (strike) price up until expiration date (American) or on expiration date (European)
