This result marks a sharp increase (+39%) on 31 December 2007, determined solely in the fourth quarter by the current corporate perimeter arising from the merger of Banca d’Intermediazione Mobiliare IMI into Banca Caboto. All operating margins – core results, non-recurring results, and operating costs – contributed to the achievement of this positive result. Core business results generated by the capital markets and investment banking segments exceeded 600 million, up by 26% on the previous year, showing a distribution by quarter only partly influenced by the overall economic and market scenario. Net non-recurring results came to 121 million (133 million at 31 December 2007), substantially unchanged in its contribution to the bottom line. During the periods compared, this revenue, as is typical of revenue not attributable to operating desks, showed different compositions. At 31 December 2007 the item had benefited from revenue earned on the merger between Borsa Italiana and the London Stock Exchange, whereas one year later, in the fourth quarter, it suffered the effects of the deterioration of the credit spreads of financial institutions on Banca IMI’s statement of income. The bid prices of asset classes attributable to banks in portfolio, including the domestic mortgage-backed securities and securitizations originated by the government system and the Group, were severely affected by this phenomenon. Similarly, the general widening of credit spreads following the bankruptcy of the investment bank Lehman Brothers was reflected in the measurement of the structured liabilities issued by Banca IMI at fair value. The creditworthiness of the issuer and the Group, which had always played an accessory role with respect to the value of the financial assets in which funding was invested, was a primary factor in the fourth quarter, when it depressed the values of these liabilities. Net interest and other banking income, which came to 727 million, was shaped by the results of the Capital Markets business (639 million) and the Investment Banking business (88 million). The above figure does not include the revenue reported by the foreign subsidiaries based in New York (Capital Markets) and Luxembourg (Investment Banking), which came to 12 and 21 million, respectively. The trend in operating costs, which fell by 17%, is a reflection of the focus on monitoring the aggregate and structural containment of the items directly controlled by the Company, particularly consulting, logistics and general overhead. Personnel expenses fell by 38 million, confirming the stability of ordinary wage items, essentially due to the decline in human resources employed. The result of operational management came to 477 million (314 million at 31 December 2007), resulting in a cost/income ratio of 41.3%, compared to 48.9% in the previous year. The monitoring of the risks implicit in assets led to adjustments of 37 million, of which 29 million was attributable to the overall net exposure on financial transactions with companies of the Lehman Brothers Group. A further 8 million in adjustments pertained to the portfolio impairment of on-balance sheet exposures lending commitments. The statement of income was also affected by 16 million in credit risk adjustments to OTC derivatives exposures. This amount was directly deducted from “Profits (losses) on trading”. 8 Provisions for risks and charges, which in 2007 referred to the resolution of the Parmalat dispute and the expenses associated with the integration progress, were less significant in 2008. The positive balance of other income in both periods originates in the recognition of out-of-period items due to expenses previously charged in amounts exceeding the effective outlay or liability. Income before tax came to 452 million compared to 299 million at 31 December 2007. Income taxes, under the increased tax rate (35.1% compared to 29.5%), were affected by the larger taxable base in connection with the full taxation of dividends collected on trading securities for the purposes of IRES (corporate income tax) and 50% for the purposes of IRAP (regional production tax), in addition to the inability to deduct all interest expenses. These factors more than offset the nominal decrease in tax rates. The lesser effective tax rate in 2007 was also due to the more favourable taxation of the Borsa-LSE capital gain. The Bank’s capital solidity was confirmed in Q4 2008, with a Tier I capital ratio of 11% and a Tier Total of 12.1%, despite the redemption of subordinated Tier III loans in the amount of 530 million and the allocation of 74% of distributable profits to dividends during the year. The constant improvement in the liquidity situation, most notably the increase in bond funding by 14 billion over the year (over 6 billion in the fourth quarter alone), resulted in the inversion of the interbank position held by Banca IMI, typically a borrower, and now a net lender.

  • Put/Call Parity
    Execution * Research 141 W. Jackson Blvd. 1220A Chicago, IL 60604 Consulting * Asset Management The grain markets had an extremely volatile day today, and with the wheat market locked limit, many traders and customers have questions on how to figure out the futures price of the underlying commodities via the options market - Or the synthetic value of the futures. Below is an educational piece that should help brokers, traders, and customers find that synthetic value using the options markets. Any questions please do not hesitate to call us. Best Regards, Linn Group Management PUT/CALL PARITY Despite what sometimes seems like utter chaos and mayhem, options markets are in fact, orderly and uniform. There are some basic and easy to understand concepts that are essential to understanding the marketplace. The first and most important option concept is called put/call parity . This is simply the relationship between the underlying contract and the same strike, put and call. The formula is: Call price – put price + strike price = future price* Therefore, if one knows any two of the inputs, the third can be calculated. This triangular relationship is the cornerstone of understanding how options work and is true across the whole range of out of the money and in the money strikes. * To simplify the formula we have assumed no dividends, no early exercise, interest rate factors or liquidity issues. By then using this concept of put/call parity one can take the next step and create synthetic positions using options. For example, one could buy a put and sell a call with the same exercise price and expiration date which would be the synthetic equivalent of a short future position.

  • A Defensive Equity Solution Using Put Options
    A defensive equity solution using put options Reducing volatility and sensitivity to drawdowns while providing similar returns Client case study The organization A large public pension fund desired a change to its U.S. Large Cap equity portfolio that would reduce volatility, mitigate sensitivity to drawdowns, and provide a similar return to the S&P 500 Index. To accomplish these objectives, Russell Investments implemented a put-writing mandate to harvest the volatility risk premium by selling fully-covered put options on the S&P 500 Index while simultaneously investing the cash collateral in a range of short- and intermediate-term high-grade debt instruments. The challenge Volatility can have a destructive impact on portfolio value by reducing the compounding rate of portfolio returns. A decline of 10% in one year followed by an increase of 10% in the next year does not mean you broke even. In this case, the portfolio lost 1%.1 When responding to the harmful characteristics of volatility, many investors have pursued strategies that alter the risk-return profile, specifically seeking solutions that offer lower risk for similar returns. The solution As shown in Exhibit 1, over the last 30 years, writing puts on the S&P 500 Index has resulted in similar returns, consistently lower risk, and shallower drawdowns (along with a faster recovery after the drawdown) relative to the index.2 Writing puts has historically Writing put options is a way to capture the volatility risk premium that is embedded in shown to provide 90% of the pricing of options. There is persistent demand in the marketplace to buy option the return with 70% of the protection that can be harvested (similar to selling an insurance premium).
