bye laws, rules and regulations of theexchanges, which are under constant review
provide a well founded, clear and transparent
legal basis for trading, settlement, enforcement
of securities contracts and protection of
investors interests.

Risk management (contd)
Margining For the Cash Market –
Securities categorised on measures of liquidity and volatility For liquidity - using mean impact cost analysis on the
basis of random snapshots (4 time a day) of daily orderbook over past six months on a rolling basis;
For volatility- using index sigma and stock sigma
Computation methodology disseminated to public throughthe web sites of the exchanges
Margins are on a gross basis – gross across securities forthe same client, but netted for the same secuirtiy
All calculations systems driven – no manual intervention atany stage, except for setting the algorithms
Above methodology validated by extensive back testing

Margining For the Cash Market –
VAR margin covers a confidence interval of 99% over a
one day time horizon Second line of margining for the balance 1% scenario In addition Mark to market margin
Margins collected on T+1, before trading begins next day
Inability to pay margins results in automatic switching off ofmember terminal denying access for fresh orders
In addition members have gross exposure limits related to their
capital which is on line monitored real time by the exchanges
Margins to be brought in cash and government securities
(with hair cut) and bank guarantee from selected banks

Both models of CCP available – Clearing Corporation of
National Stock Exchange set up by the exchange as
wholly owned subsidiary, acting as CCP to all trades and
novation with multi lateral netting
Stress tests done to check the adequacy of trade
guarantee funds of the CCP
So far no occasion in which the CCP has failed on
account of inadequacy of capital. The clearing corporation
of NSE has back stop liquidity facility with the central
bank by way of line of credit which it had no occasion to
draw upon in the last 7 years even under conditions ofextreme market volatility
