Basel 3 focuses on four key regulatory components:1) Capital: Increases minimum regulatory capital ratios (Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1, Total Capital) and

tightens definitions of eligible capital

2) Liquidity: Introduces two new liquidity ratios

3) Risk Weighted Assets (RWA): Introduces additional risk charges to account for counterparty credit risk intrading book and derivatives exposures

4) Leverage: Introduces global leverage limitations (Basel 3 goes beyond existing requirements in the U.S.)

LiquidityCoverage Ratio(LCR)

Tests an institution's ability to surviveacute short-term stress (30-dayperiod)Objective: Increase banks’ holdingsof highly liquid assets

Net StableFunding Ratio(NSFR)

Basel 3 Key Components Availability / Pricing of Credit

1. Higher capital ratios

2. Increased liquidityrequirements (LCR, NSFR)

3. Additional capital charges(CVA, etc.)

4. Leverage constraints (LR)

Impact on credit facilities– Increased internal charges to be

passed through to borrowers (viahigher spreads) and/or investorsin bank shares (via lower ROEs)

– Curtailment of certain lendingproducts (e.g. liquidity facilities,long-term cash lending)

– Resource allocation to top tierclient relationships

Impact on derivatives markets– Increased credit charges on

derivatives transactions

Impact on bond markets– Shift in supply / demand dynamics

What can corporate borrowers do to be bestpositioned for Basel 3?

Given Basel 3’s expected (negative) impact on the pricing and availability ofbank credit, clients should explore alternative financing strategies

Closely monitor bank market developments around pricing/availability/structure of revolvingcredit lines, particularly CP back-stop facilities

Consider alternatives to traditional bank products that are expected to be most affected (e.g. CPback-stops, syndicated letter of credit facilities)

In Section 5, we present an overview of potential solutions, including:

– 4 financing alternatives that leverage the capital markets– 3 potential alternatives to traditional commercial paper / back

clients to explore in more detail (Tab E)– Overview of the mechanics and key attributes of

Impact on OTC derivatives

Description

Credit ValuationAdjustment

(CVA)(1)Pre-Basel 3: Capital charges only for default risk(and ratings migration)

– No charges required to capture a deterioration ofa counterparty’s credit profile

Basel 3: Introduces explicit capital charge add-onfor Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) on all OTCderivatives transactions

– CVA risk charge calculated using normal andstressed market assumptions

– According to BIS, during the financial crisis, ~2/3of banks’ accounting losses attributed tocounterparty credit risk were caused by mark-to-market adjustments from rising credit spreads (i.e.CVA), and only 1/3 were due to actual defaults

Margin Period ofRisk(MPR)

Increase in MPR from 5 – 10 days to 20 days forcomplex and/or illiquid collateralized trades

If daily re-margining, no changes

(1) “CVA” – fair value adjustment to mark-to-market derivatives for counterparty credit riskSource: Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, S&P, Deutsche Bank

Implications for Derivatives Counterparties

1. Pricing of derivatives transactions should nowreflect either:i. Cost of hedging CVA exposure (e.g. CDS); or

ii. Banks’ required hurdle rate on incremental RWAcreated by CVA charge

2. Longer transaction tenors lead to higher CVAcapital charges

3. Higher volatility in CDS leads to higher CVA capitalcharges

4. Expect increased use of master agreements thatpermit regulatory netting

5. Expect shift from uncollateralized trades to mutualCSAs

1. Favor daily re-margining agreements

2. Avoid illiquid collateral and highly complextransactions

Margin Period of Risk (MPR) overview

Pre-Basel 3

Margin Period of Risk (MPR) – Time period from (i) the lastexchange of collateral covering a netting set of transactionswith a defaulting counterparty, until (ii) that counterparty isclosed out and the resulting market risk is re-hedged

Supervisory floors (i.e. minimum holding periods)established depending on type of transaction

– Securities Financing Transactions (SFTs) – includes repo-style transactions

– Other collateralized trades

A capital charge is calculated based on the expected mark-to-market movements during the MPR

Current MPR standards:

MPR floor for SFT = 5 daysMPR floor for all other “netting sets” = 10 days

Key Considerations

Key Benefits

All-in cost to the final program maturity (5-6 yrs) should besubstantially lower than equivalent term funding rates, as noinvestor term premium is required

Pre-determined coupon step-up schedule significantly flatterthan an issuer’s vanilla floating-rate curve

No incremental back-up liquidity required for rating agencypurposes

A rolling 13-mo. maturity should allow an issuer to classify RSTNotes as long-term debt (assuming monthly extensions)

Allows issuer to access money market investor base

Transaction history dating back to 1998, with a very highhistorical investor extension participation rate

Key Considerations

× Introduces short-term liquidity risk into issuer’s capital structure

×Long-term debt classification less certain if issuer electsquarterly extension periods

Key considerations

Key Benefits

Short-term funding that does not use relationship bank capacity

Competitive pricing vs. long-term funding

– Take advantage of steepness of companies’ CDS curves

– Forward CDS spreads typically exceed realized credit spreads

No financial covenants required

Pre-payable at par annually

Enables a company to express bullish view on its own credit

Precedent transaction history

Private transaction limits disclosure requirements

Avoid potentially negative signal to market if incremental liquidityis needed

May not require bifurcation under US GAAP due to “closelyrelated” nature of linking cost of funding to a company’s owncredit spreads


Key Considerations

Company exposed to potential widening of 1y CDS spreads ateach annual coupon re-set date

FMV termination payment if prepaid intra-year

– Company to pay if CDS tightens; DB to pay if CDS widens

For unfunded (revolver) structure, [3]-day advance noticerequired as Condition Precedent to each draw to enable DB toprocure CDS in the market

Comparison of DB-LC and alternatives

Key Benefits

Traditional LC Often structured off existing credit facility pricing,availability, and duration

Typically lowest cost alternative

May allow funded loan if underlying agreementprovides for a drawn facility

DB-LC Based on market CDS, not revolver capacity, freeingup liquidity under a company’s traditional revolver

Up to 5 year term with fixed, transparent pricingbased on purchased CDS

LCs may be issued for the benefit of any of thecompany’s affiliates or subsidiaries

No balance sheet impact unless an LC is drawn, andinterest expense should be tax deductible

Two documentation alternatives:

a) Establish a sub-limit for “CP Backdrawn to repay CP above the sub

b) Document two distinct facilities

2) Synthetic ContingentLiquidity Facility

An SPV issues term bonds into the capital markets, guaranteed by a corporate sponsor– Bond proceeds are re-invested in UST money market funds

Corporate sponsor enters into an agreement with SPV, whereby it can draw on the cash in exchange fordelivering new senior bonds to the SPV– Corporate sponsor pays a running premium to the SPV, which (together with interest

cover coupon payments on the SPV bonds

SPV bonds remain off-balance sheet (and offproceeds

3) Callable Commercial PaperProgram(2)

(for “A-1/P-1” or better names only)

Establish a new CP program where issuance is limited to CP with a final maturity of 60 daysissuer call option on Day 30-45– If CP is called, company would refinance with new CP under the program

– If CP is not called, company would pay a step

– If company does not call, and cannot refinance, existing CP would mature on final maturity date

Posting to counterparty under CSA

Mechanics of CSAs

(a) Collateral posting requirement on a $500mm 10y swap executed in FebSource: Deutsche Bank Global Markets

A Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) to an ISDA Master Agreement provides for counterparties to postcollateral (typically cash or Treasuries) against the mark

A party who is out-of-the-money by an amount greater than a predetermined threshold posts to theother party collateral equal to excess of the market value over the threshold

The threshold represents the maximum uncollateralized exposure, and may be zero

In the event of default, the non-defaulting party liquidates collateral to cover the termination cost ofthe ISDA

Basel 3 imposes newcapital charges onbanks for counterpartycredit risk in OTCderivatives, resulting inincreased transactioncosts

Execution of a 2-wayCSA can significantlymitigate such costs

Key considerations

Key Benefits

Reduce bank counterparty credit risk

Improve credit and balance sheet charges imposed bybank counterparties

Reduce potential impact of FAS 157 counterpartyvaluation adjustments

Key Considerations

Operational costs

Funding cost on posted collateral

– Since a company earns interest on posted collateral, posting is aneconomic cost only if the opportunity cost of funds is greater thanthe rate earned (typically fed funds)

The potential cost of posting can be reduced further by:

– Executing CSAs with positive thresholds

– Distributing derivatives transactions among counterparties toavoid mark-to-market concentrations

– If feasible, trading out of offshore subsidiaries with access toexcess cash
