Liquidity Management
Banks liquidity management is the process of generating funds to meet contractual or relationship obligations at reasonable prices at all times. New loan demands, existing commitments, and deposit withdrawals are the basic contractual or relationship obligations that a bank must meet.
Funding Avenues
To satisfy funding needs, a bank must perform one or a combination of the following: Dispose off liquid assets Increase short term borrowings Decrease holding of less liquid assets Increase liability of a term nature Increase Capital funds

STRATEGIES
To meet the mismatch in any maturity bucket, the bank has to look into taking deposit and invest it suitably so as to mature in time bucket with negative mismatch. The bank can raise fresh deposits of Rs 300 crore over 5 years maturities and invest it in securities of 1-29 days of Rs 200 crores and rest matching with other out flows.

Remember
Duration is a measure of the effective maturity of a security.
Duration incorporates the timing and size of a securitys cash flows. Duration measures how price sensitive a security is to changes in interest rates.
The greater (shorter) the duration, the greater (lesser) the price sensitivity.
Duration (Revision)
Duration of a bond that provides cash flow c i at time t i is
ti ci ey ti B i =1 n
where B is its price and y is its yield (continuously compounded) This leads to
B = D y B
52
How?
B=dB/dyy for small change in y. Using the bond pricing relationship B= cie-yti substituting dB/dy we get B= -BDy.
53
Example
Calculate the duration for a 3 year 10% coupon bond with a face value of 100. The yield on the bond is 12% per annum with continuous compounding. The coupons are paid every six months.

Understanding Duration
For the bond considered the B=94.213 and D=2.653. Therefore B= -94.213 * 2.653y or B=-249.95 y thus when the yield increases by 0.1% the bond price goes down to 93.963. The same can be checked by using the conventional formula for price of the bond.

Example
What is the modified duration of the bond with price 94.213 and duration 2.653. The yield with semiannual compounding is 12.3673%.

Effective Duration
Effective Duration
Used to estimate a securitys price sensitivity when the security contains embedded options. Compares a securitys estimated price in a falling and rising rate environment.
Effective Duration
Pi- - Pi+ Effective Duration = + P1(i - i )
Where:
Pi- = Price if rates fall Pi+ = Price if rates rise P0 = Initial (current) price i+ = Initial market rate plus the increase in rate i- = Initial market rate minus the decrease in rate
Example
Effective Duration
Consider a 3-year, 9.4 percent semi-annual coupon bond selling for Rs10,000 par to yield 9.4 percent to maturity. Macaulays Duration for the option-free version of this bond is 5.36 semiannual periods, or 2.68 years. The Modified Duration of this bond is 5.12 semiannual periods or 2.56 years.
Effective Duration
Example
Assume, instead, that the bond is callable at par in the near-term .
If rates fall, the price will not rise much above the par value since it will likely be called If rates rise, the bond is unlikely to be called and the price will fall
Effective Duration
Example
If rates rise 30 basis points to 5% semiannually, the price will fall to Rs9,847.72. If rates fall 30 basis points to 4.4% semiannually, the price will remain at par
Duration GAP
Duration GAP Model
Focuses on either managing the market value of stockholders equity
The bank can protect EITHER the market value of equity or net interest income, but not both Duration GAP analysis emphasizes the impact on equity
Duration GAP
Duration GAP Analysis
Compares the duration of a banks assets with the duration of the banks liabilities and examines how the economic value stockholders equity will change when interest rates change.
Price Risk
Changes in interest rates will change the market values of the banks assets and liabilities
Price Risk
If interest rates change, the value of assets and liabilities also change.
The longer the duration, the larger the change in value for a given change in interest rates
Duration GAP considers the impact of changing rates on the market value of equity
Price risk
If interest rates rise (fall), the price falls (rises). Thus, if you sell the security prior to maturity, the HPR falls (rises).
Forecasts changes in the market value of stockholders equity across different interest rate environments.

i wi = Market value of asset i divided by the market value of all bank assets

Duration GAP
Then:
DGAP = DA - (MVL/MVA)DL
y EVE = - DGAP MVA + y) (1
To protect the economic value of equity against any change when rates change , the bank could set the duration gap to zero:

What does this tell us?
The average duration of assets is greater than the average duration of liabilities; thus asset values change by more than liability values.

Calculating DGAP
DGAP
2.86 - (Rs906/Rs974) * 1.58 = 1.36 years
What does 1.36 mean?
The average duration of assets is greater than the average duration of liabilities, thus asset values change by more than liability values.
Negative DGAP
Indicates that weighted liabilities are more price sensitive than weighted assets.
Thus, when interest rates rise (fall), assets will fall proportionately less (more) in value that liabilities and the EVE will rise (fall).

An Immunized Portfolio
To immunize the EVE from rate changes in the example, the bank would need to:
decrease the asset duration by 1.42 years or increase the duration of liabilities by 1.54 years DA / ( MVA/MVL) = 1.42 / (Rs920 / Rs1,000) = 1.54 years

EVE changed by only Rs0.5 with the immunized portfolio versus Rs25.0 when the portfolio was not immunized.
If DGAP* is positive, the banks net interest income will decrease when interest rates decrease, and increase when rates increase.
If DGAP* is negative, the relationship is reversed.
Effectively involves the same steps as earnings sensitivity analysis. In EVE analysis, however, the bank focuses on:
The relative durations of assets and liabilities How much the durations change in different interest rate environments What happens to the economic value of equity across different rate environments
Embedded Options
Embedded options sharply influence the estimated volatility in EVE
Prepayments that exceed (fall short of) that expected will shorten (lengthen) duration. A bond being called will shorten duration. A deposit that is withdrawn early will shorten duration. A deposit that is not withdrawn as expected will lengthen duration.

Sensitivity of Economic Value of Equity measures the change in the economic value of the corporations equity under various changes in interest rates. Rate changes are instantaneous changes from current rates. The change in economic value of equity is derived from the difference between changes in the market value of assets and changes
Strengths
Duration analysis provides a comprehensive measure of interest rate risk Duration measures are additive
This allows for the matching of total assets with total liabilities rather than the matching of individual accounts
Duration analysis takes a longer term view than static gap analysis
Weaknesses
It is difficult to compute duration accurately Correct duration analysis requires that each future cash flow be discounted by a distinct discount rate A bank must continuously monitor and adjust the duration of its portfolio It is difficult to estimate the duration on assets and liabilities that do not earn or pay interest Duration measures are highly subjective

It is not known today what a 1-year security will yield in one year. For the two consecutive 1-year securities to generate the same Rs120 in interest, ignoring compounding, the 1-year security must yield 6.5% one year from the present. This break-even rate is a 1-year forward rate, one year from the present:
6% + 6% = 5.5% + x so x must = 6.5%
By investing in the 1-year security, a depositor is betting that the 1-year interest rate in one year will be greater than 6.5% By issuing the 2-year security, the bank is betting that the 1-year interest rate in one year will be greater than 6.5%
As the economy contracts, the Federal Reserve typically increases the money supply, which causes the rates to fall and the yield curve to return to its normal shape.
Price deposits on a floating-rate basis Lengthen the duration of assets relative to the duration of liabilities
Interest Rates and the Business Cycle The general level of interest rates and the shape of the yield curve appear to follow the U.S. business cycle.
