Book excerpt: Use futures and options to reduce margin requirements and alleviate margin calls-without liquidating holdings or adding funds to your trading account! Margin calls are the necessary evil of trading leveraged instruments. Without margin, speculators would be subject to substantial default risk in addition to the risk of market losses. Unfortunately, many traders allow the fear of a margin call to drive their strategy. Margin calls don't have to be a horrifying experience. There are tactics you can use to avoid them-or avoid scrambling to meet them.

Download or read book Extensive Margin Adjustment of Multi Product Firm and Risk Diversification written by Carlos Carvalho and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product scope adjustment is a key mechanism through which multi-product firms achieve efficient resource allocations. In this paper, we take a novel perspective to study firms’ product scope adjustment behavior through the lens of asset pricing. Using a unique panel scanner data set containing detailed information on products, matched with the financial information of their manufacturers, we find that multi-product firms with higher product turnover have lower financial risks and lower risk premia. To understand this channel, we propose a stylized model with a time-dependent (Calvo-type) product turnover rate to highlight the ’risk absorption channel’ of product scope adjustment. In response to an economy-wide shock, a firm that can adjust its product scope more flexibly shows lower excess equity returns and lower asset volatility.
Download or read book Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Value Adjustment written by Jon Gregory and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-09-07 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide to counterparty risk management and credit value adjustment from a leading credit practitioner Please note that this second edition of Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Value Adjustment has now been superseded by an updated version entitled The XVA Challenge: Counterparty Credit Risk, Funding, Collateral and Capital. Since the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the resultant realization of extensive counterparty risk across the global financial markets, the subject of counterparty risk has become an unavoidable issue for every financial institution. This book explains the emergence of counterparty risk and how financial institutions are developing capabilities for valuing it. It also covers portfolio management and hedging of credit value adjustment, debit value adjustment, and wrong-way counterparty risks. In addition, the book addresses the design and benefits of central clearing, a recent development in attempts to control the rapid growth of counterparty risk. This uniquely practical resource serves as an invaluable guide for market practitioners, policy makers, academics, and students.
Download or read book Margin Changes and Futures Trading Activity written by Antonis A. Aristidou and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines the impact of margins, adjusted for underlying price risk proxied by market volatility, on trading volume and at the same time incorporates the relationship between trading volume and price volatility documented in equities and futures markets. The study estimates bivariate GARCH-M models to take account of the inter-relationships and applies them to the Greek derivatives market over the period 1999-2005. The results show that when adjusting margins for market risk there is no impact on trading volume, casting doubts on the results of previous research, and providing support for the view that margin requirements are used only as a mechanism to prevent trader default.

Download or read book Margin setting by Central Counterparties of Over the counter Derivatives written by Chen Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation of the over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives market since the financial crisis of 2008 has had the objective of reducing risks within this marketplace. OTC derivatives are now cleared through central clearing counterparties (CCPs), and one tool of the CCPs is to set adequate margin requirements for their clearing members. In this thesis, I address the obligations of CCPs and the effect of risk management using margin requirements. I develop the methodology of margin setting using a historical simulation and evaluate the resulting risk-based margin requirements for interest rate swaps. I also address an important aspect of margin-setting which is margin procyclicality, under which margin requirements are increased in stressed markets resulting in an increased risk of default on margin calls as well as feedback effects on the underlying assets of clearing members.
