OTC market developments in the first half of 2011

After an increase of only 3% in the second half of 2010, total notional amounts outstanding of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives rose by 18% in the first half of 2011, reaching $708 trillion by the end of June 2011 (Graph 1, left-hand panel, and Table 1). 1 Notional amounts outstanding of credit default swaps (CDS) grew by 8%, while outstanding equity-linked contracts went up by 21%. Gross market values 2 of all OTC contracts declined by 8%, driven mainly by the 10% reduction in the market value of interest rate contracts. CDS market values were almost unchanged. Overall gross credit exposure 3 dropped by a further 15% to $3.0 trillion, compared with a 3% decrease in the second half of 2010.

Interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives OTC interest rate derivatives (Table 3): In the largest risk category in the OTC derivatives market, notional amounts outstanding increased by 19% in the first half of 2011. Contracts on dollar rates were up 13%. Positions in all currencies increased, including the Canadian dollar (+63%, partly due to additional coverage), sterling (+33%), the euro (+24%) and the Swiss franc (+21%). Overall interest rate derivative market values fell by around 10%. FX derivatives (Table 2): The notional amounts of FX derivatives increased by 12%, with maturities of one year or less up 26%, while maturities over five years almost halved (48%). Gross market values dropped 6%. Market values for instruments on yen contracted by 21%, and those on the Swedish krona were down 18%. The market value of instruments on the Swiss franc remained fairly steady (rising 9%, after increases of 46% and 106% in the preceding two half-years).

About 0.6 percentage point of this increase was due to expanded reporting coverage in Canada. Gross market values, which measure the cost of replacing all existing contracts, provide a measure of market risk. Gross credit exposures take into account legally enforceable bilateral netting agreements (see Statistical notes 2.2). Before 2011, excluding CDS contracts for all countries except the United States.

As of June 2011, additional data are reported for: CDS net market values (Table 4), sector breakdown for securitised products, 4 rating information (Table 5) and a breakdown by counterparty location (Table 8). CDS notional amounts outstanding increased moderately in the first part of 2011 (+8%). Positions with other financial institutions were up 2%. Amounts outstanding with central counterparties (CCPs) increased to about 17% of the total market at end-June 2011, after reaching 15% at end-December 2010. 5 Positions with nonfinancial customers dropped another 23% to $238 billion after a 63% decline in the second half of 2010. They now represent less than 1% of the market compared with the previous peak of 5%, reached at the end of December 2009. CDS gross market values were largely unchanged at $1.3 trillion, reflecting a decline of 3% for single-name CDS, and a 5% increase for multi-name contracts. With the exception of contracts with CCPs (+19%) and insurance firms (+21%), market values decreased with counterparties such as banks and security firms (31%) and other financial customers (12%, including special purpose vehicles (SPVs) and hedge funds, which were not identified separately before June 2011). Contracts with SPVs and hedge funds accounted for 2% and 3% of total of CDS notional amounts outstanding, but for around 10% and 5% of their net market values, respectively (Table 4). The single-name sovereign CDS market, accounting for 8% of total CDS notional amounts, increased by 8%, after a 6% rise in the previous half-year, but representing less than half of the 23% gain during the first half of 2010. Positions in single-name, non-sovereign CDS eased by 2% in the first half of 2011.

With regard to the maturity structure, notional amounts grew 23% in the short segment and 8% in the medium-term bucket, while there was little change in the long-term (five years and over) component (+1%). Counterparty location was reported for the first time (Table 8) and revealed that most CDS are held with non-local counterparties (82%). A more detailed geographical breakdown is expected to be published in future releases.

Equity and commodity derivatives Equity derivatives: Notional amounts outstanding of equity-linked contracts increased by 21%. Positions in equity-linked options were up by 26%, while those in forwards and swaps increased by 11%. Market values rose by 5% in forwards and swaps and by 11% in options. Commodity derivatives: Amounts outstanding grew by 9%, with contracts on gold up 18% and options on precious metals and other commodities up 19%. However, gross market values on commodity contracts fell by 10%. Concentration indices According to Herfindahl indices calculated on the basis of responses from individual dealers, concentration was largely unchanged in most sectors. In the interest rate segment, with the inclusion of new reporters, concentration in all instruments (options in particular) on the Canadian dollar dropped markedly from previously elevated levels. Concentration in interest rate options on the Swiss franc significantly increased (Table 9a). Concentration in instruments linked to Latin American equities, which had risen strongly in the second half of 2010, dropped to levels comparable to those in other regions (Table 9c).

Statistical notes
Coverage

As of end-June 1998, the central banks of the 11 reporting countries 6 introduced reporting by leading global dealers as a regular feature of the collection of statistics on derivatives markets. The aim is to obtain reasonably comprehensive and internationally consistent information on the size and structure of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives markets. The semiannual OTC derivatives market statistics (Tables 1 to 3) provide data on notional amounts and gross market values outstanding for forwards, swaps and options on foreign exchange, interest rate, equity and commodity derivatives. All published figures are adjusted for double-counting of positions between reporting institutions. Notional amounts outstanding are adjusted by halving positions vis--vis other reporting dealers. Total gross market values are calculated by adding all reporters contracts with positive market value to the absolute value of reporters contracts with non-reporting counterparties that have negative market value. As of end-June 2004, the BIS began releasing statistics on concentration measures in the context of the semiannual OTC derivatives statistics. The central banks of the 11 reporting countries provided the BIS with data back to June 1998, including concentration measures for foreign exchange, interest rate and equity-linked derivatives (Tables 9a to 9i). In response to a request from the Committee on the Global Financial System (CGFS), as of end-December 2004 the BIS began releasing semiannual statistics on credit default swaps (CDS) (Tables 4 to 8). These include notional amounts outstanding and gross market values for single- and multi-name instruments. From end-June 2010 more granular information is collected on CDS counterparties, ie Central Counterparties, Special Purpose Vehicles and Hedge Funds, and index products as a subset of multi-name CDS instruments are shown separately. As of June 2011, additional data on net market values, an expanded sector breakdown for securitised products, additional rating information and a breakdown by counterparty location have been reported to the BIS. 2. 2.1 Definitions Reporting basis

Data on amounts outstanding are collected and reported on a consolidated basis. This means that data from all branches and (majority-owned) subsidiaries worldwide of a given institution are aggregated and reported by the parent institution to the official monetary authority in the country where the parent institution has its head office. Deals between affiliates (ie branches and subsidiaries) of the same institution are excluded from the reporting.

Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. From December 2011, Australia and Spain are expected to contribute to the semiannual survey, bringing to 13 the number of reporting countries.

2.2

Types of data collected

Notional amounts outstanding: Nominal or notional amounts outstanding are defined as the gross nominal or notional value of all deals concluded and not yet settled on the reporting date. For contracts with variable nominal or notional principal amounts, the basis for reporting is the nominal or notional principal amounts at the time of reporting. Nominal or notional amounts outstanding provide a measure of market size and a reference from which contractual payments are determined in derivatives markets. However, such amounts are generally not those truly at risk. The amounts at risk in derivatives contracts are a function of the price level and/or volatility of the financial reference index used in the determination of contract payments, the duration and liquidity of contracts, and the creditworthiness of counterparties. They are also a function of whether an exchange of notional principal takes place between counterparties. Gross market values provide a more accurate measure of the scale of financial risk transfer taking place in derivatives markets. Gross positive and negative market values: Gross market values are defined as the sums of the absolute values of all open contracts with either positive or negative replacement values evaluated at market prices prevailing on the reporting date. Thus, the gross positive market value of a dealers outstanding contracts is the sum of the replacement values of all contracts that are in a current gain position to the reporter at current market prices (and therefore, if they were settled immediately, would represent claims on counterparties). The gross negative market value is the sum of the values of all contracts that have a negative value on the reporting date (ie those that are in a current loss position and therefore, if they were settled immediately, would represent liabilities of the dealer to its counterparties). The term gross indicates that contracts with positive and negative replacement values with the same counterparty are not netted. Nor are the sums of positive and negative contract values within a market risk category such as foreign exchange contracts, interest rate contracts, equities and commodities set off against one another. As stated above, gross market values supply information about the potential scale of market risk in derivatives transactions. Furthermore, gross market value at current market prices provides a measure of economic significance that is readily comparable across markets and products. Gross credit exposure and liabilities: Gross credit exposure represents the gross value of contracts that have a positive market value after taking account of legally enforceable bilateral netting agreements. Liabilities arising from OTC derivatives contracts represent the gross value of contracts that have a negative market value taking account of legally enforceable bilateral netting agreements. Herfindahl index: The Herfindahl index represents a measure of market concentration and is defined as the sum of the squares of the market shares of each individual institution. It ranges from 0 to 10,000. The more concentrated the market, the higher the measure becomes. If the market is fully concentrated (only one institution) the measure will have the (maximum) value of 10,000. 2.3 Instrument types

Forward contracts: Forward contracts represent agreements for delayed delivery of financial instruments or commodities in which the buyer agrees to purchase and the seller agrees to deliver, at a specified future date, a specified instrument or commodity at a specified price or yield. Forward contracts are generally not traded on organised exchanges and their contractual terms are not standardised. The reporting exercise also includes transactions where only the difference between the contracted forward outright rate and the prevailing spot rate is settled at maturity, such as non-deliverable forwards (ie forwards which do not require physical delivery of a non-convertible currency) and other contracts for differences.

OTC derivatives market activity, first half 2011

Swaps: Swaps are transactions in which two parties agree to exchange payment streams based on a specified notional amount for a specified period. Forward-starting swap contracts are reported as swaps. Options: Option contracts confer either the right or the obligation, depending upon whether the reporting institution is the purchaser or the writer, respectively, to buy or sell a financial instrument or commodity at a specified price up to a specified future date. Single-name CDS: A credit derivative where the reference entity is a single name. Multi-name CDS: A contract where the reference entity is more than one name, as in portfolio or basket CDS or CDS indices. A basket CDS is a CDS where the credit event is the default of some combination of the credits in a specified basket of credits. Index products: Multi-name credit default swap contracts with constituent reference credits and a fixed coupon that are determined by an administrator such as Markit (which administers the CDX indices and the iTraxx indices). Index products include tranches of credit default swap indices. 2.3.1. Specific definitions for foreign exchange transactions Outright forward: Transaction involving the exchange of two currencies at a rate agreed on the date of the contract for value or delivery (cash settlement) at some time in the future (more than two business days later). This category also includes forward foreign exchange agreement transactions (FXA), non-deliverable forwards and other forward contracts for differences. Transaction involving the actual exchange of two currencies (principal amount only) on a specific date at a rate agreed at the time of the conclusion of the contract (the short leg), and a reverse exchange of the same two currencies at a date further in the future at a rate (generally different from the rate applied to the short leg) agreed at the time of the contract (the long leg). Both spot/forward and forward/forward swaps should be included. Short-term swaps carried out as tomorrow/next day transactions should also be included in this category. Contract which commits two counterparties to exchange streams of interest payments in different currencies for an agreed period of time and to exchange principal amounts in different currencies at a pre-agreed exchange rate at maturity. Option contract that gives the right to buy or sell a currency with another currency at a specified exchange rate during a specified period. This category also includes exotic foreign exchange options such as average rate options and barrier options.

2.3.2. Specific definitions for single-currency interest rate derivatives Forward rate agreement (FRA): Interest rate swap: Interest rate forward contract in which the rate to be paid or received on a specific obligation for a set period of time, beginning at some time in the future, is determined at contract initiation. Agreement to exchange periodic payments related to interest rates on a single currency; can be fixed for floating, or floating for floating based on different indices. This group includes those swaps whose notional principal is amortised according to a fixed schedule independent of interest rates.

Interest rate option:

Option contract that gives the right to pay or receive a specific interest rate on a predetermined principal for a set period of time.

2.3.3. Specific definitions for equity and stock index derivatives Equity forward: Equity swap: Contract to exchange an equity or equity basket at a set price at a future date. Contract in which one or both payments are linked to the performance of equities or an equity index (eg S&P 500). It involves the exchange of one equity or equity index return for another and the exchange of an equity or equity index return for a floating or fixed interest rate. Option contract that gives the right to deliver or receive a specific equity or equity basket at an agreed price at an agreed time in the future.

Equity option:

2.3.4. Specific definitions for commodity derivatives Commodity forward: Commodity swap: Forward contract to exchange a commodity or commodity index at a set price at a future date. Contract with one or both payments linked to the performance of a commodity price or a commodity index. It involves the exchange of the return on one commodity or commodity index for another and the exchange of a commodity or commodity index for a floating or fixed interest rate. Option contract that gives the right to deliver or receive a specific commodity or commodity index at an agreed price at a set date in the future.

Commodity option:

Non-plain vanilla products are in principle separated into their plain vanilla components. If this is not feasible, then the OTC options section takes precedence in the instrument classification, so that any product with an embedded option is reported as an OTC option. All other OTC products are reported in the forwards and swaps section. 2.4 Counterparties and elimination of double-counting

Reporting institutions are requested to provide for each instrument in the foreign exchange, interest rate, equity and credit derivatives risk categories a breakdown of contracts by counterparty as follows: reporting dealers, other financial institutions and non-financial customers. Reporting dealers: Institutions whose head office is located in one of the 11 reporting countries (Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States) 7 and which participate in the semiannual OTC derivatives market statistics; in addition, reporting dealers include all branches and subsidiaries of these entities worldwide; reporting dealers will mainly be commercial and investment banks and securities houses, including their branches and subsidiaries and other entities that are active dealers. Other financial institutions: Financial institutions not classified as reporting dealers, including central counterparties (CCPs), banks, funds and non-bank financial institutions

From December 2011, Australia and Spain are expected to contribute to the semiannual survey, bringing to 13 the number of reporting countries.

OTC derivatives market activity, first half 2011

which may be considered as financial end users (eg mutual funds, pension funds, hedge funds, currency funds, money market funds, building societies, leasing companies, insurance companies and central banks). In the specific case of the credit default swaps, the counterparty item other financial institutions is broken further down into the following subcategories: Banks and securities firms: smaller commercial banks, investment banks and securities houses that do not participate in the survey. Central counterparties (CCPs): entities that interpose themselves between counterparties to contracts traded in one or more financial markets, becoming the buyer to every seller and the seller to every buyer. 8 Insurance firms (including pension funds 9 ), reinsurance and financial guaranty firms. Special purpose vehicles, special purpose corporations and special purpose entities: legal entities that are established for the sole purpose of carrying out single transactions, such as in the context of asset securitisation through the issuance of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities. Hedge funds: mainly unregulated investment funds that typically hold long or short positions in commodity and financial instruments in many different markets according to a predetermined investment strategy and that may be highly leveraged. Other financial customers: all remaining financial institutions that are not listed above. In practice, they are mainly mutual funds.

Non-financial customer: Any counterparty other than those described above, in practice mainly corporate firms and governments. Elimination of inter-dealer double-counting Double-counting arises because transactions between two reporting entities are recorded by each of them, ie twice. In order to derive meaningful measures of overall market size, it is therefore necessary to halve the data on transactions between reporting dealers. To allow for this, reporters are asked to identify and report separately deals contracted with other reporters. The following methods of adjustment are applied for the three different types of data (see Section 2.1) collected in the survey: (1) Amounts outstanding data: double-counting is eliminated by deducting half of the amount reported under the counterparty category reporting dealers. (2) Gross market values: the gross negative market value of contracts with other reporting dealers is subtracted from the total gross market value data in order to obtain the adjusted aggregates. (3) Gross credit exposures: similarly to the adjustment performed for the gross market values, the gross negative credit exposures, ie liabilities, vis--vis other reporting dealers are subtracted from the total gross credit exposures in order to correct the reported aggregates for inter-dealer double-counting.

The CCPs that are currently serving or have plans to serve the CDS market are: Eurex Credit Clear, ICE Clear Europe and LCH.Clearnet SA in Europe; CME CMDX and ICE Trust US in North America; and Japan Securities Clearing Corporation and Tokyo Financial Exchange in Japan. As a general rule, pension funds are included under insurance firms. However, if they do not offer saving schemes involving an element of risk-sharing linked to life expectancy, they are more akin to mutual funds and are therefore included under other financial customers.

OTC derivatives market activity, first half 2011

Effect of central clearing activities on the statistics A central counterparty (CCP) is an entity that interposes itself between counterparties to contracts traded in one or more financial markets, becoming the buyer to every seller and the seller to every buyer. When a derivatives contract between two reporting dealers is cleared by a CCP, this contract is replaced, in an operation called novation, by two new contracts: one between counterparty A and the CCP, and a second between the CCP and counterparty B. As the BIS data record all outstanding positions, it would capture both the contracts in this example. This measure of the market size, ie a measure that captures all outstanding contracts, may be appropriate for gauging counterparty risk, given that any outstanding contract could potentially be defaulted on. However, this approach overstates the size of the derivatives market if used to proxy other aspects, such as the transfer of underlying risks, for which a single counting of the centrally cleared contracts would be more appropriate. 2.5 Maturities

A breakdown by remaining contract maturity is provided for foreign exchange contracts (including gold), interest rate contracts, equity-linked contracts and CDS notional amounts outstanding, according to the following bands: one year or less over one year and up to five years over five years

In the case of transactions where the first leg has not come due, the remaining maturity of each leg should be determined as the difference between the reporting date and the settlement or due date, respectively, of the near- and far-end legs of the transaction. For CDS, the remaining contract maturity is to be determined by the difference between the reporting date and the expiry date for the contract and not by the date of execution of the deal. 2.6 Rating (for credit default swaps)

A breakdown by rating is available for credit default swaps. The current rating for any contract is used and not the rating at inception. The categories used are those provided by the major rating companies. If no public ratings are available, reporters have been requested to use their internal ratings. Data are available for the following rating categories: investment grade (AAABBB) upper investment grade (AAA and AA) lower investment grade (A and BBB) below investment grade (BB and below) non-rated

If a CDS contract refers to a specific underlying reference asset for which several public ratings are available, the lower of the two highest is used. However, if the CDS contract specifies merely a corporate name (or country) as the underlying credit rather than a specific reference obligation, reporters are allowed to report the internal credit rating that meets their business requirements.

OTC derivatives market activity, first half 2011

For single-name instruments, the rating of the underlying reference obligation(s) is used. For rated multi-name instruments, the rating of the contract (entire basket, portfolio, or index) is used. If the portfolio or basket underlying a multi-name instrument is unrated or not available, then it is recommended that the contract be allocated to (1) investment grade if all underlying contracts are investment grade, and to (2) below investment grade if the underlying reference entities are sub-investment grade. An instrument is classified as non-rated only if (1) it does not have any rating and (2) it is not possible or very burdensome to classify the contract based on the ratings of the underlying reference entities. 2.7 Sector of the reference entity (for credit default swaps)

A breakdown is provided for credit default swaps by economic sector of the obligor of the underlying reference obligation (reference entity) as follows: Sovereigns: Restricted to a countrys central, state or local government, excluding publicly owned financial or non-financial firms. Non-sovereign, of which: o Financial firms: all categories of financial institution, including commercial and investment banks, securities houses, mutual funds, hedge funds and money market funds, building societies, leasing companies, insurance companies and pension funds. Non-financial firms: all categories of institution other than financial firms and sovereigns (as defined above). Securitised products, ie portfolio or structured products: CDS contracts, written on a securitised product or a combination of securitised products, ie asset-backed securities (ABS) or mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The reference entity of these types of contract is not the securitised product itself, ie the ABS or the MBS, but the individual securities or loans that were used to construct it. From this perspective, these contracts are classified as multiname rather than single-name instruments. Hence, by default, all CDS contracts written on securitised products are classified as multi-name instruments. CDS on asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities CDS on other securitised products (including collateralised debt obligations)

Multisectors: CDS on other than securitised products where the reference entities belong to different sectors (such as in the case of basket credit default swaps).

Location of the counterparty (for credit default swaps)

A breakdown by nationality of the counterparty (ie on an ultimate risk basis) is provided for CDS notional amounts outstanding. o Home country: trades with counterparties with head office incorporated in reporters home country (reporting dealers and non-reporting counterparties in home country). Abroad: trades with counterparties abroad: 10 (reporting dealers and nonreporting counterparties abroad).

Data on total notional amounts outstanding, gross market value and gross credit exposure are shown on a net basis, ie transactions between reporting dealers are counted only once. The definitions of notional amounts outstanding, gross market value and gross credit exposure are available under section 2 of the statistical notes. 2 Sources: FOW TRADEdata; Futures Industry Association; various futures and options exchanges. 3 Single currency contracts only. 4 Adjustments for double-counting partly estimated. 5 See Tables 4 to 8. 6 Includes foreign exchange, interest rate, equity, commodity and credit derivatives of non-reporting institutions, based on the latest Triennial Central Bank Survey of Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Market Activity, in 2010. 7 Before 2011, excludes CDS contracts for all countries except the United States. 8 Excludes commodity contracts.
