  1. De Nederlandsche Bank Eurosystem Collateral Management Framework Nynke Doornbos 3rd Macedonian Financial Sector Conference on Payments and Securities Settlement Systems Ohrid 28 June 2010

  2. Agenda • The Eurosystem collateral framework • Collateral management at the Nederlandsche Bank • Impact of turmoil on financial markets • European collateral trends • Mobilising collateral • CCBM1 → CCBM2

  3. The ESCB framework: Principles Conditions of the collateral framework → uniform eligibility criteria: • Protecting the ESCB from incurring losses in it's monetary policy operations • Volume available collateral is sufficient for effective monetary policy and smooth operation of payment system • Operations accessible to a broad set of counterparties • Equal treatment of counterparties • Enhancing operational efficiency and transparency • In accordance with principle open market economy: free competition -> efficient allocation of resources • No special or privileged treatment of public sector securities

  4. The ESCB framework: Basics • All liquidity providing credit operations of the ESCB based on adequate collateral (art. 18.1.ESCB statute) (= no cash collateral) • Collateral needed for monetary loans (MRO´s + LTRO´s) and intraday credit + other purposes (guarantees, margin obligations settlement stock exchange) • No separate collateral-lists for monetary policy purposes or payment system operations (one framework for all business lines)

  5. Single list of collateral (1) • Operational on January 2007 • Drawbacks 2-tiers list (1999-2006): heterogeneity and no transparency • 2 asset classes: • marketable assets and • non-marketable assets (no quality difference) • Marketable assets: high credit standards (single A↑), located in the euro area, denomination euro • Eurosystem accepts a very broad range of collateral (also broad range of counterparties)

  6. Single list of collateral (2) • Marketable assets: listed on regulated markets or certain accepted non-regulated markets • Non-marketable assets: credit claims and Irish non-marketable retail mortgage backed debt instruments, no market criterion • For both asset classes → Eurosystem credit assessment framework (ECAF)

  7. Eurosystem Credit Assessment Framework ECAF principles: consistency, accuracy and comparability ECAF sources: • ECAI – External Credit Assessment Institutions • ICAS – NCBs in-house credit assessment systems • IRB – counterparties internal ratings-based systems • RT – third-party providers rating tools.

  8. ECAF benchmark/threshold • ´Single A` (A-Fitch and S&P, A3 Moody´s) or • Probability of default (PD) over a one-year horizon of 0.10% Definition default stems from EU Capital Requirements Directive (CRD)

  9. To sum up (1)

  10. To sum up (2)

  11. Risk control measures Eurosystem

  12. Valuation principles • Valuation on a daily basis • Marketable assets • Define the most representative price source (market price) • Rules for non-availability of prices -> theoretical price (based on discounted cash flows) • Two hubs provide theoretical prices, Banque de France for ABS, Deutsche Bundesbank for other complex debt instruments • Non-marketable assets • Theoretical price or outstanding amount

  13. Comparison with other frameworks

  14. Comparison with other frameworks (2)

  15. Agenda • The Eurosystem collateral framework • Collateral management at the Nederlandsche Bank • Impact of turmoil on financial markets • European collateral trends • Mobilising collateral • CCBM1 → CCBM2

  16. Present collateral framework (NL) • Legal technique: pledge • Pool of collateral- total market value minus haircut (+interest) = credit line - integrated use of the collateral pool on request of credit institutions like supporting services, e.g. CCP margin and guarantees for special purposes • Legal setting credit claims: public pledge, physical delivery loan documentation, ex ante notification of debtor

  31. CCBM: developments • Increased demand till 2008 for cross-border use of collateral (2006 > 50%; 2008 > 60%) • CCBM is used in 80% of cross-border transactions

  32. Drawbacks of CCBM • Eurosystem collateral management is technically decentralised with different national procedures • Domestic level: different conditions across the euro area • Cross-border level: CCBM • Domestic/cross-border level: Different conditions for cross-border (CCBM) and domestic transfers • Not all eligible collateral is easy to deliver cross-border • Slow cross-border links • Complex model: Too many different messages per country (CSD) • Costs: • Lack of standardization • Sometimes need for predepositing

  33. Eurosystem answer : CCBM2 • Given the drawbacks in terms of harmonisation and efficiency, in July 2008 the Governing Council of the ECB decided to launch the CCBM2 project • A better organisation of the Eurosystem collateral mobilisation • Delivery of collateral, both cross border and domestic • CCBM2 will offer a harmonised and efficient solution facilitating the interaction of counterparties acting as collateral providers with the Eurosystem

  34. Press release March 8, 2007 andDecision of 17 July 2008 Governing Council decided to: • review the current Eurosystem collateral management handling procedures • develop a single IT platform for domestic and cross border collateral • based on existing system such as the one of NBB/DNB

  39. Harmonisation in NCB collateral management (1) • Cross-NCB harmonised procedures, messages and standards: • for settlement instructions, corporate actions (coupons, redemptions), statements of holdings • between NCBs and credit institutions • between NCBs and SSSs/(I)CSDs • common SWIFT-address • same SWIFT-message formats using international market standards

  40. Harmonisation in NCB collateral management (2) Impact on Central Banks • Reduce considerably testing effort • Share IT costs and development • Share business knowledge & experience • Share workload

  41. Harmonisation in NCB collateral management (3) Impact on credit institutions • Harmonisation messaging & procedures • Level playing field • Increased speed of collateral mobilisation (STP) • Real-time monitoring • Decentralised business relations remains
