1 From LIBOR to SOFR: An Unexpected Journey An update on the transition from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate Garret Sloan, CFA Head of Short-term Fixed Income Market Strategy Wells Fargo Securities
2 The Problem with LIBOR The interbank offered rates (collectively, LIBOR) underpin more than $350 trillion of financial products. LIBOR is a widely utilized benchmark that is no longer derived from a widely traded market. WHY? Basel III: Pushes banks away from short-term unsecured funding. Financial crisis: Banks stopped lending to each other. Manipulation: To conceal borrowing costs and bolster trading profits. The USD LIBOR Footprint ~$200 trillion in asset exposures $145T OTC Swaps, options, Forwards, cross-currency Panel Banks: Concerns about panel-bank participation beyond In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it will not compel banks to provide LIBOR submissions beyond Exchange Options Forwards $45T Various regulators, including members of the Fed and the CFTC, continue to encourage market participants to adopt alternative rates. $5T Loans Syndicated, CRE Residential, Consumer Bonds FRNs Securitizations $4T 1) Source: Federal Reserve Second Report of the Alternative Reference Rates Committee.

3 LIBOR Transition Background ARRC Mandate In 2014, the Federal Reserve Board convened the Alternative Reference Rate Committee to explore alternatives for replacing USD LIBOR as a benchmark rate in the U.S. The ARRC was convened to address the following: Objectives 1 2 Identify best practices for alternative reference rates Identify best practices for contract robustness to ensure contracts are resilient to the possible cessation of USD LIBOR In March 2018, the ARRC was reconstituted to: 1, 2 Include a broader representation of the financial market and establish working groups to address regulatory, legal, tax and accounting issues Ensure successful implementation of the paced transition plan Coordinate planning across cash/derivatives products 3 4 Develop an adoption plan that identifies factors that would either facilitate or impede the adoption of the alternative reference rates Create an implementation plan with metrics of success and a timeline 1 Source: ARRC's Website 2 Source: IBOR Global Benchmark Transition Report, June ARRC Members Banks/Dealers: Exchanges: Asset Managers: Insurance: GSE/SSA: Associations: Ex Officio Members CFPB FDIC FRB New York U.S. Treasury Fed Reserve CFTC SEC FHFA OCC OFR From LIBOR to SOFR An Unexpected Journey 3 Wells Fargo Securities
4 Rates LIBOR/ SOFR Basis (bps) Goodbye USD-LIBOR, Hello SOFR Overview In June 2017, the ARRC identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as its preferred alternative for USD LIBOR o Secured: Based on trades in the triparty, cleared bilateral, and certain DVP Treasury repo markets. o Overnight: The repo rates used are overnight and reflect borrowing for one business day o Financing Rate: The rate represents secured funding costs for financial institutions pledging Treasury collateral Average SOFR has been less volatile than LIBOR Average Daily Volumes in U.S. Money Markets ($bn) 1 Historical Rates $800 $ % 60 $700 $600 $500 $400 Liquid market of approximately $750 billion in daily volume % 2.00% 1.50% $300 $200 $100 $- SOFR $197 O/N Bank Funding $79 Effect.

6 Alternative Reference Rate SOFR USD LIBOR vs. SOFR USD LIBOR is published in seven maturities from overnight to 12-months, and incorporates a credit risk premium. SOFR is an overnight, secured rate with no credit risk premium.

9 SOFR Considerations Term SOFR Creation and Administration of Term SOFR Forward-looking term rates have maturities longer than one business day. The ARRC expects to create a one and three month term SOFR by the end of Term SOFR would be administered by a private entity such as ICE/IBA (not FRBNY). Term SOFR will be based upon an agreed quantitative model which utilizes market values of derivatives referencing SOFR. Models would interpolate future daily SOFR primarily using one and three month futures contracts Models make assumptions about rate movements at future FOMC meeting dates While most market participants will trade SOFR products, some commercial end users may use Term SOFR once it exists because of systems that were built for rates known in advance Important Caveats Term SOFR is not currently a viable solution to LIBOR cessation; Term SOFR does not exist today. The SOFR derivatives market will need to be highly robust to create Term SOFR, with a significantly larger volume of transactions referencing the overnight rate. Parties that use Term SOFR will need to understand how to use overnight SOFR The majority of hedges used to fix Term SOFR investments will reference overnight SOFR Term SOFR will not contain any term lending premiums / will not embed bank credit risk Term SOFR will not be based on term repo rates. It will reference future expected overnight rates From LIBOR to SOFR An Unexpected Journey 9 Wells Fargo Securities
10 Increasing Contractual Robustness Contractual fallback language was often originally intended to address the temporary unavailability of LIBOR instead of a permanent cessation As a result, fallback language in many contracts may not produce a commercially reasonable result ISDA is working on developing new fallback language for derivatives that reference the standard ISDA definitional booklet The ARRC is working on developing new fallback language for cash products In general, fallback language has three components: 1. Trigger events: Define the circumstances under which references to LIBOR in a contract will be replaced with an alternative reference rate 2. Replacement benchmark: Identify the rate, or waterfall of rates, that would replace LIBOR following a trigger event 3. Spread adjustment: An adjustment needed to the replacement rate because SOFR and other alternative reference rates ( ARRs ) are fundamentally different from LIBOR Adjustments are intended to ensure contracts continue to function as closely as possible to what was initially intended by the parties and are designed to minimize any potential transfer of value between the parties when the fallback takes effect Consistent treatment across markets upon a LIBOR cessation will reduce operational, legal and basis risk (particularly where derivatives are used to hedge interest rate risk in cash products) From LIBOR to SOFR An Unexpected Journey 10 Wells Fargo Securities
11 Increasing Contractual Robustness ISDA is conducting a series of market consultations on issues related to new fallback language for derivatives to inform decisions about adjustments: Term Adjustment: necessary because LIBOR has a term structure (ARRs do not) Spread Adjustment: necessary because LIBOR is unsecured and incorporates bank credit risk premium (ARRs do not) It is expected that the derivatives fallback rates (including both Term Adjustment and Spread Adjustment) will be available via a third party vendor (e.g., Bloomberg screens) Results of the initial ISDA Consultation published on December 20, 2018 (non USD LIBOR): Term Adjustment Compounded Setting in Arrears Rate: The Alternative Reference Rate observed over the relevant IBOR tenor and compounded daily during that period Spread Adjustment Historical Mean/Median Approach: Mean or median spot spread between the relevant IBOR and the Alternative Reference Rate calculated over a specified period (i.e., 5 or 10 years) The ARRC is also conducting market consultations related to new fallbacks for USD LIBOR cash products (securitizations, business loans, floating rate notes) ARRC fallback provisions differ in some respects from ISDA s fallback language to address differences between cash products and derivatives. Loan fallbacks include a flexible Amendment Approach option Hardwired Approach falls back first to a Forward-looking Term SOFR (but only if Term SOFR is robust enough to be endorsed by the ARRC) Second in the waterfall is Compounded SOFR Setting in Arrears Like ISDA, the ARRC fallback language for cash products includes a Spread Adjustment to the fallback rate, which may be the ISDA Spread Adjustment (unless the ARRC decides it is not suitable for cash products) From LIBOR to SOFR An Unexpected Journey 11 Wells Fargo Securities
