7 Fair Value Guidance 6
8 Fair Value Guidance Fair Value guidance comes from many places SEC Center for Audit Quality, AICPA Fair Value PCAOB FASB 7
9 Defining Fair Value What is Fair Value? 8
10 Flurry of Recent Fair Value Guidance SFAS 157 Fair Value Measurements Issued September 2006 Center for Audit Quality White Paper Fair Value in Illiquid Markets October 2007 PCAOB Staff Audit Practice Alert December 2007 SEC Guidance SEC/FASB Joint Press Release Clarifications on Fair Value Accounting September 2008 FASB FSP Determining Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active October
11 FAS 157 Definition of Fair Value Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Exit price: Not necessarily the price paid for an asset (for example), which is an entry price Market participants: Buyers and sellers that are independent, knowledgeable, able, and willing. Skepticism of a risk averse buyer. Fair value should reflect how market participants would value the asset, even if market participants would use the asset differently than the owner s intended use. 10
12 What is FAS 157? Aimed at improving the consistency, comparability and transparency of fair value measurements: Establishing a single authoritative definition of fair value ( exit price ) Establishing a framework for measuring fair value Expanding fair value financial statement disclosure requirements No new fair value measurement requirements, simply codified the meaning of fair value under GAAP 11
13 Fair Value Hierarchy Level 1 Inputs Fair value based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Exchange Traded Securities, U.S. Treasury Securities, G7 Government Securities Broker Quote in an Active Market Exchange Traded Derivatives Level 2 Inputs Inputs are directly or indirectly observable inputs (e.g. prices for similar instruments) Evaluated price based on a model Inputs are observable (spreads, ratings, credit analysis, industry and company performance) Forward Currency Contracts, Senior Debt, Municipal Bonds Level 3 Inputs Inputs are unobservable and reflect the entity s own assumptions about assumptions that market participants would use, including assumptions about risk. Internally developed assumptions Private Equity Investments, Subordinated Debt, Structure Products, Long Dated Currency SWAPs, Halted Securities 12
14 Challenges of FAS 157 Implementation Determining overall measure levels when many different types of inputs are used (i.e. 1, 2 and 3) Defining active market in relation to level 1 MD&A discussion (SEC Dear CFO Letter ) Systems limitations Roll Forward disclosure of Level 3 Securities Understanding valuation methods and inputs used by pricing vendors and brokers Impact of single source securities and stale prices Ongoing Administration Monitoring thousands of security types Completeness of disclosure Ensuring communication among different support groups 13
15 Center for Audit Quality Center For Audit Quality Fair Value White Paper Issued October 9, 2007 Discuss issues associated with the measurement of fair value under existing generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the context of illiquid (or less liquid) market conditions that currently exist in many segments of the credit markets 14
16 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board What is PCAOB Staff Audit Practice Alert No. 2? Auditing Fair Value Measurements Interaction with FAS 157 Using the work of a specialist Use of a pricing service The Alert States if the price is not based on quoted prices from an active market or observable inputs (such as prices for similar assets), the auditor should obtain an understanding of the model and evaluate whether the assumptions are reasonable. Use of pricing service and broker quotes present various challenges 15
17 Securities & Exchange Commission Guidance Investment Company Act of 1940 Additional SEC Guidance 1969, ASR 113 (Restricted Securities) 1970, ASR 118 (General Valuation Guidelines) 1999, No Action Letter (Emergency or Unusual Situations) 2001, No Action Letter (Foreign Securities) 2002, Lori Richards (Best Practices Speech) Recent Guidance July 22, 2008, Dear CCO Compliance Alert SEC Speeches, Sweep Exams September 30, 2008 SEC/FASB Clarifications on Fair Value Accounting 16
18 SEC / FASB Joint Press Release SEC / FASB React To Credit Crisis Can management s internal assumptions (e.g., expected cash flows) be used to measure fair value when relevant market does not exist? How should the use of market quotes (e.g., broker quotes or information from a pricing service) be considered when assessing the mix of information available to measure fair value? Are transactions that are determined to be disorderly representative of fair value? When is a distressed (disorderly) sale indicative of fair value? Can transactions in an inactive market affect fair value measurements? What factors should be considered in determining whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired? 17
19 FASB Staff Position Proposed FSP on FAS 157 Released Same Themes from the Joint Press Release FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for that Asset Is Not Active How management s Internal assumptions are considered when observable data does not exist Observable market data in an inactive market How market quotes should be used in determining fair value 18
20 Oversight of Valuation Function Step 1 Establish roles and responsibilities over the valuation function Step 7: Revise elements of valuation function as warranted Step 2: Determine, assess and enhance the appropriateness of the valuation policies and procedures and gain approval Step 6: Perform oversight and monitoring activities Step 3: Determine the appropriate sources (pricing services, brokers, management,etc.) for valuations Step 5: Establish level and frequency of oversight and monitor activities Step 4: Assess the controls over the valuation function 20
21 Valuation Procedures (External Source) Use price Perform back-testing Yes Evaluate results Yes Validate price Are results satisfactory? Consider need to revise policies & procedures External Source Is the source capable of providing a price today? Yes No Is it an exchangetraded security? Identify another external source & restart process No Gain understanding of how price was determined: -Active market? -Liquid market? - Observable inputs? Compare to other sources Consider issuer and security specific data Consider general market data Evaluate source s methodology Compare to internal model No Identify additional sources and restart process Use internal source & move to Internal Source diagram) Consider revising policies & procedures Use internal source & move to Internal Source diagram 21
22 Valuation Procedures (Internal Source) Continue to use internal process as necessary Yes Does methodology conform to policies & procedures? Yes Use price Perform backtesting Are results satisfactory? Yes Consider need to revise policies & procedures Internal Source Is the source capable of providing a fair value estimate? Are assumptions valid and appropriate? No Request and obtain revised fair value estimate. Move to Yes above No Revise fair value methodology Consider need to revise policies & procedures No Obtain appropriate assistance to move to Yes above 22
