1 CIPM Experts Review Course Reading: Measuring Investment s of Portfolios Containing Futures and Options Futures Overview Agreement to exchange an asset at a specified price and time in the future. No initial exchange of money. Traded on public exchanges, so terms are standardized, and settlement is guaranteed. Collateral is posted to enter into the agreement. Price changes are marked to market on a daily basis, and difference will be moved between collateral accounts, so the value of the contract remains zero. Futures use a notional value, which equals the price of a new contract times a contract multiplier. 1

2 Notional Adjustments for Futures Assume a portfolio with $1,000,000 in stock, and $400,000 in cash. Additionally, $200,000 in futures ($ ) are purchased by depositing $200,000 in a margin account.

Additionally, $4,000 in dividends and $2,400 in money market interest is received. Finally, $1,200 is received for income on the cash component of the notional stock position. Beg.

5 Options Overview Give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to execute a specified transaction, at a specified price, at some point in the future. American style options can be executed at any point until the expiration date. European style option can only be executed on the expiration date. Call options give the right to buy a security, and Put options give the right to sell a security. Options are the classic case of buying and selling insurance. Options Overview The value of the option changes with the value of the underlying asset, but the change is asymmetric. Sensitivity to the price of the underlying is measured by Delta Options deep out of the money may have little correlation to the underlying (δ 0.0). Options deep in the money may have perfect correlation to the underlying (δ 1.0). Options at the money will be about half (δ 0.5). 5

6 Accounting for options Full Exposure Method: Incorporates hedge ratios for each individual option More useful for attribution Most accurate Partial Exposure Method: Only option value is used in notional market value. Simpler, does not require knowledge of individual positions. Notional Adjustments for Options Beginning of Period Facts: $1,000,000 in stock $400,000 in cash Purchase $4,000 ($4 1,000) in call options Strike price of $100 Hedge ratio is 0.5. Beg.
