Derivatives linked to Fix Used for index-creation (MSCI) Evaluation of international portfolios etc. Osler & Turnbull FX fix
3 Fix institutions Fix orders: No risk, no transaction cost, for customers Customers incentive: Minimize tracking errors in portfolios. End-of month portfolio evaluations: Huge fix-orders This paper: Model trading behavior before the fix. Free-riding or Banging? Free-riding: Trade early (and cheap) Banging: Trade a lot within the fix-window Concave vs. Convex price path before fix Osler & Turnbull FX fix
4 Convex or Concave Price Path? Figure 1: Exchange Rate Dynamics Around the London 4 pm Fix Mean price path from 6 minutes before to 6 minutes after the London 4 pm fix using tick-by-tick quotes from Reuters Dealing, and interbank trading platform, for USD EURUSD, USDCHF, USD.

12 Naïve perspectives Fix orders are for free for customers, but imply risk for dealers: How to cover the cost? No cost: trade all within fix-window! buy and sell at fix, but can t explain excess trading and post-fix reversal Trade sufficiently to move fix so that make a return (excess trading). Both pre-trading, volatility at fix, and reversal. But what are the quantities? And: But who is on the other side! Osler & Turnbull FX fix
13 Is it a big problem? Size of fix-orders? 1% of fin.volume end-of-month,.1% else? Overvaluation: Say 2% end-of-month,.2% else? Cost: USD bn 1 in 27! Fines so far? $ bn7.5 ($ bn1.7; bn2.5; mio85; bn1.2; 1bn.) Osler & Turnbull FX fix
14 How much excess trading? I Figure 1: Exchange Rate Dynamics Around the London 4 pm Fix Mean price path from 6 minutes before to 6 minutes after the London 4 pm fix using tick-by-tick quotes from Reuters Dealing, and interbank trading platform, for USD EURUSD, USDCHF, USD.

All Figure: series are indexed Prices to 1 at 3:45 pm. around Declining prices the have trends fix reversed for the average EUR :3 15:45 16: 16: :3 15:45 16: 16: CHF :3 15:45 16: 16: : : : :15
15 bigger price reversals than on average across all end-of-mo How much (see, e.g., excess CHF/USD). trading? II Figure: Prices aroundfigure the fix 4: Rate Paths Aroun EUR/USD /USD 25
16 Modeling Fix is very hard! Dealer behavior? Risk management vs. profit-seeking? Numbers are not clear Price impact? Flow is (may be) predictable: Should it have price impact at all? Who is on the other side of the trades? Why any? Apparently many, but Price Impact high as well Collusion: Difficult: Credible? How to punish deviations? Did Bandits Club accomplish anything? Osler & Turnbull FX fix
17 Summary: Main contributions A very thorugh discussion on dealer incentives Special focus on pre-trading: Free-riding vs. Banging the close Excess trading Concavity vs. Convexity in pre-trade price path Interesting, but would better with Trading data I would like to see more on the post-fix price evolution I learned a lot. Recommend reading. Osler & Turnbull FX fix
