1 Small but exciting ARMbacked bond auction Nordea Research, 11 August 2015 Anders Skytte Aalund Nykredit is the first Danish mortgage lender to start auctions of ARM-backed covered bonds next Monday. This will not be a particularly large auction, only around DKK 100bn. Yet with the considerable uncertainty over the pace and sequence of the Danish central bank s normalisation of monetary policy, the auction will be very exciting. Looking at Nordea Kredit s bonds, 34% of its bonds do not meet the LCR requirement. What implications will this have? We do not have final amounts from DLR and BRFkredit yet, but it is clear that the auction will see low refinancing percentages in 1-year ARM-backed bonds. Nordea Kredit has halved its volume of 1-year bonds from just over DKK 20bn to just over DKK 10bn, whereas Nykredit has reduced its volume from DKK 64bn to almost DKK 41bn. With S&P s comments in July (Nykredit and DLR still too reliant on short funding), it is also essential that especially Nykredit succeeds in moving some 1-year borrowers to longer-term funding. Expiry and final volumes Strong spread widening since May Spreads to government bonds have seen a considerable widening since yields rose sharply in May. Notably longerdated ARM-backed bonds have underperformed sharply and they have been pushed cheaper by the massive OAS widening of callables. Spread to DGBs generic 1Y, 3Y and 5Y ARM-backed bonds
2 The same pattern is evident versus swaps, which means that the roll and the excess carry of long-dated ARM-backed bonds have improved. ASW to 3M swaps generic 1Y, 3Y and 5Y ARM-backed bonds Where to find value? Initially the sweet spot is the 2-3-year point, which also offers better time value than longer-dated ARM-backed bonds (see table below). If repos become a scarce factor (this has been the case previously and could also be the case in future), the calculation could be too simple. A scenario in which repo lines become a scarce factor could boost demand for longerdated ARM-backed bonds offering a return that is higher per Danish krone invested.
3 Pick-up per unit of risk for hedged ARM-backed bonds with repo financing (repo=-27 bp) The table also shows that a hedge using EUR swaps offers higher carry than a hedge using DKK swaps. For example, the carry of a 3-year ARM-backed bond hedged by a EUR 3M swap increases to 32.3 versus 17.1 if hedged by a DKK 3M swap, that is, almost double the carry. But it is obviously more risky to construct a hedge using EUR swaps instead of DKK swaps. The 3M CIBOR-EURIBOR spread is nearly 15 bp higher in six months time based on the forward curves. This fits quite well with our expectations for the Danish central bank. Once the central bank starts raising rates and/or lowering the current account limits, it will no doubt affect the entire curve. We are thus not convinced that it is worth going for the higher carry as there are many uncertain factors regarding the central bank and the impact on the curve. CIBOR and EURIBOR 3M spot and forward
4 The sweet spot for buying without a hedge is also initially the 2-3-year point. With the uncertainty over the pace and sequence of the central bank s policy normalisation, staying unhedged involves considerable risk just as is the case with a EUR hedge. In addition, the central bank s normalisation will impact the repo rate upwards. This adds risk for investors who buy with repo financing and unhedged as the repo is not matched by the short leg of the swap. Pick-up per unit of risk for unhedged purchase including and excluding repo financing Callables have lost a lot, but 5-year ARM-backed bonds are just as attractive Rising yields hit callables harder than 5-year ARM-backed bonds. Conversely, the excess spread on callables versus 5-year ARM-backed bonds is at the same level as in August last year. In the intervening period investors have acknowledged that the real risk of callables is somewhat higher than indicated by the BPV. Therefore investors must also demand a substantial premium to buy callables, especially those with considerable negative convexity. Spread performance 2.5%47, 3%47 and 5Y ARMbacked bonds vs 6M swaps
5 Many investors use horizon returns to value bonds. Here it is worth noting that since early May the excess return on callables has not increased even though the OAS has widened far more than the ASW of ARM-backed bonds. The main reason is that the curve has steepened the most at the short end, benefiting the carry of ARM-backed bonds, whereas the shape of the curve from 15 years and beyond has not changed significantly. We are relatively neutral in choosing between callables and 5-year ARM-backed bonds. 6M horizon returns on 5Y ARM-backed bonds and duration-neutral callables now and 1 May Below we have illustrated the LCR status of the bonds to be sold at the auction. On a volume-weighted basis, 34% of Nordea Kredit s bonds do not fulfil the Level 1b requirement. The position of Nykredit is better, with only 4% of the bonds failing to qualify. However, the LCR requirement is by no means the only requirement determining success or failure. Several other factors make the sale of so many separate security IDs problematic.
6 As we argue in the research note referenced in the link above, we think investors should demand a higher return on these small series. Nordea Kredit, Nykredit and BRF bonds by LCR status after auctions 1-year ARM-backed bonds swapped to USD Although pressures on the Danish krone have abated somewhat, the value of the combined package for USD investors is still 100 bp, 40 bp more than a 1-year USD swap. Note that with the US yield rise in recent months, the added value is, all else equal, not quite as attractive as before the summer. Value of 1Y ARM-backed bonds with 1Y Fx fwd to USD
