2 ecture 9: Fied-Income Portfolio Dedication and Immunization Stavros A. Zenios Operations and Information Management Department The Wharton School University of Pennsylvania Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0
3 OUTIE Portfolio Dedication Principles Portfolio Immunization Principles Mathematical Programming Models Reading: S. Zenios, Financial Optimization, pp Fabozzi, Handbook of Fied Income Securities, ch , fifth edition, 997. Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 3
4 Portfolio Dedication Fied income Asset/iability management strategy: Eample : Guaranteed Investment Contracts in the 70 s: Upward sloping yield curve 3- to 7-year 7 maturity of GICs with low interest payments Proceeds reinvested in 0- to 30-year mortgages, public bonds What happened as interest rates rose in the late 970s? Eample : Pension fund management may assume very conservative values for reinvestment opportunities. Result? Eample 3: Court settlements. How to manage such risks? CASH-FOW MATCHIG Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 4
5 Cashflow Matching Assets iabilities Time o interest rate risk. Can we achieve cashflow matching? Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 5
6 Portfolio Dedication Assets Reinvestment iabilities Time Maturing assets + Proceeds from reinvestment iabilities, at each e point in time Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 6
7 Portfolio Dedication Determining the iabilities for a Pension Fund Closed block of retirees: Very accurate estimate benefits are known (+) Only a small part of the fund s liabilities (-)( Declining stream of liabilities due to mortality Retired-lives plus terminated vested participants Broader universe of participants (+) Vested benefits are known (+) Anticipated retiree obligations Even broader universe (+) Benefits are not known with certainty (-)( iabilities increase the first years and decline thereafter Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 7
8 Portfolio Dedication Setting constraints: Restrict investments to high-quality bonds Restrictions by agency, sector, issuer (diversification of industry specific risk) Eample: Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 Quality Treasury 0 to 00% Agency 0 to 00% Sector AAA 0 to 00% AA 0 to 00% A 0 to 50% BBB 0 Treasury 0 to 00% Agency 0 to 00% Industrial 0 to 30% Utility 0 to 30% Concentration: o more than 0% in one issue of issuer 8
9 Portfolio Dedication Choosing the reinvestment rollover---rate: Assuming high rollover rate will prefund liabilities if high-yield securities are available with maturity before the liability dates Assuming low reinvestment rates leads to tighter cashflow matching, at the potential loss of portfolio yield Eample: Current actuarial practices allow 5 to 8 percent Obective function: Minimize cost of portfolio Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 9
10 Portfolio Dedication: mathematical program p : Cost (price) of security : Amount invested in security : iability obligation at period t t t :Cashflow generated from security ρ : Reinvestment rate at period t Constraint: at each period t, the cashflow received from assets + income from reinvestment the liability obligation Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 0

17 Understanding Portfolio Immunization: Interpretation of duration Effect of changing interest rates on asset value: Asset value Reinvestment gains greater than market loss Interest rates rise instantaneously to 5% 9% bond in a 9% interest rate env. 30 years bond 00 Duration Market loss greater than reinvestment gains Years Stavros A. Zenios, 5/8/0 7
