20 Bottom line There is a very significant risk of a large tail event from Europe Even if it doesn t materialize right away, fluctuations in the fear that it might, has become a core market factor Unfortunately, old fashioned global and sectoral diversification no longer offers good risk-control options It may be the time to buy systemic insurance! if we can find it Page 20
21 THE SHORTAGE OF MACRO- INSURANCE IS ACUTE Page 21
22 The Safe Asset Shortage Page 22
23 QE is reducing supply Page 23
24 Real Rates Have Collapsed Page 24
25 Bye-bye Rates Hedge (10y Tsy) Page 25
26 Bye-bye CHF Hedge Page 26
27 Bye-bye JPY Hedge Page 27
28 Taking stock Significant tail risk from Europe No easy place to hide Correlations are very high Fewer producers of AAA and defensive assets Dangerous negative skewness in natural defensive trades In this world LTRO/SMP make sense in some instances, QE/TWIST less so Page 28
29 A Model and Some Policy Implications PART II Page 29
30 Reference Model (no Knightians) Page 30
31 Knightians and Safe Assets Page 31
32 Equilibrium Interest Rates Page 32
33 An Investment Margin Page 33
34 Public Debt Page 34
35 Bullish and Bearish Assets Reinterpretation: No safe asset but there are Bullish and Bearish assets, such that putting together one of each yields a safe asset Suppose that ρ now represents the amount of Bearish assets, which is much smaller than the amount of Bullish assets Then we get the same results as above. In particular, if ρ drops, the spread widens and risky assets sell off Page 35
36 QE/Twist Page 36
37 QE/Twist Page 37
38 QE/Twist and Safe Assets Short term debt: safe asset Long term debt: Bearish asset Operation Twist / QE has drawbacks: Twist increases the supply of safe assets But it reduces the supply of Bearish assets Page 38
39 Redemption Fund Page 39
40 ERF and Safe Assets Redemption fund Member states transfer debt exceeding 60% to ERF, which takes some new collateral and issues jointly guaranteed debt. It is a sinking fund Model: Tranching increases supply of safe assets (2.5 trillion euros right away) and lowers r Of course US rates and other safe heavens could see a rise Page 40
41 Credit Policies QE1 BOE / UK Treasury newly announced Sterling Liquidity Facility to foster risky investment Model: Increase demand for risky asset lowers r and increases investment Caveat: As long as the govt doesn t generate risky debt as a result of the funding Page 41
42 Final Remarks The European crisis is very far from over The risk of a global systemic shock is too high for comfort This situation has exacerbated a shortage of assets that already caused severe distortions before the subprime crisis In is central to take into consideration this shortage when thinking about macro/financial policy Page 42
