Finance is a Key Sector of the Domestic Economy

              •   South Africa has a world class financial
                  sector which accounts for around 20% of
                  GDP and provides employment for 12%
                  of the formal sector’s (non-agri)
                  employed
              •   In value terms, the stock market is
                  greater than the country’s total economy,
                  reflecting a high degree of financialisation
              •   The GFC of 2008-2009 has ushered in a
                  massive overhaul of financial regulation,
                  affecting banks, exchanges, CCPs,
                  CSDPs etc.

 •   Foreign investors’ appetite for EM bonds after the GFC has been reflected on the JSE by strong net inflows into this
     market. However, recently, these flows have wavered and there has been a moderate shift towards a preference for
     shares.

 •   Portfolio inflows are at risk in the short-term for as long as speculation of an easing in QE continues to drive market
     sentiment.                                                                                                    www.jse.co.za

      the credit risk each party faces by becoming the counterparty to each trade

CCPs in the spotlight

   CCPs are seen as systemically important and if ineffective, they could be a source for
                         contagion, financial shocks and default

• 2008 Global Financial Crisis highlighted gaps in financial institutions risk management
• However, it also highlighted the important role that CCPs play in reducing trading risks:
          Lehman Brothers’ entire derivative book that was cleared through LCH
          Clearnet (a CCP) was successfully unwound and any losses absorbed by
          the clearing house’s risk management controls
• Financial regulators focus widened from banks (e.g. Basel 2/3) to include CCPs
  (CPSS-IOSCO, ESMA)
• CPSS-IOSCO requires a CCP to have sufficient financial resources to cover credit
  exposures in extreme yet plausible market conditions
                                                                                 www.jse.co.za

Nothing new...CCP failures prior to the 2008 crisis

Caisse de Liquidation    France       1974       • Steep rise in sugar prices attracted speculative investors, who were caught out by a
                                                   sharp correction, leading to inability to meet margin calls
                                                 • CCP failed to increase margin in response to greater market volatility
                                                 • Lack of coordination between clearing house and exchange

Commodity Clearing                               • CCP slow to respond to market conditions – 12 day delay between market crash and
House                                              broker default
                                                 • Lack of management experience and coordination among market participants

                                                   responsible for risk management, but was not exposed to losses
                                                 • CCP did not increase margin despite sharp growth in trading volumes

                                                 • Margin and default funds insufficient as banks were beyond BM&F operational
                                                   limits, and margin stress tests were inadequate for major move

South African CCP: Safcom

• In South Africa, all exchange-traded derivative
  trades are cleared through Safcom, a wholly
  owned subsidiary of the JSE
• Safcom thereby mitigates systemic risk in the
  South African exchange-traded derivatives
  market, as it reduces the risk of a single default
  impacting other counterparties and thereby
  contaminating the market
• Imperative that Safcom’s risk management
  practices are of the highest standards and its
  financial safeguards quantified as accurately as
  possible
• Equities are cleared by the JSE – potential exists to move to CCP model

Creditworthiness of the CCP: Safcom

Safcom mitigates its risk through the following measures:
1. Entry requirements to becoming a clearing member (financial and capital adequacy
     requirements)
2. Collateral for each trade that is cleared – initial and variation margin
3. A default fund, to which all clearing members must contribute, that can be accessed
     to cover losses suffered as the result of one clearing member defaulting
4. Fidelity fund – for isolated and limited circumstances

In addition:
• Back testing
• Stress testing
• Default ‘fire drills’
• Safcom risk waterfall
• Risk tolerance
• Liquidity lines

CCP risk waterfall

 • A CCP’s risk waterfall defines how risk mitigants will be used in the case of a default
 • A typical CCP (and Safcom’s) risk waterfall follows a defaulter-pays model

 In the case of a default, losses are funded as follows:

Initial margin of the defaulting clearing member

      The defaulting clearing member’s contribution to the default
      fund

            CCP’s contribution to the default fund

                   Non-defaulting member’s contribution to the default fund
                                                                                   www.jse.co.za

                                               23
CCP default fund quantification

Possible alternatives to quantifying a default fund:

•   CPSS-IOSCO requires a CCP to have sufficient financial resources to cover credit
    exposures in extreme yet plausible market conditions

• Default fund must cover losses under extreme market conditions
• Therefore need measures of extreme losses, or tail-end losses

• Conditional VaR (CVaR) = the expected loss given that VaR is exceeded
• Extreme VaR (EVaR) = employ EVT for modelling losses within the tail end of a
  distribution of returns
• Stress Testing = possible losses on today’s portfolio should historic stress events
  repeat

                                                                              www.jse.co.za

       for margin
        efficiency

            www.jse.co.za

27
The search for margin efficiency

• Growing demand for collateral puts margin efficiencies in the limelight.
• Growing number of CCPs are offering initial margin offsets between OTC and
  ET derivatives.
• Margin Methodology:
  • CCPs have traditionally made use of portfolio scanning methodologies when
    determining initial margins for ET derivatives.
  • Portfolio scanning typically fails to adequately recognise the benefits of
    diversification.
  • CCPs are looking to migrate towards VaR type portfolio margining methodologies
    (Eurex call’s theirs Prisma).

                                                                                 www.jse.co.za

Unknown unkowns

• How many CCPs is right?
• Capital markets are global, regulators are national – how do we reconcile

• How do small countries manage systemic risk when much of the flows are

• How to align global regulatory trends to the national agenda?
• How much capital should a CCP hold?
