Treasury&RiskMgmt-Stocks

Hi,
Please explain what is Spot, Strike, Forward prices with examples???
Regards
Blessy

Hi,
Spot is nothing but the current price, while stike price is the price which you are going to fix in your option.  Suppose you have an option between USD/EUR, then exchange rate price is spot price while the price on the exercise date for this option is the strike price.  Ultimately strike price will be price at which this option will be exercised.
Future price is nothing but the price in the case of futures contract.  A future contract is an obligation for both buyer and seller i.e one has to sell and the other has to buy.  While in the case of option, either the buyer or the seller wil have the option to buy or sell.

    Hi,
    What is the definition of "SPREAD" in terms of finance. Please explain with some examples
    Regards
    Blessy

    Spread is the difference between two similar measures  In the stock market, for example, the spread is the difference between the highest price bid and the lowest price asked.
    With fixed-income securities, such as bonds, the spread is the difference between the yields on securities having the same investment grade but different maturity dates.
    For example, if the yield on a long-term Treasury bond is 6%, and the yield on a Treasury bill is 4%, the spread is 2%.
    The spread may also be the difference in yields on securities that have the same maturity date but are of different investment quality.
    For example, there is a 3% spread between a high-yield bond paying 9% and a Treasury bond paying 6% that both come due on the same date.
    The term also refers to the price difference between two different derivatives of the same class.
    For instance, there is typically a spread between the price of the October wheat futures contract and the January wheat futures contract. Part of that spread is known as the cost of carry. However, the spread widens and narrows, caused by changes in the market -- in this case the wheat market.

    FRA is forward rate agreement. it is for  aperiod. Example is 6/9 FRA means that the period start is six months and end is 9 months. During this period you will enter an interest rate swap. Again this swap will have  a floating leg and a fixed leg. Those details will be entered in the system.

  • Treasury&RiskMgmt-Hedging

    What is meant by Fair Value Hedge and Cash flow hedge??

    Hi
    First you need to know what an hedge is
    Hedging - In finance, a hedge is a position established in one market in an attempt to offset exposure to the price risk of an equal but opposite obligation or position in another market u2014 usually, but not always, in the context of one's commercial activity. Hedging is a strategy designed to minimize exposure to such business risks as a sharp contraction in demand for one's inventory, while still allowing the business to profit from producing and maintaining that inventory.
    Fair Value Hedge
    Fair value hedges primarily relate to fixed-interest balance sheet items (eg receivables, equities or securities), which are hedged against market ...
    Cash flow hedge
    A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to the variability of cash flow that
    - is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability. Such as all or some future interest payments on variable rate debt or a highly probable forecast transaction and
    - could affect profit or loss
    Cash flow hedges are primarily taken to mean hedges against the risk associated with future interest payments from a variable-interest balance sheet transaction by means of a swap. They are measured at their fair values.

  • Treasury&RiskMgmt-Transaction Manager- Money market

    Hello Colleague,
    In the creation of  Money market - Fixed Term Deposit - investment , one select box for  Capitalize interest is present
    What does this capitalize interest means?? why it is in the Money market?

    Hi, 
    It depends on country you are using.
    if you check capitalize interest, interest would be added to your deposit account i.e. asset account.  Then it means that interest amount has also been added to the asset and hence we will not pay tax on interest amount.  This is generally done, when you invest back the money which you got from deposit including interest.  Then since you are investing, you won't pay tax for it i.e you are using the money.
    If you have not checked the capitalize interest, then you will get the interest amount to your bank or cash and hence it is a revenue, thus you will have to pay tax for interest amount alone depeding on the amount and also the country.
    P.S:  If the question is answered kindly close the question.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Tracking Treasury Stock in SAP?

    Hello!
    I am wondering if SAP has any capabilities to track Treasury stock purchases and issuances for stock options and employee stock purchase plan. 
    Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you,
    Diane

    dwrobertson,
    There are at least two issues you should know about
    integration with SAP:
    - Captivate requires a change to a variable in the HTM file
    after you
    publish (though you could make the same change to the
    SCORM.htm template
    file so you make the change once and everytime you publish it
    uses the
    updated template).
    -SAP doesn't use the score from Captivate. Scoring in SAP is
    based on the
    completion of all of the SCO's in a course. Since Captivate
    creates a
    course with a single SCO, when a learner completes your SCO
    (your Captivate
    file) they probably see a score of 100.
    The change to the HTM file needs to be to the variable
    "g_intAPIOrder".
    Change it from a 0 to a 1.
    More specific information can be found here (though there
    isn't any
    reference to SAP):
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/captivate/articles/output_scorm_04.html#scorm_api
    Let me know if this works/helps.

  • Treasury in ECC6.0

    Dear Experts,
    In ECC6.0, we need to maintain Update Type, on top of Flow type for treasury posting. I would like to do stock transfer using corporate action - FWK0, however upon posting - FWKB, the system prompts to config the Derived Business Transaction Update type. Can you please help/guide me how to config DBT for transfer stock  posting?
    Thank you in advance for the assistance.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    you need to define the update types in the customizing. This must be done in the setting for securities/position management/corporate actions/update types. If you click on the info button for the customizing step 'Assign Update Types to the Corporate Action Categories' then you will also find some help on the sample customizing
    I hope this helps.

  • BAPI's for Transaction Manager: Is there any BAPI for Stock Options

    Hi gurus,
    We are using almost every BAPI for Transaction Manager module at FSCM-Treasury & Risk Management (ECC 6.0).
    We have forex swaps, forex forwards, forex spot deals, interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps, equity swaps, and we also have a stock options plan.
    We need to use a BAPI to automatically create stock options, importing data from other stock options alreaedy created (manually, by the user) in the system.
    Do you know if there is any specific functionality for this?
    Thanks in advance and kind regards.
    Borja

    Hi Borja,
    if I understand you correct then you want to create a stock option like you can do it manually with the transaction FWZZ. Try the BAPI BAPI_FP_CREATEFROMDATA. With this function module it is possible to create different types of securities like listed options or futures too.

  • Buy stocks on OTC Market

    Hi people,
    we are implementing Transaction Management in Treasury. My client's requirement on following:
    They have  agreement when they buy stocks on OTC market.
    Step 1:  I make collateral to vendor
    Dr: Collateral
    Cr: Cash or Bank clearing account
    Step 2: I down payment to vendor
    Dr: Down payment
    Cr: Cash or Bank clearing account
    Step 3: I receive stocks and payment to vendor
    Dr: Stocks
    Cr: Down payment
    Cr: Cash or Bank clearing account
    Please help me this case.
    Thank you
    Ms. Minh

    Hi,
    Use securities module (within treasury management); product type 01A; transaction type 100. You can add flow types  for collateral, down payment and assign those to transaction type. Accounting entries can be controlled by account determination settings.
    Use business partner (tcode: BP; role: counterparty) instead of vendor.
    Use condition type (111 by default) for dividend. Would you have multiple purchases of the same stock? Then, you will need to be aware of the position (external position) concept; so you can post dividend for your position as opposed to for separate purchases.
    Create asset securities account TRS_SEC_ACC.
    Once config is done, FWZZ to create class (stock master data, if you will); FTR_CREATE or TS01 to create securities transaction; settle; post using TBB1 for collateral, down payment etc., FWZE or FWSO to post dividend.

    Hi,
    When your company is issuing stock you don't need to record anything from treasury side. It is only accounting and nothing is done from Treasury side. If your company's treasury is buying your company's stock then it is treated as a same way as any other stock purchase.
