April FOMC Meeting Highlights Market Expectations of Fed Funds Rate

Growth in economic activity has picked up recently Household spending appears to be rising more quickly,

business fixed investment has edged down, and housing sector recovery has remained slow

The Committee views risks to the outlook for the economy and labor market as nearly balanced, and recognizes that inflation below its 2% objective could pose risks to economic performance

The economy is expected to continue to expand at a moderate pace and employment to improve gradually

The Committee’s sizable and continuing asset purchase program should maintain downward pressure on longer term interest rates, support mortgage markets and help make broader financial conditions more accommodative

The Committee will continue its purchases of Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities as well as employ other policy tools as appropriate until the outlook for the labor market has improved substantially in the context of price stability

The Committee will assess both realized and expected progress towards its employment and inflation objectives in determining how long to maintain the current 0-0.25% target range for the federal funds rate

The next FOMC meeting will take place June 17-18th

MBS Trends

Trend

15yr 3% MBS MBS 30yr Coupon Stack

Recent changes in unrealized gains/losses in investment portfolios have been roughly equivalent to price movement of 15yr 3% MBS

As expected, higher coupon MBS have held in better during sell offs

With prepayments slowing, many recent MBS coupons are approaching fully extended levels

Defensive portfolio positioning continues for higher rates that have yet to come. Discussions have turned from “Earnings & Yield” to “Volatility & Extension”

– Developing an investment framework

– Quantify the breakeven rate

– Understand portfolio volatility

– Securities that roll down the curve

– Limit extension risk

– Increase cash flow

» Seasoned 15yr MBS, 1oyr MBS

» Short stated final structured pass-throughs

– Bullet securities to roll down the curve

– Add floating / adjustable rate product

– Evaluate potential hedging

– FHLB vs. Interest Rate Swaps

Developing an Investment Framework

Objective: XYZ Credit Union would like to develop a Quantitative Risk Management Framework

Interest Rate Risk Spread Risk Liquidity Risk Credit Risk

Risk tolerance is a function of two factors:

Capital Volatility Threshold Investment Portfolio Allocation

Step 1: Define the Risks to the Investment Portfolio

Step 2: Calculate Risk Tolerance:

Capital Volatility Threshold

The Capital Volatility Threshold (CVT) is the maximum acceptable decline in the net worth

22

Investment Portfolio Allocation

The credit union should have a target size for the investment portfolio (as a % of total assets)

The target size of the investment portfolio is a function of: liquidity needs, asset concentration, funding mix, ALM profile, capital position, and the lending environment

The Risk Tolerance (RT) is the maximum acceptable percentage price decline in the investment portfolio

Developing an Investment Framework

Step 3: Define the Market Shock Scenario

The Market Shock Scenario (MSS) is a function of both interest rate and spread volatility.

The most conservative approach is to assume an instantaneous shock of interest rates/spreads. In times of high interest rate/spread volatility, the MSS should be set at a higher level, while in times of low interest rate/spread volatility, the MSS should be set at a lower level.

Assume interest rate/spread volatility is historically high, meaning the probability of a market shock is above average, the relevant MSS might be +300bps.

23

Developing an Investment Framework

Conversely, assume interest rate/spread volatility is historically low, meaning the probability of a market shock is below average, the relevant MSS might be a +100bps/+200bps

All else equal, the higher/(lower) the MSS the shorter/(longer) the duration of the investment portfolio

As rational investors, we seek to maximize return, subject to our risk constraints. The goal is to build an investment portfolio that maximizes expected income, but does not decline by more than the RT in the MSS.

Assume the RT is -10.0%, and the relevant MSS is +200bps. Our goal is to maximize expected income, subject to the constraint that the investment portfolio does not decline by more than 10.0% in a +200bps scenario.

Steps 2-4 should be repeated as balance sheet and market conditions change

Step 4: Rebalance the Investment Portfolio

24

The following tables illustrate the interaction between the capital volatility threshold, investment portfolio allocation, and the risk tolerance:

Floating Rate Investments

With the recent increase in interest rates, many clients are re-evaluating their investment strategy

Losses have accumulated faster than most investors expected

With more interest rate volatility expected, clients are looking for a safe place to park cash until fixed

income markets stabilize

Overnight Fed deposits offer too little yield (currently, 25 bps)

Floating rate investments are increasingly popular with our clients looking to minimize interest rate

risk, while maintaining a reasonable return

The next slide outlines some of the most popular floating rate investment alternatives

Hedging Floating Rate Funding

The current environment makes a compelling case for hedging against higher rates as earnings and NIM are under pressure with theFed on hold:

– On the asset side, credit unions are acquiring longer duration assets in loan and investment portfolios and loan demand is tepid

– On the liability side, credit unions are keeping funding lower-cost and a shorter-term– With the shifts on both sides of the balance sheet, there is commonly an ALM need for protection against higher rates

Floating rate funding can be hedged with both spot and forward starting swaps. Any forward starting swaps longer than 90 days from trade date require NCUA approval.

This strategy can be deployed against existing or future variable rate funding (FHLB advances, retail or wholesale time deposits, market-linked interest bearing deposits).

Typically the hedge will have pricing efficiencies to other term funding sources.

This strategy can also be used as a leverage play for credit unions looking to increase Net Interest Income by adding funding, using the hedge to manage duration, then deploying the funding against longer dated fixed rate assets.

In the current environment, many credit unions are hedging against higher rates to protect Net Interest Income (NII) and Economic Value of Equity (EVE)

Identifying Funding Source

A credit union can achieve significant savings using swaps in coordination with FHLB Advances:

FHLB Advance Rates have a term premium that raises the cost of financing

Financing with shorter term floating rate Advances minimizes the term premium impact

Savings will vary between FHLBs and tenors, but for the below FHLB, 10y fixed rate borrowings were at an 88 bps premium to benchmark swap rates

Credit unions can achieve the term rates they are looking for by combining a floating rate FHLB Advance with an interest rate swap and then simply renewing the short-term floating rate advance periodically

For credit unions that want to extend their funding with a hedge but don’t have the need for wholesale funding, there are retail funding sources that are hedgable. Most common are:

Market-linked interest bearing deposits (LIBOR, Fed Funds, Prime)

Retail time deposits

Municipal deposits
