Subject: zero curve generator for uk gilts anjam , here is the model for fitting the term structure of uk gilts . the basic idea is as follows : dirty price _ { ith gilt } = sum _ { j } c _ { i } / 2 * discount factor ( t _ { j , i } ) + 100 * discount factor ( t _ { ni , i } using a five parameters analytical form for the discount factors , and minimizing the sum of absolute errors , i can derive a smooth zero curve . the model needs an initial guess for the parameters , this may require some experience . the log file can help you to see how well the optimization works . let me know if you have any questions . zimin

Subject: stephen bennett vince , for your use as per our discussions - - - mike - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by mike a roberts / hou / ect on 12 / 09 / 2000 10 : 32 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - from : mike a roberts 12 / 09 / 2000 10 : 33 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : stephen bennett stephen bennett , professional meteorologist , was hired into the research group in september of this year as a specialist based on salary alignment criteria . in retrospect , and upon review , he should have been hired on as a senior specialist . after coming on board . it rapidly became apparent that stephen was clearly an " under hire . " he is well - deserving of an immediate promotion ( really more of a correction ) and pay raise , to be made retroactive at least to the lst of this month . this memo outlines the circumstances surrounding this hiring error and provides detailed justifications for this retroactive " promotion . " at the time of the interview process , there was no position in enron designated as " professional meteorologist . " in fact , the most recent similar hire prior to that date was jose marquez , also a professional meteorologist , who was hired in , based on salary alignment criteria , as a manager . while functionally , both these men are meteorologists , enron has no such job classification . compounded by the urgency in bringing on additional professional expertise in short time order , it was difficult to peg the proper enron classification appropriate for this new position . this original uncertainty and resulting misplacement of stephen into the specialist category , rather than the senior specialist category , needs to be corrected at this time . although a " new - hire " to enron , stephen bennett has extensive work experience . he has worked as a professional meteorologist at both the weather services corporation in boston and at the weather channel in atlanta . he came to enron well - referenced by both those organizations , needing no further training and only minimal supervision . once aboard here in houston , stephen immediately demonstrated the core enron values with our unique sense of urgency . after only a week , he assumed responsibilities normally reserved for someone actually at even a manager level - he was assigned and fully took over the critical afternoon weather briefings to the gas traders . this includes analysis and report preparation as well as presentation . also in the presentation arena , he now regularly briefs various desks in the morning and throughout the day . stephen is a master of communication and particularly adept at conveying what through other messengers might otherwise seem confusing or ambiguous . stephen has also demonstrated an unusually high level of self - initiative . he designed , implemented , and now maintains several sub - sites on the research web page which he tailored to various customers - in specific : the weather derivatives team , the agricultural team , and most recently , the crude and liquids team . i have recently assigned stephen to spearhead our conversion and major upgrade of this web page . these above described accomplishments are above and beyond stephen  , s regular duties which include starting work at 5 am daily , reliably and without fail , to assemble and prepare our trader  , s weather report . recently , with the advent of extended hours for both nymex and enrononline , stephen voluntarily on his own accord , assists in our new sunday weather support effort . as his supervisor , fully cognizant of his already standard 50 + hour work week , i do not solicit , but readily accept , this above and beyond expectations assistance . in review , the circumstance which resulted in this under hire condition was enron  , s immediate need for a non - standard , fairly unique professional - a meteorologist , coupled with stephen  , s desire to work for our company in spite of the absence of a hierarchy which included the exact entitled professional title reflecting his chosen career path . . once hired , stephen has clearly demonstrated through contribution and performance that he is well - deserving of this immediate and retroactive promotion .

Subject: re : final pivot table for mg metals globals positions data dear all , please see attached spreadsheet - we will have to think of a way to automate the position update - right now it ' s a manual process to convert the text file that andreas sends us to proper spreadsheet format and then pivot table the results - only takes about 20 minutes to do this however . note that the version la var model links via vlookup to the spreadsheet attached ( as you know , we have to use vlookup because mg does not necessarily have positions in all forward months , whilst the pivot table only produces numbers for forward months with a position ) . regards , anjam x 35383 positions as of 19 th july - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by anjam ahmad / lon / ect on 25 / 07 / 2000 20 : 41 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - enron europe from : anjam ahmad 25 / 07 / 2000 19 : 17 to : cantekin dincerler / hou / ect @ ect cc : tanya tamarchenko / hou / ect @ ect , kirstee hewitt / lon / ect @ ect , grant masson / hou / ect @ ect , andreas . barschkis @ mgusa . com @ enron subject : re : positions data our pivot table ; we noticed that copper position for 19 th july has option included but this is not reported in mercur - i guess we should include the 5 , 248 tonnes for the copper option for 2000 . 09 , but we won ' t show any gamma . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by anjam ahmad / lon / ect on 25 / 07 / 2000 19 : 18 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - enron europe from : anjam ahmad 25 / 07 / 2000 19 : 14 to : tanya tamarchenko / hou / ect @ ect cc : cantekin dincerler / hou / ect @ ect , andreas . barschkis @ mgusa . com @ enron subject : re : positions data hi tanya , we are using the data for 19 th july from andreas - see file attached . we are using this because we can reconcile to mercur print out that we got from andreas last wednesday . if you don ' t mind , perhaps cantekin can try again with this new sheet attached . we already looked at it , but would like to see what cantekin can come up with independently . i think the positions changed a lot from 3 rd july ( your data ) to 19 th july . thanks , anjam & kirstee

Subject: re : implementing term - structure of correlations for power tanya , while there is seasonal correlations in power , especially for np - 15 and sp - 15 ( same region ) , the term structure of correlations can be input . however , the same correlation structure with similar periodicity may not hold between np - 15 and , say , rlb ( neepool ) , though one would imagine that relationship would still be seasonal ( summer / winter ) , with greater noise . even if the correlational term structure is to be done for power , different rules would have to be inputted for different regions . naveen tanya tamarchenko @ ect 10 / 05 / 2000 10 : 42 am to : vladimir gorny / hou / ect @ ect , naveen andrews / corp / enron @ enron cc : kirstee hewitt / lon / ect @ ect , debbie r brackett / hou / ect @ ect , wenyao jia / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect subject : re : implementing term - structure of correlations for power vlady 2 ) correlations are periodic with a period of 1 year ( this means we can use 12 correlation matrices calculated from first 12 forward contracts and apply these matrices to other forward months ) ; 3 ) using decay factor makes the curves a little smoother . implementation of multiple correlation matrices will not affect the speed of calculations in var model significantly . please , give me your response , thanks , tanya .

( intensively tutoring my daughter for her first semester economics finals at rice . she certainly should have gotten a better looking tutor . ) that will make it very easy to come by and finalize whatever needs to be finalized with you that week . with her in houston , i spend a good bit of time there . look for the stuff in the next day or two . i look forward to working with you and your colleagues . thanks dale - - - - - original message - - - - - from : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com [ mailto : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com ] sent : monday , november 27 , 2000 10 : 44 am to : dale . nesbitt @ worldnet . att . net cc : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com subject : re : marketpoint license agreement dale , thanks for your message . in our phone conversation before the meeting you mentioned another contractual arrangement under which we could work with your company employees on a case - study . the cost of a weekly project would be $ 12 , 000 that would be applied to the purchase price should we go ahead and decide to acquire the software . this project would allow us to evaluate the model and come up with an estimate of the manpower necessary to support the model internally . please , let me know more about this option . we are primarily interested in a long - term natural gas model and the database for north america . unless a familiarity with the short term model is a prerequisite , we don ' t have resources to spend too much time on it . of course , a trading desk may be interested in the short term version of the model . i shall talk to them about it . vince " dale m . nesbitt " on 11 / 13 / 2000 06 : 00 : 05 pm to : , " vince . j . kaminski " cc : subject : marketpoint license agreement john / vince : i really enjoyed the meeting the other day with you and a broad cross section of your people . thank you very much for setting it up , and thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak with your people . as i mentioned to john , i am sending you the license paperwork for marketpoint . i have attached our standard license agreement for your consideration . as i mentioned , the license agreement covers the entire bundled product , which includes ? north american gas , short and long term ? north american electricity , short and long term ? world gas ? western european gas ? world oil we are just finishing porting the world oil , world gas , and western european gas models over from our old ( now obsolete ) software system into marketpoint , so they will not be fully tested and complete for a couple of months . however , the gas and electricity models for north america are presently complete and tested . that should allow us to give you an attractive price before the full worldwide toolkit is available throughout your worldwide business . as i understood it , you will want the gas modeling capability first and will want to defer decisions on electric or other capability . as i mentioned at the meeting , we are prepared to offer that for approximately the fully bundled price . as you read the license agreement , you will see that the software licenses for $ 100 , 000 annually , the gas data for $ 5 , 000 , and the electric data for $ 10 , 000 . marketpoint will agree to license you the gas model plus the data for the software license plus the data license for a total of $ 55 , 000 annually . this is just under the fully bundled price . i think that is consistent with the discussions at our meeting , and from marketpoint ' s perspective would provide a great basis to move forward together with enron . if or when enron ever desires to " scale up " to another model or model ( s ) from the marketpoint portfolio , we will simply scale you up to the entire license agreement . this will allow you to decouple the gas decision from any other decisions you might make . ( i will be glad to put this additional pricing provision into the agreement if you decide to move forward . ) i felt i was able to communicate the philosophy , scope , and operation of our approach during the meeting and to deliver you much of the information you might need to evaluate whether marketpoint meets your needs . i thought you were able to see the depth and sophistication of the product yet at the same time its simplicity and effectiveness . i thought you were able to see the benefits of the marketpoint dimension of economic equilibrium as a complement and supplement to other approaches you will assuredly use . i would be interested in your impressions and those of your colleagues . i look forward to your response and to moving ahead together . we view you as a very important prospective customer and client and will work with you to earn and secure your business . if you decide to license marketpoint , we can arrange to transfer and mount marketpoint and the short term narg model ( which is the model we suggest you begin with ) and travel to houston to deliver our 1 day training seminar . our clients are usually very fluent after that 1 day training seminar . thereafter , we would want you to work with the short term narg model for a few weeks while you get up to speed , very fluent , and very comfortable before you take delivery of the longer term version of narg several weeks later . thanks again , and all the best . if there is some item from the meeting that i might have forgotten to send , please remind me . my notes don ' t show anything , but i was speaking a lot rather than writing notes during the meeting and might have overlooked something someone wanted . dale nesbitt president marketpoint inc . 27121 adonna ct . los altos hills , ca 94022 ( 650 ) 218 - 3069 dale . nesbitt @ marketpointinc . com ( see attached file : license . doc )

Subject: california update 3 / 15 / 01 executive summary ? davis might concede to rate hikes for future power consumption but not for past utility debt ? davis and pg & e negotiations at a standstill , sticking point is net short for pg & e this summer ? as the days go on with no word of a secured deal , involuntary bankruptcy chances increase significantly among small generators and qfs ? ferc would probably approve transmission deal but with several conditions for california california public utility commission rate increases today may be the turning point as the ca puc reviews the size of the department of water resources ( dwr ) rate increase to be passed along to consumers on their electricity bills . until now , davis has considered rate hikes to be political suicide , but there may be some relief for him from consumer groups . sources indicate that one of california ' s main consumer advocate leaders may tolerate rate increases for future power consumption , but remains adamant about not raising rates to cover past utility debt . dwr , which is currently buying power on behalf of the state , needs more income to securitize the planned $ 10 b bond issue that is key part of davis ' plan to sign long term power contracts . as dwr continues to spend $ 40 to $ 60 m every day on power purchases , a well placed source informed us the dwr is essentially bankrupt . it currently has no money for normal activities such as ordering supplies , purchasing new equipment , etc . the department of finance is forwarding dwr money from where ever it can ( parks , other programs ) to purchase power , but dwr ' s hands are tied until revenue bonds are issued . the california state treasurer phil angelides will be submitting a recommendation on rate increases in order to secure revenue and cover $ 10 billion worth of state bonds . davis & pg & e at odds sources report that davis and pg & e negotiations are facing two difficult challenges : 1 ) pg & e wants 2 . 9 times book , which is far more than consumer groups recommend for the sale of its transmission lines ( sce accepted 2 . 3 ) , and 2 ) pg & e needs relief from davis for pg & es legal responsibility to be the ultimate power purchaser for the state , and at this point davis wants to limit further state energy power purchases ( especially for summer ) . the utilities refuse to sign a deal which will leave them billions of dollars further in the red ( $ 3 to $ 4 b ) and pg a measure that if accomplished would provide davis with even less negotiating power . with all this activity , davis is starting to lose support in the state legislature . sources report increasing tension between the governor and state senate president pro - tem john burton . burton has just announced a special senate committee will investigate the generators for evidence of price manipulation , and the state auditor is also planning an investigation . davis increasingly realizes he has to protect any deal he signs against being picked apart by the legislature and consumer groups later . qf ' s most likely source of involuntary bankruptcy sacramento insiders fear that a group of small generators will lose patience and force bankruptcy on the utilities . sb 47 x may have been california ' s qualified facilities last hope at avoiding an involuntary bankruptcy filing against pg & e , socal ed , and sdg & e . the bill designed to cut the qf ' s costs and provide them with a better rate structure is being held up in the state ' s senate . sources indicate that a filing could come at anytime and further investigations are underway to ferret out the most likely candidates . out with hebert , in with wood the bush administration favors replacing hebert , jr . with texas puc head pat wood . there is an intense battle behind the scenes between senate republican leader trent lott , who favors hebert , and president bush , who wants wood . the administration would prefer wood because they do not want ferc to pick a fight with davis which means bush might ultimately lose some western states in 2004 . in effort to tone down the recent press reports , hebert has made several token concessions to california , including $ 69 million worth of power refunds and streamlining the federal permitting process for pipeline and power plant installation . it ' s is expected that ferc would most likely approve any transmission deal that davis could complete but with a list of conditions . some conditions might include bring the lines formally into the regional grid system as well as other elements to pave the way for more dramatic administrative actions in the west next year . the bush administration is opposed to price caps and believes in free market solutions . the administration is also considering whether it might be a good idea to privatize federally - owned assets such as bpa .

Subject: spanish power option pricing hi paul / cassim , further to our meeting yesterday regarding power options , that we may use to capture short - term volatility from regulatory caps being adhered to or broken , i have attached a spreadsheet that should assist in nailing down the value . arbitrary distribution the first issue to address is converting the price scenarios for the average of the q 2 - q 3 swap into a volatility equivalent . this is achieved by fitting a normal distribution that matches the one specified for mean and standard deviation . the graph below illustrates the method for the numbers discussed yesterday . in this example , the annualised volatility is coming up as approximately 23 % . pricing & implied volatility the pricing is as for a regular asian option . the payoff depends on the average of the daily prices for spanish power for q 2 and q 3 . the valuation using 23 % volatility is showing about 15 . 3 pta per kwh . i will schedule a meeting to allow us to take this forward . regards , anjam x 35383 spreadsheet :

Subject: gas prices vince - 1 . we can detect " hoarding " of pipeline capacity as an elevated basis against the actual inflow . 2 . we can detect " market power " by dissociating the seller from the buyer , distinguishing between the physical " cost " in gas to run the generators and the transmission cost in dollars , i . e . the basis . 3 . ( as you noted ) we can detect " storage " as the difference between inflow and consumption . it appears to me there are two time series needed for a straightforward model of gas prices : flow rates at interconnects ( from telemetry ) and spot - market prices . there is an elevated basis reflecting pipeline companies monopolizing capacity , as well as hoarding of capacity by contracts . the dynamics of gas prices reflect consumption demand changes due to changes in expectations for the weather , as well as their impact on two highly strategic behaviors : hoarding of pipeline capacity and storage of gas . we can " calibrate " the price elasticity of demands for consumption and storage , and the price elasticities of demand for transmission , as well as the extent of hoarding , from the two sets of numbers mentioned : flows and prices . what the basis trader needs to understand are the incentives , and disincentives , for storage and capacity - hoarding , in terms of the calibrated price - elasticities , and each of these are as - if exotic call options at the consumption hub . finally , flows are " explained " by the model , and can be imputed from prices if necessary , resulting in a purely stochastic model of the basis in terms of the weather . i believe the problem is quite tractable , and i would like to proceed with a model . clayton

Subject: corrected : new update on ppi model for inflation book dear all , i followed up on the suggestions at the conference call as follows : - 1 ) use less data unfortunately , kicking out only 1990 makes the overall equation a lot less robust , in fact dramatically so , and so eliminates the possibility of using less data . the model tested was the rpi ( month + 15 ) ppi pre - empts the moves in rpi by about 8 months . the magnitude of the oscillations is also reduced . this shows that if we had more detail in our rpi forward curve , then the ppi model would reflect those peaks and humps adequately . conclusion i therefore propose that we use the model that incorporates rpi , rpi [ t + 15 ] and deviations of brent crude from long - term average . the new model is plotted below in burgundy and can be compared to the old ppi which is depicted in blue . the new model achieves the two main objectives of the ppi curve : it is significantly more robust and stable than the existing one , and it is considerably less sensitive to the input coefficients , which results in us having more confidence in our monthly p it was found that deviations of dated brent crude from the long - term average of $ 18 . 80 was the best form of the variable to use ( for predictions the brent forward curve produced by the global products group is used ) . the three new equations developed were : - pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + c . ( datedbrentcrude - 18 . 8 ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ reddish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 49 f - stat approx 32 the chart below shows what our projected pllu curve would be given this equation , and also the three best relations from before which were based upon current and future rpi : pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ greenish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 47 f - stat approx 45 comparison of models as you can see , the two equations differ in the very short - term and very long - term ; the inclusion of deviations of brent crude leads to short - term predictions of 3 . 0 % to 3 . 2 % over the next six months . the greenish curves predict pllu in the range of 2 . 5 % to 2 . 8 % over the next six months . the curves are then very similar until 2009 , when the models including crude break - away to the upside , relative to the falling rpi curve . the model based purely on rpi hugs the rpi curve much more closely in the longer term . this is only important to the extent that we have large positions beyond 2009 ( which we don ' t ) . suggestion what could be useful now is a differently - specified model designed to forecast only the next 3 months , using auto - regressive or auto - regressive error terms . this model would be far more accurate in the near - term , and we could include this information onto the front of this long - term model . this may be useful , despite the fact that most of our exposure is in future time buckets . back - testing all the models give similar visual and statistical performance over the data sample used ( based mainly on 1990 s " new paradigm " economy ) . hopefully we can discuss these and other points later in the tele - conference ; your ideas on this would be appreciated . regards , anjam x 35383

" vincejkaminski " cc : subject : ? preface for book vince , hope you are well . we spoke a while ago about who should write the preface for the book , and ? you kindly offered that you would provide this . is this still ? possible ? we realise that you are extremely busy , so chris and les went ? ahead and wrote something , which is below , and if you want to review , change or ? re - write the preface , that would be very appreciated . let me know ? what your thoughts are . thanks , julie ( we ' re getting close ) preface one of our main objectives in ? writing energy derivatives : pricing and risk management has been to bring ? together as many of the various approaches for the pricing and risk management ? energy derivatives as possible , to discuss in - depth the models , and to show how ? they relate to each other . in this ? way we hope to help the reader to analyse the different models , price a wide ? range of energy derivatives , or to build a risk management system which uses a ? consistent modelling framework . we ? believe that for practitioners this last point is very important and we continue ? to stress in our articles and presentations the dangers of having flawed risk ? management and giving arbitrage opportunities to your competitors by using ? ad - hoc and inconsistent models for different instruments and markets ( see also others who propose consistent ? models ? ) . however , it is not ? our wish to concentrate on one particular model or models , at the exclusion of ? the others because we believe that the choice should rest with the user ? ( although it will probably be clear from our discussions the model ( s ) we ? prefer ) . we therefore try and give ? as clear account as possible of the advantage and disadvantages of all the ? models so that the reader can make an informed choice as to the models which ? best suit their needs . in order to meet our objectives the ? book is divided into 11 chapters . ? in chapter 1 we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to ? model and price energy derivatives which will underpin the remainder of the ? book . in addition to introducing ? the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we outline ? the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for ? derivative pricing , which are used throughout the book . in chapter 2 we discuss the ? analysis of spot energy prices . as ? well as analysing empirical price movements we propose a number of processes ? that can be used to model the prices . ? we look at the well - know process of geometric brownian motion as well as ? mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each and ? showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince ? kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corp . , discusses volatility ? estimation in energy commodity markets . ? this chapter builds on the previous one . it examines in detail the methods , ? merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different ? pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . ? examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate ? the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . chapter 4 examines forward curves ? in the energy markets . although ? such curves are well understood and straight - forward in the most financial ? markets , the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well ? defined curves . in this chapter we ? describe forward price bounds for energy prices and the building of forward ? curves from market instruments . we ? outline the three main approaches which have been applied to building forward ? curves in energy markets ; the arbitrage approach , the econometric approach , and ? deriving analytical values by modelling underlying stochastic factors . chapter 5 presents an overview of ? structures found in the energy derivative markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian options , barrier options , lookback options , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and ? multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard ? energy derivatives . closed form ? solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices ? both on the spot and forwards are derived and presented for all the models in ? this chapter including a three factor , stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model . chapter 7 shows how the prices of ? path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in ? chapter 6 . simulation schemes are ? developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety ? of path dependent options . in order ? to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial ? tree scheme is developed . this tree ? is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to ? price exotic as well as standard european and american style options . chapter 8 describes a methodology ? for valuing energy options based on modelling the whole of the market observed ? forward curve . the approach results ? in a multi - factor model that is able to realistically capture the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves . ? the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general ? form . closed - form solutions are ? developed for pricing standard european options , and efficient monte carlo ? schemes are presented for pricing exotic options . the chapter closes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk ? management of energy derivative positions . ? in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions ? that trade options or other derivatives and who are then faced with the problem ? of managing the risk through time . ? we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look ? at extensions to gamma hedging ? illustrating the techniques using both spot and ? forward curve models . the general ? model presented in chapter 8 is ideally suited to multi - factor hedging of a ? portfolio of energy derivatives and this is also discussed . chapter 10 examines the key risk ? management concept of value at risk ( var ) applied to portfolios containing ? energy derivative products . after ? discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ? ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . we then compare the fours major ? methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and ? monte - carlo simulation , applying each to the same portfolio of energy ? options . in this chapter we also ? look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market ? variables . finally , in chapter 11 we review ? modelling approaches to credit risk . ? we look in detail at two quite different approaches , creditmetrics ( j . p . morgan ( 1997 ) ) and ? creditrisk + ( credit suisse financial ? products ( 1997 ) ) for which detailed information is publicly available . together these provide an extensive set ? of tools with which to measure credit risk . we present numerical examples of applying these techniques to energy derivatives . before ? we begin we stress that the models and methods we present in this book are tools ? which should be used with the benefit of an understanding of how both the ? tool ? ? and the market works . the ? techniques we describe are certainly not ? magic wands ? which can be waved at ? data and risk management problems to provide instant and perfect solutions . to quote from the riskmetrics technical document ? ? no amount of sophisticated analytics will replace experience and professional judgement in managing risk . ? . ? however , the right tools , correctly used make the job a lot ? easier !

placed sources in the government , the company has informed the madhav godbole panel that it would be meeting on may 11 . earlier reports had indicated that the discussions with the panel would take place on may 5 . according to sources , enron would be meeting the panel with representatives of its lenders and shareholders . the godbole committee , that studied the current power purchase agreement , has called for cancellation of the present tariff structure , renegotiation of the lng and shipping contract , removal of dollar denomination as far as fixed charges of the tariff is concerned , debt restructuring and the formation of a committee to renegotiate the power purchase agreement . these suggestions , it seems , may not be acceptable to enron . the maharashtra government accepted the report and asked the godbole committee to renegotiate . the committee has been given a month  , s time to renegotiate on behalf of the state government with dpc for a new ppa . the committee has opined that since the lng facility of 5 mmpta is far in excess of what is required by the plant ( only 2 . 1 mmpta of which 1 . 8 mmpta is on take or pay ) , it should be separated into a distinct facility whose capital costs should not be reflected in the fuel charge , not as take or pay . it should instead be only in proportion to the fuel regassified for the power generation . using the entire allocated gas requires an unusually high plf . instead , the surplus gas can be sold to other players like petronet or enron  , s own metgas .  & it is important to distribute the cost over the entire capacity and not just the amount sold to the power plant ,  8 says the committee . similarly , it has been suggested that enron could lease out the harbour facilities as a common facility to other lng importers . on the lng contract negotiated by enron for long - term supplies , it has said that since the lng market has witnessed great changes , particularly as far as prices are concerned , the power company should take advantage of spot buys and renegotiate the contract accordingly . -

led re - negotiation committee set - up to facilitate the restructuring of the power purchase agreement ( ppa ) signed between the us power major and the state government . officials of dabhol power company ( dpc ) , a subsidiary of enron , alongwith their team of shareholders and lenders will arrive here on may 11 for talks with the nine - member godbole panel . though the dpc spokesperson was reluctant to give a confirmation , a key mantralaya official told the times of india that the team had expressed willingness for talks with the experts committee in a bid to end the imbroglio . enron ' s response is viewed as a welcome development to amicably resolve the controversy which had been raging for the last few weeks , with the board of directors of enron authorising its india md k wade cline to serve a termination notice to mseb . the state government , on its part , too adopted a confrontational position by slapping a rs 401 crore rebate charge on dpc for defaulting on power supply . however , the sudden change of heart by the enron management is largely attributed to the stand taken by its local lenders led by industrial development bank of india ( idbi ) which had recently opposed the move to pull out of the project . this was in contradiction to the stand taken by the foreign lenders of the dpc who were in favour of slamming the brakes on disbursement of funds to dpc . the congress - led democratic front government had publicly declared that it would impress upon the enron management to renegotiate the ppa as scrapping the project would not be in the interest of both the parties . last week , the state government constituted a nine - member panel of experts under former bureaucrat madhav godbole . godbole had written to the dpc management inviting it for talks to re - negotiate the ppa on may 5 . for the delayed response from enron , the meeting has been rescheduled to may 11 . the issues which would be debated at the meeting include the separation of the lng facility from the power plant , renegotiating lng supply and shipping agreements , redefining the dpc tariff and to convert it into a two - part tariff . the godbole panel will bargain hard for removal of dollar denomination in the fixed charge component and to allow the maharashtra government to sell power to third parties . - - - - - - -

arrival of its team from houston and other parts of the world . however , the company has ultimately decided to meet the godbole committee on may 11 . dpc spokesman jimmy mogal said :  & we confirm that dpc has been invited to meet the recently formed negotiating committee . as a matter of courtesy , we have agreed to meet them next week . since the purpose of our meeting is to hear out the committee and understand their thoughts , we will not present any proposals .  8  & while we have constantly maintained that we are open to a dialogue towards resolving issues , this meeting in no manner be construed as an open offer from dpc to renegotiate the terms of the contract . furthermore , the published terms report do not represent an acceptable basis for further discussions ,  8 he added . sources said enron corp chairman kenneth lay is likely to meet former chief minister sharad pawar to find an acceptable solution for the ongoing crisis before the may 11 meet . mr lay told the foreign news agency on wednesday that the enron corp has no immediate plans to sell its stake in the troubled $ 2 . 9 -
