Subject: wti - new eol product please provide comments on the summary below . after i have collected them , we can decide to distribute to greg , john , jeff and anyone else involved . the following is my summary of our collective thoughts regarding the proposed 24 x 7 trading of prompt wti : 1 ) appears advisable to have on - site human monitoring for the following reasons : a ) public relations b ) in case there are operational bugs c ) unforeseen market events , particulary during off exchange hours , long weekends , etc 2 ) we advocate some live trading simulation with incentives to " bust " the system prior to launch to work our operational glitches , and because the historical simulations used daily , not intra - day prices . 3 ) consider a daily position limit ( a sub - limit of the overall global products limit ) whereby each day , at least once a day , the open position will be reduced under the limit ( or to close to flat ? ) 4 ) consider a " trigger " whereby the fixed spread widens if a certain number of consecutive trades occurs on the same side of the market 5 ) consider the purchase of deep out - of - the - money puts and calls to protect against extreme events . ted | 0 |
Subject: re : summer visits steve , i can pick up the cost of your trip from the research group budget . the more i think about it , the more i am convinced it would be difficult to justify 2 trips per person . i think that we should go for one contiguous stay per person and make a good effort to make these trips productive . vince steven leppard 05 / 11 / 2000 03 : 41 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : dale surbey / lon / ect @ ect subject : summer visits vince thanks for offering to look my presentation over . the deadline for submission has been extended until tomorrow ( friday ) , so there ' s less of a hurry . as regard our summer visits , we ' ll need to speak to dale over the budget . personal commitments mean it ' s difficult for me to take two whole months to visit , so if the cost is prohibitive i may need to make just one shorter visit . i ' d obviously like to spend longer , and two visits seems to be the only way i can do it . i believe the situation is similar for kirstee . i ' ve persuaded richard to pay for matt ' s visit in its entirety , and i ' ve no doubt that rac / credit trading will pick up the bills for ben and kirstee . it ' s difficult to think who ' d be the natural group to pay for me . i honestly think i ' ll have difficulty persuading , e . g . richard , that it ' s worth his while to pay for my visit . i get the impression he thinks i ' m doing ok without the need to go to houston for further training . i ' m interviewing a candidate for bjorn ' s model review role during today ' s videoconference , so we ' ll need to speak beforehand or perhaps friday . all the best , steve vince j kaminski 05 / 10 / 2000 01 : 54 pm to : steven leppard / lon / ect @ ect cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , grant masson / hou / ect @ ect , pinnamaneni krishnarao / hou / ect @ ect subject : conference steve , i am tied up at the power 2000 conference . i shall get back to you with my comments on thursday morning . i also want to talk to you tomorrow about finalizing the dates of the summer rotations . we are talking to hr here about apartments , car rentals , and other arrangements for the london team for the summer . i promised to give them the names and dates by the end of the week . sorry for the delay in sending you my comments . vince | 0 |

Subject: california update 1 / 31 / 01 please do not hesitate to contact robert johnston ( x 39934 ) or kristin walsh ( x 39510 ) with additional questions . executive summary an announcement could be made as early as today regarding the first wave of long - term contracts ( price and term ) . the threat of bankruptcy is significantly diminishing as davis hatches a plan to 1 ) pass on " court ordered rate increases " and 2 ) issue revenue bonds . audit results are in and questions loom about the amount of funds transferred to parent companies . davis is expected to use the threat of " endless appeals " in courts and a possible ballot initiative in november to keep the pressure on the parent companies to pay a share of the utility debt , as well as to limit the scope of the rate hikes . davis hopes that a court ruling in favor of the utilities would provide him with the political cover he needs to pass on rate hikes to california consumers and avoid utility bankruptcy . davis walking a fine line with consumer advocacy groups . if there is a ballot initiative in november to challenge the expected court - ordered rate hikes , it could be disastrous for investor confidence in the state . legislation and bail out bill ablx was heard for several hours in the senate appropriations yesterday . issues still remain regarding the tiered rate structure , specifically for communities that have harsh climates . however , the bill has received support from almost everyone including consumer groups . the bill is expected to pass sometime today . tim gage , ca director of finance said davis supports all the provisions in ablx and expected to sign . bill abl 8 x was not heard in the assembly yesterday but is expected to be hear today . in committee hearings monday , the dwr testified it is spent all of the $ 400 m and were spending $ 45 m / day in the spot market to buy power . according to sources with direct access to governor davis , the on - going court battle , as discussed below , is viewed as an excellent opportunity for a settlement . davis recognizes that 1 ) the expected court ruling in the cpuc case will likely authorize the utilities to increase rates charged to california rate payers ; 2 ) despite that ruling , the state government has the ability to delay the eventual reward of that order long enough to cripple the two utilities unless they come to terms . thus , davis believes that california consumers cannot avoid getting hit with higher electricity charges , but he plans to use the threat of an appeal ( and a possible ballot initiative ) to limit the amount of the rate hikes . a plan to exempt the lowest income , smallest consumers from any rate increase and to concentrate rate increases among consumers using 130 % of a baseline usage rate was gaining serious momentum last night in sacramento . that would still hit about one half of all consumers ( since the " baseline " is set at 60 % of average consumption ) , but it is " progressive " in a politically important sense . making this work would require solving a minor crisis that erupted last night when pg & e admitted they had stopped reading electricity meters for many customers and were estimating their bills based on previous usage rates . the company ' s defense ( they had laid off meter readers to conserve cash ) was met with widespread derision as consumer advocates pointed out the estimation policy conveniently allowed the company to charge more despite serious efforts by californians to use less electricity . " every time you think there ' s a moment when these utilities will not embarrass themselves , something like this happens , " one legislator moaned . long - term contracts a second key to keeping the eventual rate increases down lies in the negotiations now almost complete for the first wave of long - term power buying contracts davis initiated earlier this month . the first wave of those contracts will be announced perhaps as early as today and they will be surprisingly positive , according to officials in the talks . " we got a series of good offers in those initial proposals . and some not so good ones , " one official told our source . " the idea is to announce the results of the first contract talks with the good guys and then go back to the others and say , ' you want in on this with these terms ? ' we think we ' ll eventually shake loose a lot of supply with this strategy . " bankruptcy because of these new dynamics , there is improved market confidence that california will emerge from the current energy crisis without bankruptcy for socal edison and pg & e , even as they are set to miss another round of payments to creditors and suppliers today ( remember , there is a standstill agreement among creditors not to ask for accelerated payment until feb . 13 ) . we believe that sense of optimism will be given an even more credible boost by the court case in front of us district judge ronald s . w . lew in los angeles , which is likely to mushroom into the kind of political cover for elected officials that make a settlement possible by the end of next week , at the latest . in fact , without that political cover it would be impossible to square all the various circles of this crisis . audit results and ballot initiatives markets , bush administration officials , and perhaps utility companies themselves are underweighting the possibility that citizens groups will launch a successful ballot initiative in the fall of 200 l to bring all electricity generation back under state control . the threat of a proposition initiative mounted as the two audits of the utility companies ordered by the california public utilities commission released in the last 48 hours confirmed two seriously damaging points we have been warning about since mid - january . first , the audit of socal edison confirmed that $ 2 billion of the debt the utility claims it owes to energy suppliers is actually owed to itself through its corporate holding structure that generates and sells power . second , it confirmed that edison electric paid nearly $ 5 billion in profits to the holding company which then used that money to buy back its stock and increase dividends in an effort to keep its stock price up even while it was going on a debt - issuing binge . the audit of pg & e released late last night was even more damaging : pg & e management was sharply criticized for poor decisions in failing to react to " clear warning signs of an approaching energy crisis " by not making deep spending cuts , " including scaling back management salaries . " the auditors also questioned the utility ' s decision to funnel some $ 4 . 7 billion of its profits since deregulation into the coffers of its parent holding company , which then used the cash mostly to pay dividends and buy back stocks . " basically , they took the money and ran , " as state senate speaker burton put it yesterday . what appears to be governor gray davis ' grudging acceptance of reality is actually a highly evolved effort to produce a solution that provides enough rate hikes / taxpayer subsidy to help solve the current crisis without triggering a new - - and far more damaging - - burst of populist outrage among a voter base that still thinks the utility companies are basically making this all up . there is no doubt that this use of money by socal edison and the debts it owes to itself are perfectly legal and in keeping with the spirit of the 1996 deregulation law , but that is irrelevant in popular political terms . were it not for the political cover potentially afforded by the court case discussed below , these audits would make settlement extremely difficult . keeping that anger from exploding into a ballot initiative this fall is key to understanding the very complex game that davis , his advisers and senior legislators are now playing . a ballot initiative would be a potential disaster since it would almost certainly be aimed at re - establishing full public control over the electric utilities . even if the state and utilities successfully challenged such an initiative in court it would be years before that victory was clear and it would freeze all new private investment during that prolonged period . that ' s something california cannot afford as businesses would be moving out and new ones failing to relocate . court battle thus , legislators are listening in horror as they hear the ugly details of the court case in los angeles that socal edison and pg & e are likely to win in mid - february . the court will most likely grant the two utilities $ 12 . 7 billion in relief and that the cost would fall immediately on the shoulders of consumers who would see bills rise by at least 30 % , california politicians could see the emergence of the one thing everyone has needed since the start of this extended drama : political cover . davis will then have to rely on his political and negotiating skills to pressure the parent companies of the utilities to pass on something less than the full $ 12 . 7 billion debt . pg & e and socal edison have already won round one of a legal battle designed to let them raise electricity rates enough to recover all of the debt they have accumulated since august last year when the puc refused to let them raise prices even as electricity prices soared . the court said the 1996 deregulation law was crystal clear - - when the two utilities had repaid so - called " stranded costs , " they were free to begin charging whatever they needed to charge consumers to cover their cost of acquiring power . although the utilities won this case , the judge stayed his order until february 14 th at the state government ' s request . as that deadline approaches , an intense new negotiating round is under way . on the one hand , political officials know they have the ultimate political cover for higher electric prices ( " the courts made me do it " ) , but on the other hand , they also know that immediate and full compliance with that court order would force electricity rates up by about 40 % on top of natural gas bills that have soared by about 300 % since last year . utility companies are playing this card aggressively in negotiations about the scope and shape of the final bailout . " we ' ll just wait until the court puts the order into effect in mid - february then even if we are in bankruptcy we will emerge quickly and easily . " one tactic the state political officials are using , in order to force a settlement , is the threat of keeping the law suit tied up in court for the next couple of years . one political official pointed out that they could keep the utilities from receiving their money this year , next year or perhaps even the year after . " sure , we tell them , they will probably win in court and get that money . eventually . we are making them well aware that unless we have a settlement we will appeal that court ruling all the way to the supreme court and keep them tied up for the next two years at least . we don ' t think the creditors will be quite that patient .

Subject: re : convergence of the research model i was curious about the accuracy of our credit reserve model as a function of the number of simulations we use . this question , i think , is not so important when we calculate credit reserve , because the assumptions underlying our model are pretty rough anyway ( here i mean the assumptions regarding price processes , correlations , etc . ) this question becomes more essential when we talk about calculating sensitivities of the credit reserve to various factors . when the magnitude of the sensitivity is comparable to the accuracy of calculation of the credit reserve , what is the accuracy of such sensitivity ? i performed a numerical experiment where i calculated the expected loss for a simple portfolio with one counterparty ( sithe ind power ) for different number of simulations ( 10 , 100 , 1000 , 10000 , 100000 ) using old research credit model . you can see how the result converges and the relative error ( compared to the result for 100000 simulations which is assumed to be the most accurate ) in the attached file . tanya . | 0 |

Subject: bachelier finance society congress , crete 2002 dear dr kaminsky , on behalf of the scientific committee of the 2 nd world congress of the bachelier finance society , it is my pleasure to invite you to give one of the plenary lectures . the bachelier finance society came into being in 1996 by the initiative of mathematical finance researchers who found the need to create an organization where academia and practitioners would meet and exchange ideas spanning on the crossroads between finance , economics , econometrics , insurance and mathematics . the conference is the society ' s second biannual meeting and it will take place in the island of crete , from june 12 to june 15 , 2002 . the other members of the scientific committee are g . constantinides , m . davis , f . delbaen , d . duffie , h . foellmer , m . jeanblanc and e . platen . either myself or any other member of the committee would be happy to discuss with you about the conference and the society . crete is one of the most beautiful greek islands . the conference will take place in a resort in xersonissos , a picturesque site close to irakleion and knossos . the airfare ( economy class ) and all local expenses ( lodging , meals and local transportation ) will be covered . we will all be honored by your presence . sincerely , thaleia zariphopoulou chair of the scientific committee v . n . neuhaus professor dpts of mathematics and msis the university of texas at austin | 0 |
Subject: london research group john , i am writing to you regarding the management of the london research group . as you know , dale surbey , who was managing the london unit of the research group , is moving to ebs . dale did a terrific job helping me to develop the pool of talent we have currently in london . given that dale is likely to be transfered to houston , it ' s time to nominate one member of the research group for a management position . my recommendation is steve leppard . steve emerged not only as the most technically qualified member of the group but also as a natural leader , highly respected by his peers and internal customers . steve has a very high energy level and is very efficient as a manager and as coach of new talent . his promotion is likely to cause anjam ' s departure form enron . i value technical skills of anjam , but in spite of my loyalty to him , don ' t think he is the same caliber as steve . however , i would not like to lose him and think about moving him to houston for 2 years . i think that the opportunity to work in houston , would be a sufficient incentive to keep him in enron . by the way , his performance feedback has greatly improved . please , let me know what you think . vince | 0 |

Subject: re : uk portfolios and books setup in risktrac naveen and matthew , i started looking systematically through uk positions and corresponding var numbers in the risckrac . i found a few inconsistencies so far . 1 . the portfolio elsb 1 - nbp has a book elsb 1 under it . the sum of delta positions for this book is 239 , 021 , 655 , the sum of gamma positions is - 211 , 031 , 450 . var for the portfolio elsb 1 - nbp is zero . the same refers to a few other portfolios , for example elsb 2 - nbp , elsb 3 - nbp , e 2 xxl - nbp . 2 . the portfolio elsbp 1 - ppp also has the book elsb 1 under it . this book contains the positions on pppwdl through pppwd 6 and pppwel through pppwe 4 . the same refers to the other books , for example elsb 2 . this looks messy . can someone in rac go over all the portfolios , all the corresponding books and curves in risktrac and make sure they are set up properly ? thank you , tanya . | 0 |
