Subject: reporting lines vince i ' ve just had a chat with richard , who feels strongly that the natural synergies between , and independence of , research and structuring will be best served if i report to tani . i expressed my concerns that i want to keep a strong link with : 1 . accountability to the trader sense of urgency , and 2 . traders ' willingness to spend money where necessary . richard suggested that we have a strong " dotted line " of reporting in to him , and that he will be available to support these areas . we ' ll meet regularly to keep richard in the loop . i filled richard in on the fact that i wish to change the nature , not just the size , of the research group , which will involve significant changes in headcount and investment in hardware / software . i ' ve no doubt that my main concerns of accountability and budget support will be met whether i report to richard formally or informally . tani has indicated that she ' d be prepared to have research report to her if required . all the best , steve

Subject: my model for spikes dear dr . kaminski , i was recently allowed to release into the public domain on the limited basis the first of the preprints that i recently authored on my model for spikes in power prices and for the valuation of the contingent claims on power . in this regard , i have just given a talk on this model at the joint seminar of the center for energy finance education and research and the institute for computational finance at the ut austin . right now i am also in the process of forming a list of specialists both in the industry and academia who might be interested in receiving this preprint . please let me know if you might be interested in receiving this preprint . i look forward to hearing from you . sincerely yours , valery kholodnyi manager of quantitative analysis research and analytics group txu energy trading ps . here are the main preprints that i have recently authored on my model for spikes in power prices and valuation of contingent claims on power : 1 . valery a . kholodnyi , the stochastic process for power prices with spikes and valuation of european contingent claims on power , preprint , txu - rag - 01 / 00 , july 2000 . 2 . valery a . khlolodnyi , valuation of a swing option on power with spikes , preprint txu - rag - 05 / 00 , august , 2000 . 3 . valery a . kholodnyi , valuation of a spark spread option on power with spikes , preprint txu - rag - 21 / 00 , november 2000 . 4 . valery a . kholodnyi , valuation of european contingent claims on power at two distinct points on the grid with spikes in both power prices , preprint txu - rag - 24 / 00 , november 2000 . 5 . valery a . kholodnyi , valuation of a transmission option on power with spikes , preprint txu - rag - 25 / 00 , november 2000 . as i have indicated to you in my previous e - mail , contrary to the standard approaches , i model spikes directly , as self - reversing jumps on top of a stochastic process for the regular dynamics of power prices in the absence of spikes . in this way the dynamics of power prices is modeled as a non - markovian process , even if the process for the regular dynamics of power prices is markovian . among other things my model for spikes allows for the explicit valuation and hedging of contingent claims on power with spikes , provided that the corresponding contingent claims on power can be valued and hedged in the absence of spikes .

Subject: re : seeking opportunity in computational finance dear vince : thanks for your response . i am not a programmer , nor a " quant " . i am an expert in excel and otherwise have advanced skills in the remaining msoffice suite . beyond that i have extensive experience working with research and computer progamming personnel on projects from networks to databases , and in particular , automation . for instance , the first generation of the risk analytics system that i designed for quantlab was done in excel . in subsequent generations of the system , excel served only as the gui - given its extreme flexibility - and a sql database operated underneath ( compaq servers , raid array ) , integrating real - time operations for all components of the system . the research team at quantlab used many leading edge modelling methodologies , such as genetic algorithms , neural networks , principal component analysis , kernel density estimation , fast kernel regression , hidden markov modelling and many other pattern recognition , walk - forward back testing , and other simulation techniques . i was the sole individual on a team of 17 that had any practical trading experience , and therefore , felt that i played a critical role in the application and implementation of each of the system components from data mining to research to signal generation to execution . beyond that , i was uniquely qualified to articulate the project ' s mission to investors , and therefore , was highly successful in spearheading support - financial and otherwise - from our network . althought i did not ask specifically , i surmise from your question that you are leading a research effort . i believe that my skill set is best served as a liaison between research and trading , since i speak both languages . i believe that i possess great vision and enthusiasim that could be leveraged in a group , project or product management role to integrate and streamline diverse systems and processes ; a common scenario in most proprietary development settings today . in closing , i would like to learn more about enron and the financial technology effort therein through further discussion with you , or if that is not appropriate , someone to whom you would be comfortable referring me . i look forward to your thoughts . best regards , paul - - - - - original message - - - - - from : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com [ mailto : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com ] sent : tuesday , november 14 , 2000 4 : 30 pm to : epr @ pipeline . com subject : re : seeking opportunity in computational finance paul , can you give me more information about your computer skills ? my group is very hands - on oriented and computer programming is a critical skill . vince " paul rowady " on 11 / 14 / 2000 04 : 09 : 43 pm to : " vince kaminski " cc : subject : seeking opportunity in computational finance dear vince : in following up on my voicemail message today , i attach my resume below for your review and consideration . it ' s ironic that you called while i was putting the message together . i will keep it short and look forward to speaking to you at your convenience . best regards , paul e . paul rowady , jr . 2300 west alabama , suite 69 houston , texas 77098 713 - 807 - 8624 home / fax 713 - 539 - 4541 mobile epr @ pipeline . com ( see attached file : paul rowady 2 . doc )

Subject: pac enrollment last year the enron political action committee ( pac ) launched a campaign to become a " million dollar pac " . enron employees , who provide all of the funding for the pac , responded and the enron pac reached its objective , becoming one of the largest corporate pacs . this year we face a new challenge . with the sale of eog , the announced sale of pge and normal employee turnover , we have lost a significant number of consistent contributors . we are seeking your support . if you are not a member , please join . if you are a member , we hope you will consider increasing your contribution . the enron pac is an essential tool in our effort to promote sound public policy . our pac funds support local , state and federal candidates , of both parties , who support open markets , deregulation and customer choice . amounts contributed may be used to make political contributions in connection with federal and state elections and are subject to the limits of the federal election campaign act . while our pac has grown thanks to our employee contributions , it still generates just a fraction of the expenditures of those who oppose these ideals . this year , as always , we face challenges and opportunities for every one of our businesses , including such issues as taxation and regulation of e - commerce , electric industry restructuring , regulation of derivatives , international trade and investment legislation , pipeline safety , local and state decisions affecting the siting and interconnection of power plants and a variety of environmental and tax issues . enron has a long and successful track record of supporting and advancing good public policy . that track record depends on access to and regular communication with , decision makers . the pac provides that access - - it shows policy makers that real voters care about what they are doing . one of the best things about enron is that we don  , t just take things as they are . we challenge the status quo . we ask why . we change things . the pac helps us do that . we need you to help the pac . sign up today - and please consider the following contribution guidelines : manager $ 500 / year director $ 750 / year sr . director / general manager $ 1 , 000 / year vice president $ 2 , 500 / year sr . vp / managing director $ 3 , 500 / year executive committee $ 5 , 000 / year all contributions are voluntary and these guidelines are merely suggestions . you are free to contribute more or less than the guidelines suggested and enron will not favor or disadvantage anyone by reason of the amount of their contribution or their decision not to contribute . you may refuse to contribute without fear of reprisal . only u . s . citizens and resident - aliens living in the u . s . can contribute to the enron pac . the maximum contribution is $ 5 , 000 per year per individual . an individual may not contribute more than $ 25 , 000 to all federal candidates and committees within a calendar year . the law requires that enron report name , address , employer and occupation for every person who contributes over $ 200 / year . no portion of any contribution is deductible as a charitable contribution for federal income tax purposes . thanks for your support ! sign up now , or revise your current contribution level by connecting with the pac intranet site : http : / / pacmembers . enron . com

Subject: precious metals var jason , after our brief discussion last night i think i should discuss a few of the issues i have with respect to calculating a var on the deal that you are proposing . the var model , as i illustrated , is set up to accept a term structure of delta positions , prices and vols and it may be difficult to translate the ' silver mine ' position into these inputs . i do not think that we can simply take the net silver content of the mine and then make some assumptions about vol and price . the var model also assumes a certain amount of liquidity in the market and a 1 day holding period . to do this properly i would need to understand fully how the deal is priced as these sensitivities are ultimately what will effect the change in mtm in the future and that is essentially what var is supposed to predict . if you need me to work on this then you need to contact steve who will help to prioritise my time . i will also need to consult with vince kaminski and tanya tamarachenko in houston for advice . rac will also assist in the process . please contact me if you have any further questions , kirstee x 34529

Subject: fw : london work hi , how are you ? london seems to be the same as when i left in august - no sun , cold , serious looking people , expensive , etc . in addition , we have had may day riots , a post office bombing , train strike , etc . not to mention all the excitement in enron credit . it would be nice to know who i am supposed to be reporting to . i am getting loads of conflicting messages - as illustrated in the forwarded email from vasant . according to you and slava , the strategy paper / duffie report seems to be a higher priority . however , vasant seems to indicate ( in his forwarded email ) that this is not the priority at the moment . in addition , there seems to be lots of chaos in enron credit - not only in the houston office , but even more so in the london office . this brings to mind a russian proverb i learned from slava when he expressed his views on the current state of enron credit - " a fish rots from the head . " finally , i would like to know exactly what you want me to write in this duffie report : do you want to hear what enron credit would like to hear - that all they need is for us to develop a private firm model for their exisiting " infrastructure " ? or do you want to hear what i really see , hear , read , etc . ? if the latter is true , then i may need to write two reports , because what i am learning does not look too good and would probably not make the enron credit personnel too happy . well , i think i have said enough for now . look forward to your feedback . thanks , iris - - - - - original message - - - - - from : shanbhogue , vasant sent : friday , may 04 , 2001 3 : 39 pm to : mack , iris cc : dhar , amitava subject : london work hi iris , amitava must have told you that both he and i are getting swamped with work here . as a result , we expect you to take the lead in scoping the enron credit project and making sure the infrastructure is readied . you should also make sure to understand the econometric / data analysis software side of the project - - this is probably more important than preparing a document for duffie right now . you should definitely sit with ben / george and actually run the software with them to get a feel for how it is to be used . but we also need to be able to try out potential other ways of analyzing data . both amitava and i will help as best as we can , and answer any direct questions , but we will have limited time to review documents , etc . i expect amitava to get heavily involved once data starts coming , but we expect you to have already set up the infrastructure etc for the data . hope the trip is going well . would you be extending the trip for some more time ? vasant

Subject: organization announcement enron purchases billions of dollars of products through its wholly owned subsidiaries and venture companies worldwide . historically , the company has conducted these purchases in a highly fragmented , decentralized manner allowing each of the operating units the discretion to source their requirements in a manner that optimizes unit performance . today , however , with the implementation of sap and the profound explosion in internet / intranet - based technologies , we believe the company should change its direction and focus on aggregating its demand for goods and strategically sourcing these requirements on a global basis . we believe that there are significant cash savings to be extracted by the company and also commercial potential for the formation of a highly profitable , business - to - business e - commerce venture . effective february 1 , 2000 , enron will form a new global strategic sourcing unit . this new unit will consolidate the current successful strategic sourcing initiatives underway in the gas pipeline group , global asset operations and enron corp . initially , global strategic sourcing will focus on aggregating enron  , s internal , joint venture and business partner demand for products and services with the objective of creating a future business - to - business e - commerce venture . it gives us great pleasure to announce that george wasaff , managing director , will lead this new global initiative . george will report directly to mike mcconnell , chief executive officer for global technology . george has been with enron for fourteen years and has held many senior executive positions , the most recent of which was managing director of enron south america ' s wholesale operations . george was also the interim chief executive officer of elektro from july 1998 through june 1999 and chief executive officer of transportadora de gas del sur s . a . ( " tgs " ) from june 1995 through february 1998 . george has also held numerous commercial positions including vice president and country manager , mexico for enron international and vice president of marketing for transwestern pipeline company . please join us in supporting this new global initiative and congratulating george in his new role with the company .

Subject: eol wti historical trade simulation - more profitable trading strategy please ignor my previous mail regarding the same issue , which contains some typos . greg and john , i found that by reducing the volume per trade and increasing daily number of trades ( keeping the total volume per day constant ) , we can be more profitable . this is partially because in a trending market we lose less money by following the market more closely . for example , suppose market move from $ 30 to $ 35 . if per trade volume is 10 , 000 bbl and the half bid - offer spread is $ 1 for simplicity , we take 5 trades of short positions , the total mtm for that day is ( - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 ) * 10 , 000 = - $ 150 , 000 and total trading volume is 50 , 000 bbl short . if per trade volume is 50 , 000 bbl , we take one trade , the total mtm is - 5 * 50 , 000 = - $ 250 , 000 . thus the net difference between the two trading strategies is $ 10 , 000 for that particular day . therefore it seems that by reducing per trade volume and increasing the number of trades , we can be more profitable as a market maker . i rerun a scenario that stinson sent to you on dec . 27 where he used per trade volume of 30 , 000 bbl . i reduce the number of trade to 10 , 000 while increasing the number of trades by factor of 3 . almost in all cases , i saw increased profitability . see the colume marked " change " for dollar amount change in millions . please let stinson or me know your thoughts on this . regards , zimin lu x 36388 as compared to

Subject: var david , during today ' s var coordination meeting we had a discussion of issues related to mapping of the forward price curves into core locations . mapping is a necessity dictated by the limitations of the computer system : we have to reduce the dimensionality of the problem to stay within the bounds of available cpu memory . also , in some cases the quality of price discovery is poor and it ' s difficult to model the price curves independently : we solve the problem by mapping them into more liquid and better behaved core locations curves . we have agreed on the following : 1 . winston will investigate the it side and determine to what extent we can increase the number of forward price curves that are simulated as basic ( core ) curves . he will investigate the impact of a larger number of the core curves on the time required to complete the var run . 2 . the curves associated with the biggest 10 - 20 positions in each commodity should be modeled as core curves ( i . e . no mapping into other locations ) . it makes sense to monitor the biggest risks separately and avoid aggregating them into less transparent aggregates . 3 . the results of an automated clustering ( mapping ) procedures should be systematically monitored by a human and corrected if they misrepresent the risks of the trading positions . this responsibility should be vested with one person ( right now the responsibility is dispersed through the organization and this means in practice that nobody is responsible ) . research can allocate one person to this task ; cooperation of trading and rac will be critical . vince

Subject: london exotica library migration fyi - exotic library : issue : the london version is different from the houston version . the problem is that some bugs in the london version were found . temporary solution : bugs were immediately fixed at a local level . permanent solution : the london exotic version will be replaced by the houston exotic version . the houston version is expected to be robust . sharad ( london research ) is spending this coming week in houston . when sharad is back to london , the houston version will replace the london version . approach : steven leppard is designing a regression testing procedure that will involve it to fully test the similarity of the two versions . the procedure is expected to take at least one month from commencement . hopefully , no discrepancies will be found . in the adverse case it happens , it will be necessary to conduct an analysis to decide what is wrong . if necessary further testing and development has to take place . rodrigo
