| NOTES: |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The Benchmark
Rates are Weighted Averages |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| of the relevent
Moving Average, the Best, Mid |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| and Worst Case
scenarios. Greater weights are |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| assigned to the Mid
Rate, and to the Best/ Worst |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Rate depending
on the situation. |

The Benchmark is NOT a forecast. It encapsulates all possibilities. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The rationale
is to combine Market History |
|
Based on that, we also figure out possible
deviations. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (through the
Moving Averages) and the |
|
|
These then help us plan the Hedge Ratio and
Strategy |

Forecasts (Best, Worst, Mid) to |
|
|
To put it another way, if you achieve the
Benchmark Rate for your exposures |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| arrive at a
Benchmark, so as to cover all |
|
|
you are achieving a mixture of all the possible
rates envisaged. |

leaving the least room for bias |
