European Supervisory Authorities highlight cross-sectoral risks

September 5, 2013--The Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) has published its second bi-annual Report on Risks and Vulnerabilities in the European Union's (EU) Financial System.

The Report has identified the following key cross-sectoral risks to the stability of the European financial system:

the weak macro-economic outlook;

the protracted low-interest rate environment;

EU financial sector fragmentation; and

reduced confidence in balance sheet valuations and risk disclosures.

These risks, already highlighted in the first Joint Committee's Risk Report published in April this year, have increasingly been brought into focus following a series of developments that took place since then. In particular, increased volatility in longer-term interest rates and concerns about the future path of interest rates-combined with the current low interest rate environment- created uncertainty for financial institutions in their hedging and impacted profitability.

European Commission-New rules for Money Market Funds proposed-FAQs

September 4, 2013--1. What is a Money Market Fund?
A Money Market Fund (MMF) is a mutual fund that invests in short-term debt such as money market instruments issued by banks, governments or corporations. Money market instruments traditionally include treasury bills, commercial paper or certificates of deposit.

The above-mentioned financial instruments are eligible for an MMF as long as their residual maturity does not exceed 397 days (short-term MMF) or two years (standard MMF). MMFs can be denominated in any particular currency; those domiciled in Europe mostly invest in debt denominated in euro, pound sterling or US dollar.

What is a constant value MMF?
A constant net asset value (CNAV) MMF is a fund that, unlike other mutual funds, seeks to maintain a stable €1 per share when investors redeem or purchase shares. The net value of the assets held by an MMF can, however, fluctuate, and the market value of a share may therefore not always be exactly €1. To avoid a fluctuating share value, a CNAV MMF uses amortised costs to value its assets.
