DB-Synthetic Equity & Index Strategy-Europe-ETF Handbook Series-Currency hedged ETFs

July 17, 2013--Volatile FX markets create demand for hedged ETFs
2013 is the year of the hedged ETF
The range of currency hedged ETF listings has grown at an unprecedented pace in 2013 as investors demand new hedged exposures.

This is partly a response to increased FX volatility, which can offset investment gains (Figure 1). The availability of currency hedged ETFs gives investors increased choice: the ability to decide whether to overlay a currency view on top of a market view, or to isolate a pure market view irrespective of currency.

That investors value the opportunity to detach equity and currency views in a cross-border investment is illustrated by cashflows into hedged ETFs this year. By end June, total AUM in hedged ETPs globally was in excess of USD 21bn – more than a 100% increase over Dec-2012 AUM. 2013 has seen significant new issue activity in the hedged ETF space. Europe has seen 35 new listings. The issuance of new hedged ETFs in the US this year has been unprecedented: Issued and registered for issue funds would more than double the total number of hedged ETFs available to investors at the end of 2012.

Deutsche Bank's currency strategists believe that we remain in the early stages of a broad-based dollar strengthening and yen weakness. Further currency moves are likely to prompt greater demand for hedged products.

This report focuses on currency hedged ETFs but also touches on the growing range of other hedges available, including interest rates and equity volatility.

Costs and risks
Currency hedged ETFs typically have higher TERs than comparable unhedged ETFs. Any costs arising from hedging will be reflected in NAV. Hedging can result in foregone gains from a weaker home currency.

IMF-United Kingdom: 2013 Article IV Consultation

July 17, 2013--KEY ISSUES
The economy remains a long way from a strong and sustainable recovery. Despite recent improvements in economic and financial conditions, recovery will be protracted.

Domestic deleveraging pressures remain, while external demand is still weak. Looking ahead, activity is expected to pick up only gradually. Risks remain to the downside, with the key risk being permanent damage to the economy’s productive potential.

A multi-pronged policy strategy is needed. Securing growth momentum and rebalancing the economy are vital to boost incomes and income expectations, ensure the sustainability of public debt, and support bank balance sheets.

A multi-pronged policy strategy is thus needed to address both demand and supply constraints that the economy faces. In particular:

ESMA consults on non-EU counterparties OTC derivatives

July 17, 2013--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has launched a consultation on draft regulatory technical standards (RTS) aimed at implementing the provisions of the European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) related to OTC derivative transactions by non-European Union (EU) counterparties in certain cases, and aimed at preventing attempts by non-EU counterparties to evade EMIR's provisions.

The Consultation Paper clarifies the conditions where EMIR's provisions regarding central clearing or risk mitigation techniques would apply to OTC derivatives by two non-EU counterparties which have a direct, substantial and foreseeable effect in the EU. The proposed RTS would only apply when two counterparties to the same transaction are established outside the EU, their jurisdictions’ rules are not considered equivalent to EMIR, and where one of the following conditions are met:

one of the two non-EU counterparties is guaranteed by an EU financial counterparty for at least €8bn of the gross notional amount of OTC derivatives entered into and for an amount of at least 5% of the OTC derivatives exposures of the EU financial counterparty; or

the two non-EU counterparties execute their transactions via their EU branches.
