Objectives of Capital Market Investments

Goals should be expressed in terms of risk and return and should conform to the organization’s investment policies

Capital preservation is not necessarily the primary goal for capital investments

Guidelines to consider:◦ Risk preferences for the portfolio◦ Return objectives◦ Liquidity needs◦ Time horizons or future needs for funds◦ Tax issues◦ Legal or regulatory factors (especially for pension

funds) Asset Allocation Decision

L-T, Fixed Income Portfolio Mgmt. Many of the issues are similar to those

covered in Chap 11 (Money Markets) Concept of Duration◦ Primary measure of risk for a bond portfolio◦ Weighted average maturity of investment◦ Measure of sensitivity of the investment to

changes in underlying interest rates◦ Bond prices move inversely to interest rates

Interest Rate Risk◦ Longer term bonds will fluctuate

more in price for a given changein interest rates than shorter term bonds

Other Issues in Debt Portfolio Mgmt.

Fixed/Floating Ratio◦ Usually expressed in terms

of a target ratio

◦ May be too narrow to be used on its own

Foreign Currency Denominated Investments◦ FX derivatives may be used to manage risk

Using Derivatives in a Long-Term Debt Portfolio◦ Use of credit default swaps, in addition to futures

forwards and options

Asset-Liability Management◦ Especially a problem when S-T funds are borrowed

to fund L-T investments

© 2015 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 22

Equity (Stock) Portfolio Mgmt. Defining and Measuring Investment Risk◦ Expected return and standard deviation◦ Use of covariance in portfolio management

Benefits of Diversification◦ Reduces the overall riskiness of a portfolio

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)◦ Beta is a measure of relative market risk◦ In a diversified portfolio, Beta is the only relevant measure to

an investor CAPM – Model Relationship

Determining Portfolio Risk & Return One of the biggest benefits of using CAPM and

Beta is the ability to determine a portfolios average return and overall riskiness as a function of simple weighted averages

Using the stocks from the previous slide with weights of Apple(A) = 70% and Heinz(H) = 30%

© 2015 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 25

Portfolio β = (% of A-Stock β ) + (% of H-Stock β )

= (.70 1.5) + (.30 0.60) = 1.23

A H

Port. Return = (% of A-Stock r ) + (% of H-Stock r )

= (.70 11.0%) + (.30 5.6%) = 9.38%

A H

E RF M RF Portfolior r (r r )

= .02 + (.08 .02)(1.23)= 0.0938 or 9.38%

Bond or Fixed Income Valuation Valuation of bonds or any fixed income

security is generally fairly easy Concept of Yield to Maturity (YTM) Some bonds have call provisions (YTC) Concept of Yield to Worst (YTW)◦ Can also be used with other types of bonds

to determine the impact of all potentially negative provisions (pre-payments, sinking funds, etc.)

© 2015 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 26

Valuation of Long-Term Securities

Publicly traded corporate securities are valued by financial markets

The value is based on the cash flow stream expected by the investor as well as the relevant discount rate:

◦ Where: PV0 = Current value of the assetCFt = Cash flow in period tki = Opportunity cost for asset i

Payments Fraud A major concern for all organizations

Many use positive pay, ACH filters and blocks, and daily reconciliations to help detect and control payments fraud

Some best practices◦ Check stock with security features

◦ Segregation of duties

◦ Dual authentication for EFT transactions

◦ Reduction/elimination of non-repetitive wires

◦ Separate accounts for receipts & disbursements

◦ Dedicated computer for all on-line EFT transactions

Card payment fraud is becoming a bigger issue
