MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
MD&A
The distribution of our daily net revenue for the portfolios has been affected by periodic valuation
adjustments as outlined in the notes to the preceding Trading and Underwriting Net Revenues
versus Market Value Exposure graph.
Structural Market Risk
Structural market risk is comprised of interest rate risk arising from our
banking activities (loans and deposits) and foreign exchange risk arising
from our foreign currency operations. Structural market risk is managed
by BMO’s Corporate Treasury group in support of high-quality earnings
and maximization of sustainable product spreads.
Structural interest rate risk arises primarily from interest rate
mismatches and embedded options. Interest rate mismatches result
from differences in the scheduled maturity, repricing dates or reference
rates of assets, liabilities and derivatives. Embedded option risk results
from product features that allow customers to alter scheduled maturity or
repricing dates. Embedded options include loan prepayment and deposit
redemption privileges and committed rates on unadvanced mortgages. The
net interest rate mismatch, representing residual assets funded by common
shareholders’ equity, is managed to a target duration, which is currently
between two and three years, while embedded options are managed to
low risk levels. The net interest rate mismatch is primarily managed with
interest rate swaps and securities. Embedded option risk exposures are
managed by purchasing options or through a dynamic hedging process.
Structural foreign exchange risk arises primarily from translation
risk associated with the net investment in our U.S. operations and from
transaction risk associated with our U.S.-dollar-denominated net income.
