Derivative Financial Instruments


The fair value of exchange-traded derivative financial instruments is based on quoted market prices. The fair value of OTC derivative financial instruments is estimated using well established valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow techniques, the Black-Scholes model, and Monte Carlo simulation. The valuation models incorporate inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived from observable market data.


Prices derived by using models are recognized net of valuation adjustments. The inputs used in the valuation models depend on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument and are specific to the instrument being valued. Inputs can include, but are not limited to, interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates, dividend yield projections, commodity spot and forward prices, recovery rates, volatilities, spot prices, and correlation.


A credit risk valuation adjustment (CRVA) is recognized against the model value of OTC derivatives to account for the uncertainty that either counterparty in a derivative transaction may not be able to fulfill its obligations under the transaction. In determining CRVA, the Bank takes into account master netting agreements and collateral, and considers the creditworthiness of the counterparty and the Bank itself, in assessing potential future amounts owed to, or by the Bank. In the case of defaulted counterparties, a specific provision is established to recognize the estimated realizable value, net of collateral held, based on market pricing in effect at the time the default is recognized. In these instances, the estimated realizable value is measured by discounting the expected future cash flows at an appropriate EIR immediately prior to impairment, after adjusting for the value of collateral. The fair value of non-trading derivatives is determined on the same basis as for trading derivatives. The fair value of a derivative is partly a function of collateralization. The Bank uses the relevant overnight index swap curve to discount the cash flows for collateralized derivatives as most collateral is posted in cash and can be funded at the overnight rate.


A funding valuation adjustment (FVA) is recognized against the model value of OTC derivatives in response to growing evidence that market implied funding costs and benefits are considered in the pricing and fair valuation of uncollateralized derivatives. Some of the key drivers of FVA include the market implied cost of funding spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and the expected average exposure by counterparty. FVA is further adjusted to account for the extent to which the funding cost is incorporated into observed traded levels and to calibrate to the expected term of the trade. The FVA applies to both assets and liabilities, but largely relates to uncollateralized derivative assets given the impact of the Bank’s own credit risk, which is a significant component of the funding costs, is already incorporated in the valuation of uncollateralized derivative liabilities through the application of CRVA. The Bank will continue to monitor industry practice, and may refine the methodology and the products to which FVA applies to as market practices evolve.


Deposits


The estimated fair value of term deposits is determined by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for deposits with similar terms.


For deposits with no defined maturities, the Bank considers fair value to equal carrying value, which is equivalent to the amount payable on the balance sheet date.


For trading deposits, fair value is determined using discounted cash flow valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market inputs such as benchmark yield curves and foreign exchange rates. The Bank considers the impact of its own creditworthiness in the valuation of these deposits by reference to observable market inputs.


Securitization Liabilities


The fair value of securitization liabilities is based on quoted market prices or quoted market prices for similar financial instruments, where available. Where quoted prices are not available, fair value is determined using valuation techniques, which maximize the use of observable inputs, such as Canada Mortgage Bond (CMB) curves.


Obligations Related to Securities Sold Short The fair value of these obligations is based on the fair value of the underlying securities, which can include equity or debt securities. As these obligations are fully collateralized, the method used to determine fair value would be the same as that of the relevant underlying equity or debt securities.


Securities Purchased Under Reverse Repurchase Agreements and Obligations Related to Securities Sold under Repurchase Agreements


Commodities purchased or sold with an agreement to sell or repurchase them at a later date at a fixed price are carried at fair value. The fair value of these agreements is based on valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow models which maximize the use of observable market inputs such as interest rate swap curves and commodity forward prices.


Subordinated Notes and Debentures


The fair value of subordinated notes and debentures are based on quoted market prices for similar issues or current rates offered to the Bank for debt of equivalent credit quality and remaining maturity.


Other Financial Liabilities Designated at Fair Value For deposits designated at fair value through profit or loss, fair value is determined using discounted cash flow valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market inputs such as benchmark yield curves. The Bank considers the impact of its own creditworthiness in the valuation of these deposits by reference to observable market inputs. The Bank currently issues mortgage loan commitments to its customers which allow them to lock in a fixed mortgage rate prior to their expected funding date. The Bank values loan commitments through the use of an option pricing model and with adjustments calculated using an expected funding ratio to arrive at the most representative fair value. The expected funding ratio represents the Bank’s best estimate, based on historical analysis, as to the amount of loan commitments that will actually fund. If commitment extensions are exercised by the borrower, the Bank will remeasure the written option at fair value.


Portfolio Exception


IFRS 13 provides a measurement exception that allows an entity to determine the fair value of a group of financial assets and liabilities with offsetting risks based on the sale or transfer of its net exposure to a particular risk or risks. The Bank manages certain financial assets and financial liabilities, such as derivative assets and derivative liabilities on the basis of net exposure and applies the portfolio exception when determining the fair value of these financial assets and financial liabilities.


Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities not measured at Fair Value The fair value of assets and liabilities subsequently not measured at fair value include loans, deposits, certain securitization liabilities, certain securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements, obligations relating to securities sold under repurchase agreements, and subordinated notes and debentures. For these instruments, fair values are calculated for disclosure purposes only, and the valuation techniques are disclosed above. In addition, the Bank has determined that the carrying value approximates the fair value for the following assets and liabilities as they are usually liquid floating rate financial instruments and are generally short term in nature: cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, customers’ liability under acceptances, and acceptances.
