Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 122 / Friday, June 24, 2011 / Proposed Rules
provider. An FCU must operate
according to the third party pilot
program standards when it is approved
to engage in derivatives activities
through an approved third party. NCUA
therefore seeks comment on the
approval standards for an FCU seeking
to engage in derivatives activity through
a third party.
Question No.
1. Should NCUA require an FCU to
state a balance sheet management plan
to hedge IRR based on risk management
objectives as a condition for approval?
Explain why or why not.
2. Is it useful for an FCU to rely on
the expertise of a third party to assess
the effectiveness of derivatives to hedge
IRR on an ongoing and dynamic basis or
should the FCU be required to
demonstrate it has this expertise
internally as a condition for approval?
In either case explain why or why not.
3. Is it useful for an FCU to rely on
the expertise of a third party to assess
the credit quality of derivative
counterparties? Explain why or why
not.

E. Approval To Engage Independently
NCUA expects that approving an FCU
to independently engage in derivatives
activity would require extensive
examination of the applicant FCU and
also would require enhanced
supervision. This approval would be
similar to the granting of expanded
authority for a corporate credit union
under recently revised Part 704, 75 FR
64786 (Oct. 20, 2010) and would require
a self-assessment by the FCU to support
its request. The NCUA Board would
expect an FCU to address the following
items prior to granting approval for that
FCU to engage in derivatives activities
independently:
i. Board of directors’ policy
identifying the specific purposes of
specified derivatives activities and
stating limits on maximum exposure in
terms of notional principal amounts and
mark-to-market values of individual and
aggregate swaps;
ii. Ongoing assessment and reporting
to the FCU’s board of directors of
derivative performance in achieving
explicit interest rate risk management
objectives;
iii. Selection criteria for eligible
counterparties that address the process
of identification and credit monitoring;
posting of bilateral collateral and
process for maintenance of available
collateral;
iv. Disclosure of derivative price at
time of purchase expressed as dollar
values of a basis point on each
derivative instrument;

Jkt 223001
v. Disclosure of costs of terminating
any derivatives in the course of
pursuing any exit strategy.
NCUA would expect the FCU’s board
of directors to review policy
periodically, to review the FCU’s
derivatives positions on an ongoing
basis, and to actively enforce
compliance with the stated IRR
management purpose of derivative
activities.
Question No.
1. Should approval of an FCU to
engage in derivatives activities be in the
form of additional authorization similar
to the expanded authority available
under Appendix B to Part 704—
Expanded Authorities and
Requirements? Explain why or why not.
2. Should an FCU demonstrate
enhanced credit functionality in terms
of the experience of the FCU’s
personnel, credit analysis and reporting
infrastructure in order to evaluate the
creditworthiness of derivative
counterparties? Explain why or why not
and describe any minimum expectation.
3. Should an FCU demonstrate
enhanced hedging expertise based on
the experience of FCU’s personnel or on
additional derivatives management
infrastructure? Explain why or why not,
and describe any minimum expectation.
4. Is one year a sufficient amount of
time for an FCU to fully prepare a selfassessment and application for approval
to independently engage in derivatives
to offset IRR? Explain why it is
sufficient or why more time may be
required.
5. Are there any additional aspects of
the FCU besides items (i)–(v) above
which NCUA should consider in its
approval for the FCU to engage in
derivatives activity independently? If
so, explain why the item should be
considered.
