BAFI 1026 Derivatives and Risk Management

Assessment 1: Group Case Study (20%)

Ø Group Formation

In this project, students will work in groups up to three students and submit your work as a group. Students must self-select a partner(s) to work alongside them. The cap of the group size is 3 members. You need to start the formation of your group from Week 1. If you fail to form a group by the end of Week 3 (7 August 2022), the teaching team will allocate the group in alphabetical order for you in Week 4.

You can look for your group members during your class hours or post a message on "Discussions Board" on Canvas. Alternatively, you can reach out to your local lecturers for assistance.

Register your group on Canvas. Please go to "People", Click on the tab Assessment 1 Groups; Select an empty group within your tutorial session. Then drag you and your group members into the same group. Please DO NOT randomly join groups without the consent of the existing group members.

After forming your group, please send the Declaration of Group Work Commitment (can be found under Assessment 1 on Canvas) to your tutor.

Any changes after week 3 are not allowed. Groups must be formed within the same tutorial sessions.

The tutor of your enrolled tutorial will mark your Assessment 1.

Few students might be allowed to do the project as an individual assignment, but this must be discussed with the course coordinator at the start of the semester. You have to provide solid evidence/reasons to support your willingness to solo the project. Any proposal after week 3 will be rejected.

Ø Assessment Task

The group needs to select one case from the following list and to conduct research on the background of the event, in order to understand the causes, consequences of the event and what can be learned from the event.

v Barings Bank’s bankruptcy in 1995.

v The bankruptcy of Orange County in California in 1994.

v Joseph Jett’s trading for Kidder Peabody lost $350 million.

v Allied Irish Banks scandal in 2002.

v Metallgesellschaft’s hedge on oil.

v In 2006 the hedge fund Amaranth lost $6 billion because of trading risks taken by Brian Hunter.

v In 2008, Jérôme Kerviel lost over $7 billion trading equity index futures for Société Générale.

v Delta CEO Admits To $4 Billion Lost In Hedging Fuel Costs in 2016.

v Lehman Brothers Bankruptcy.

v 9 sentenced to prison in Austrian bank fraud case – an Australian bank BAWAG.

v The bailout of American International Group (AIG).

In the report and the recorded presentation, the group is required to elaborate:

What happened to the main organizations that were involved in the selected event? (The background and what the story looks like). And what are the consequences to the organizations (e.g., direct monetary loss, loss of firm value in short term, damage to reputation, investors prospect for the industry/market, etc.).

Which type of derivative products were used and how they exacerbated the risk?

Why did risk management procedure not work in this failure?

What lessons can be learned by the institution?

How would you act if you were at the organization? Will you treat the firm’s account (transaction) differently from your own account? (Group members can have different opinions)

You can draft your report in any fashion, e.g., in an essay format or answering each question.

You are not required to use formulars or mathematical tools to conduct this assessment.

Ø Submission

One representative of the group needs to submit both report and recorded presentation by due date.

Report format

All submissions must be made electronically on Canvas, accompanied by a cover sheet. The submission must be using 1 or 1.5 spacing and 12-point Times New Roman font. Work that fails to meet these specifications will not be accepted. Students should ensure that the report is free from problems like copying and plagiarism (similarity rate should be below 35%).

You can submit multiple times before the due date and check your similarity report. The report should be no longer than 1500 words (-/+15 %), excluding references and appendix. The group can have up to 2-page appendix. Citations and references should be provided where necessary.

Recorded presentation

An application for extension of an assessment task of up to seven calendar days after the original submission due date must be lodged with the course coordinator via email, and where appropriate supporting documents such as a medical certificate in case of illness should be provided. If you're prevented from submitting an assessment on time by circumstances outside your control, you may apply in advance (at least one working day before the assessment deadline) for an extension to the due date of up to seven calendar days.
