The following structure and guidelines are provided to assist you in writing your group report.
• Executive summary or synopsis
Your report must include an executive summary.
An executive summary essentially summarises the entire report. Note that a simple Google search of “RMIT Executive Summary” yields the following result: https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/learninglab/content/beginning.
We advise you to read through this if you do not know what is expected for an executive summary. The best way to understand executive summary is the following: Your senior manager is a very busy person and will most likely not have the time to read through the report, hence an executive summary is a way to communicate the entire report as an “overall” picture. Please note that the executive summary counts towards the word count for the report.
• Introduction
The answer to the following questions will make a decent Introduction:
• What is the name of your organisation? ANSWERED
• Are you a bank or corporation?
• What are your objectives – both primary and secondary?
Renault, a major corporate treasury within the automotive industry was in dire needs of funds to make payment for upcoming expenditures. This was made possible through a French bank that acted as our debtor finance facility however the $720M funds provided were in EUR currency, therefore in order to make payments, we had to convert these funds into the correct currencies which essentially made up our primary objectives. We had to make 12% coupon payments within the next 2 days, for the $4.8M Yankee bonds that were issued exactly 6 months ago as well as make a lease payment in Great British Pound (GBP) to avoid foreclosure of our Renault factory located in the UK. All these payments had to be acquired as cheaply as possible. Our secondary objective involved taking a particular view on one currency pair and having to speculate the movement of it’s exchange rate over the next 6 month period.
• How do you plan to achieve your objectives at the beginning of the dealing session?
Essentially, our aim was to get through the primary objectives as effective and efficient as possible, and acquire the correct currencies as cheaply as possible. Time played a massive factor and therefore we had to make a rough time schedule as to what objective we should have completed around a certain time period.
• What factors does your particular group need to take into account in trying to achieve your objectives?
There were a number of factors that we as a group had to take into account when achieving our objectives.
• Time: We had just under than 3 hours to complete all objectives therefore having a rough time schedule on approximate objective
• Market View
You must have a market view prior to the commencement of your second trading session as you will be trading according to your view as a group during that session.
The market view and your strategy (based on that view) are critically important components of the report. You will not get a passing grade on the report without these components.
You are required to provide your Market View report as a group based on your three individual market views submitted previously. This will form part of your final report.
In your group market view, you should provide some prediction on the currency pairs you have analysed for the next three months. You will have to state whether the foreign exchange rates value will go up or down. Do not simply quote other people’s opinions. You should present your opinion, and explain in your own words why you hold that opinion in a way that shows that you understand the theories behind the determination of the exchange rates (topic 2 and 4B). You can certainly quote evidence that supports your opinion, and this evidence must be correctly referenced (do not submit copies of your collected articles with your report). For your view, you should use at least five references.
FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC DATA SHOULD BE SOURCED FROM THOMSON REUTERS EIKON.
For the final report, please review your market view presentations again and write a summary of your market view. Do ensure that you incorporate the feedback received from your trading instructors about your market views. It is critical to understand that the market views are linked to the rest of the report, therefore having subpar market views will result in the rest of the report also being subpar.
• Trading strategy
In your Dealing room sessions, you will be assigned certain objectives.
• First explain how you intend to achieve your primary objective. It is possible that you may have devised some tools or engines that helped you to get an idea of when to square for If you have, please discuss it! It is encouraged and unique strategies are rewarded if explained properly. Anything that you feel may have helped you prepare for your dealing session should be discussed here. Note that if you’re a corporation you will probably have a scenario that involves you to trade currencies that are not a part of your market view; this is expected. If you’re a bank you’ll need to devise an appropriate trading strategy as you will be most likely dealing with all 5 currencies.
• Then, look at your secondary objective and given your view about current and future market conditions (based on your market view), you should devise a strategy that you will try to implement during the This strategy will specify how you will go about achieving your secondary objectives in a way that benefits your organisation – which currencies you will buy or sell. Alternatively put, for the secondary task, you need to devise a trading strategy that directly involves what your market view was. For example, if you predict that in the next 3-6 months that the AUD will depreciate against the USD, how would you set up a trading strategy to take advantage of this depreciation? Where appropriate, you should also devise a speculation strategy which will allow you to create a portfolio of currencies which will enable your organisation to take advantage of your predicted changes in the exchange rates.
• Performance analysis
The market views and trading strategy combined were your plan “expectation” for the dealing simulation. Now, you will write about what actually happened in the dealing session. The performance analysis is about comparing the real outcomes with your initial expectations.
• Discuss what actually happened during the Were you able to use your strategy? Why or why not? Did you achieve your objectives? Why, or why not? Justify.
• Use the output from your accounts section to discuss your performances: what are your final positions, realised profit or losses, average rates, Ultimately, to what extent have you been able to complete your tasks (primary and secondary)? Report how your profit or loss was made. To clarify, your profit or loss can be made by two different ways: 1. It is made by negotiating market rates such that you buy low, sell high. 2. The profit/loss calculation in the trading system uses the mid-market rate supplied by Eikon to calculate your opening balance in the AUD, and your net closing balance in the AUD. You would be required to carefully study your trading reports in order to determine whether if the profit figure comes from (1), (2), or both. In addition to that, a good idea would be to refer (a group of) trades that could have really put your group in a good position. For example, “Trades 15-21 and 24 is where we got a really good deal and managed to raise the JPY for the lowest cost possible, therefore contributing to our minimal losses incurred”. Making specific reference to your trades is recommended.
• Do you feel that you have set up your organisation to take advantage of movements in exchange rates, if they move as you have predicted? Why or why not? (This is more important than making a profit during the ). This requires you to compare what your trading strategies were, against the movement of the spot rates during the three hour dealing session. You should justify why your trading strategies worked or failed. For example, at the end of the FX session, did you finish up being long or short of AUD, rather than maintain a square position as desired?
• Can you identify any transactions where you have bought and sold the same currency and made a profit or a loss? If you were buying a currency, how far were you off your benchmark? How the rates that obtained do compare to the rate/prices for the day?
• If you are a corporate, you are unlikely to make a profit for your primary objective over the course of the There will be profit only if you have bought and sold the same currency at favourable rates. It is important to comment on whether you have set up your organisation so that it will be able to take advantage of future movements in the rates (minimise cost).
• Looking at your trade corresponding to you secondary objective you should explain which currencies you have bought and sold expecting to make a profit in the next few month based on you market
• Justify your actions and your final positions to your Senior If you made an error during the session, explain what occurred and what you have learned from it.
• Analyse the session in terms of how you performed as a How did you divide your responsibilities? Outline what your learned from the session. How could you improve in future sessions?
The idea of the performance analysis is to fully justify your final positions to your senior manager. It is ok to make mistakes, and you will not be penalised, for example, if you don’t achieve a profit in the secondary objective. What we are looking for is for you to be able to fully justify your final positions and to explain any errors that you may have made in the dealing session, and why you made them, rather than analyse you directly on performance (profit). The only time we consider your performance in the dealing session is if we notice that you have made extremely few trades (to quantify, this would be 10 trades or less), or for determining the bonus mark that will be awarded to the best bank and corporation.
