Interest Rate Risk
• The Federal Reserve’s monetary policy is the most
direct influence on the level and movement of short-
term interest rates

Repricing Gap Example

Rate-Sensitive Assets
Examples:
• Short-term loans
• T-Bills, T-Notes (of various maturities)
• Floating-rate long-term loans
Question:
Will or can this asset have its interest rate changed within the
planning horizon?
•Yes? Rate-sensitive.
• No? Not rate-sensitive.
9
Rate-Sensitive Liabilities
Examples:
• Term deposits (of various maturities).
• All roll-over credits, such as certificates of deposits (CDs), commercial papers
Question:
Will or can this liability have its interest rate changed within the planning
horizon?
• If Yes, Rate-sensitive.
• If No, Rate-insensitive.
•For liabilities with maturity shorter than the planning horizon, refinance rate
changes with the market interest rate when refinancing (i.e., borrow from market to
finance the liability).

Example: Simple FI Balance Sheet

Rate-Sensitive Assets
What are the RSAs on the balance sheet (wrt one year repricing horizon)?
• Short-term consumer loans: $50 million.
– Repriced at the end of the year and just make the one-year cut-off.
• Three-month T-bills: $30 million.
– Repriced on maturity (rollover) every three months.
• Six-month T-notes: $35 million.
– Repriced on maturity (rollover) every six months.
• 30-year floating-rate mortgages: $40 million.
– Repriced (i.e., the mortgage rate is reset) every nine months.
– Rate-sensitive assets in the context of the repricing model with a one-year
repricing horizon.
13
Demand Deposits
Reasons Against Inclusion in RSL
• The explicit interest rate on demand deposits is zero by
regulation
• Many demand deposits act as core deposits for FIs,
meaning they are a long-term source of funds.
Where:
∆NIIi = change in net interest income in the i-th bucket,
GAPi = the dollar size of the gap between the book value of assets and
liabilities in maturity bucket i,
∆Ri = the change in the level of interest rates impacting assets and
liabilities in the i-th bucket.
• Repricing Gap (or Funding Gap): The difference between RSA & RSL
– Positive gap (RSA > RSL), exposed to the risk of interest rate
decrease
– Negative gap (RSA < RSL), exposed to the risk of interest rate
increase

The Repricing Model
Example
•Consider the following repricing gaps (in $ million).
• If the overnight interest rate rises by 1%, then:
∆NIIi = $25 million × 0.01 = $250,000.
17
The Cumulative Repricing Gap
• For a specific planning horizon (e.g., one year), what is the effect of
interest rate change on the net interest income?
•
•The Cumulative Gap (CGap): the difference between all RSAs and RSLs
with repricing date shorter than the planning horizon
∆NIIi = (CGAPi)∆Ri
18
Example: Cumulative Gap
•Calculate Cumulative Gap based on the previous table
– The cumulative gap for 1-year horizon is $-65 million
•Assume ∆Ri = 1% is the average rate change that affects assets and
liabilities that can be repriced within a year.
•→ ∆NIIi = (CGAPi)∆Ri = (-$65 million) (0.01) = -$650,000.
19
Unequal Changes in Rates
20
Spread Effect Example
Example:
• Assume that RSAs & RSLs both equal $155 million.
• Suppose that rates rise by 1.2% on RSAs and by 1% on
RSLs (i.e., the spread between the rates on RSAs and
RSLs increases by 1.2% − 1% = 0.2%).
• The resulting change in NII is calculated as:
• NII = (RSA × RRSA ) - (RSL × RRSL)
= Interest revenue - Interest expense
=$155mil*0.2%=$310,000

2) Over-aggregation
• Defining buckets over a range of maturities ignores
information regarding the distribution of assets and
liabilities within those buckets
Example:
• Liabilities may be repriced toward the end of the bucket’s range,
while assets may be repriced toward the beginning, although the
dollar amount may be the same.
• The bank would show a zero repricing gap for the three-month to six-
month bucket.
• The bank’s assets and liabilities are mismatched within the bucket.
25
Example: Over-aggregation
• The bank would show a zero repricing gap for the three-month to six-month bucket.
• However, the bank’s assets and liabilities are mismatched within the bucket.

27
Weaknesses of the Repricing Model
Example
• An FI might have hedged its interest rate risk with an interest rate
futures contract.
• As interest rates change, these futures contracts produce a daily cash
flow that may offset any on-balance-sheet gap exposure.
• These offsetting cash flows from futures contracts are ignored by the
simple repricing model and should be included.
