Jeffrey,
Hope all is well.
Further to your meeting, HE Sheikh Hamad asked me to send you a summary of the 2 investment
structures.
EQUITY PUT OPTIONSi
• Put option on the worst performing stock in a basket
• One year structure
• Coupon guaranteed irrespective of performance of the stocks in the basket.
• Put option strike at 70% of reference/spot
• Payoff if required in stock at 70% strike
• We identified 3 baskets based on stocks we are comfortable to own in a downside scenario at
a 30% discount.
• Basket 1; BHP Billiton, Bank of America, Shell, BNP Paribas
• Basket2; Credit Suisse, General Motors, BASF, General Electric
• Basket 3; Barclays, Adidas, Siemens, Santander
• The coupon on the above baskets ranges between 8.5 — 9.5% without any leverage.
• Obviously you can select any stock of your preference in the basket. Stocks with higher
volatility and less correlation will generate a higher coupon for the basket.
FIXED INCOME;
• We identified 20 investment grade names to place in a portfolio
• Given the uncertainty in the energy, commodity and bank sectors we selected some of these
names to maximize returns
• 5 year structure
• Exposure through 5 year CDS
• Based on leverage we are able to generate double digit returns.
• The risk to the return is margin calls on the leverage if the value of the portfolio declines due
to spreads widening.
• Principal risk is based on default in any of the credits in the portfolio which is limited to 5%
per name.
I hope the above is useful. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best
Shahzad.
