Jeffrey,
Our London desk was able to improve the ATMF strike to 11.15% and their offer still at 2.4% (1.9% mid) on this trade.
Given the trade has little delta at inception, our desk is able to set the initial strikes for the structure at market on close
today for all markets (SPX, EEM, 5)(5E, HSCEI, NKY), even though Asia has already closed. Attached is a draft term sheet
for the trade.
Regards,
Daniel

Jeffrey,
Per our conversation, we received your order to bid on this structure at the indicated terms for $100k premium
(—$4.166mm notional). As discussed, we communicated your overnight order to our London desk and we will revert
tomorrow on whether the transaction has been executed.
Thank you,
Daniel

Jeffrey,
As we look at the world, the enormous dispersion of monetary and fiscal policies is obvious. One transaction we have
used in the past to articulate this theme, and it trickling down to equity markets, are calls on dispersion. This is an OTC
transaction in which a client pays a premium and receives a payout based on the average realized dispersion across
global markets. It is a way to be economically short correlation and long volatility across markets, similarly to
outperformance index options. I have plotted the historical ly average realized dispersion between 58&500,
EuroStoxx50, Nikkei, EEM and HSCEI to illustrate.
