Have had problems with my computer but I found this memo unread.
dev12
(May be because I have 2000 emails).
dev12
Should we still pursue this?
dev12
I know Jack is working on copper mines.
dev12
Maybe you guts started without me getting involved.
dev12
Lets discuss.
dev12
Rick
dev12
How is progress on this?
dev12
Rick
dev12
Mark- here is my response to your request.
dev12
Call with questions.
dev12
Goal: Total Foreign Exchange Exposure quantified and communicated to BOD.
dev12
Performance: Project completed with final tranche of results reported to Finance Committee Dec 11.
dev12
The notional exposure as well as impact on potential impact on earnings and CTA accounts have been quantified and reported to the BOD over the past year according to a schedule that has strictly adhered to.
dev12
Also, a template and process has been established to be able to easily report changes in the future.
dev12
Enron has never had a comprehensive review of FX exposure prior to this activity.
dev12
As an aside, there has been a fair amount of hedging activity resulting from this effort.
dev12
Goal: Establish risk and trading control processes for risks unique to EES.
dev12
Performance: Systems have been established and monitoring controls are in place across EES.
dev12
A thorough study of the DSM business has been completed and the results presented to the Finance Committee.
dev12
A RAC task force has been put in place which has established a work plan consisting of 53 elements that EES has agreed to put in place to get the overall back office and trading and credit control systems where they need to be.
dev12
Significant progress has been made against these recommendations.
dev12
DSM projects have been spot tested with outside measurement firm and the results reported to EES.
dev12
These tests have highlighted focus areas to determine where the capital dollars are best employed.
dev12
Goal: Solidify the global risk management policy beyond Houston and London.
dev12
Performance: Complete and Ongoing.
dev12
During 2000, Project Doorstep was initiated by RAC which inspected every office within Enron to determine if trading was taking place and if so whether the Enron controls were being adhered to.
dev12
A data base system was developed to routinely prompt surprise inspections of these offices and also monitor if the recommendations are being adhered to.
dev12
Doorstep was a huge effort involving RAC, AA, and operations to really understand where we have risks.
dev12
It also helps in defining where we don't have responsibility such as EOTT, Azurix and The New Power Company.
dev12
test
dev12
fyi, rick
dev12
have been unable to return your call.
dev12
will do tomorrow.
dev12
it has been crazy here to say the least.
dev12
rick
dev12
No- the conclusion is incorrect.
dev12
The peakers help to mitigate the risk created by market positions.
dev12
Maybe just change the last sentence to read "Because the peakers offset the contract, the VAR is substantially reduced. " Rick
dev12
Just met w/ Skilling and Whalley.
dev12
Var for gas has temp increase of $15MM until next friday (12/15/2000).
dev12
Jeff is calling for an executive comm mtg to ask for an additional $40 MM of corp var until next wed (12/13/2000).
dev12
One issue is UK power will be over VAR everyday starting probably thurs or fri of this week, unless we increase them as well.
dev12
(They sweep retail deals into book once a week on this day).
dev12
This increase only needs to be $2-3- million.
dev12
Fasten seat belts and apply oxygen masks.
dev12
Rick
dev12
good info.
dev12
i don't believe there will be many more "ei" type asset acquisitions any time soon.
dev12
rick
dev12
Thanks, we are in bounds for the moment.
dev12
Rick
dev12
tx- caps were eliminated so this should improve??
dev12
rick
dev12
will not attend, tx rick
dev12
Send him what was in books but no notes.
dev12
Tell him it changes daily in a huge way.
dev12
Tx Rick PS I stopped down earlier to thank you for a great job on the BOD meeting.
dev12
See you at 4:30.
dev12
thanks, they do a great job and are an under-appreciated asset at enron.
dev12
rick
dev12
Per your voice mail I would like to defer 100% of my ECT Phantom Stock into the Stable Asset fund.
dev12
I only want to defer that which I have to defer due to my Section 16b status.
dev12
Thanks, Rick Buy
dev12
Probably a smart decision.
dev12
Rick
dev12
Need your help on the following: Each day we are delayed in finalising var, p&L and positions because the UK must wait for a USD interest rate curves before submitting their data to Houston.
dev12
I am also told that it is really not necessary to wait for this curve and the data could be submitted close of business London.
dev12
Even if there was some minor inaccuracy from this method it would be better than what we have now.
dev12
This would greatly improve the efficiency (by 4 to 6 hours) in reporting to senior management.
dev12
Can you guys initiate this change or get me to the right person there.
dev12
Thanks, Rick
dev12
Everyone in RAC is invited to attend Underwriting mtg on Friday at 10:30 am.
dev12
Rick
dev12
fyi, please respond, tx rick
dev12
Deal needs to go to Skilling (or OOC) because capital price exceeds return.
dev12
Otherwise Frevert could sign.
dev12
I am authorised to sign for Jeff up to $25 MM after I leave him a voice mail.
dev12
After I review deal I will voice mail Jeff and that should work.
dev12
Rick
dev12
fyi, rick
dev12
fyi, rick
dev12
Thanks for note.
dev12
Mike Jordan in UK is coordinating an effort on this.
dev12
I'm worried we have more than initiative going on here.
dev12
Hopefully everyone will coordinate.
dev12
Rick
dev12
ok, but can't do anything until jan.
dev12
rick
dev12
I have two nominations for MD and one for VP.
dev12
VP David Port MD Ted Murphy Dave Gorte All of the above would be in the Specialized Technical category.
dev12
Call me if a problem, Rick Buy
dev12
The continued growth of the Enron Europe office and related businesses has prompted a change in the management of Risk Assessment and Control (RAC) in London.
dev12
Effective in early January, 2001, Ted Murphy will transfer to the London office and mange the RAC activities which include credit and market risk and underwriting.
dev12
Ted will continue to manage the Enron Global Market Risk activities.
dev12
Steve Young, currently managing RAC in London, will begin a new assignment within EBS, also in London.
dev12
The Houston Market Risk group will be managed by David Port As Enron continues to expand its trading and risk management businesses, it is vital that trading and credit policies are administered in a consistent and accurate manner across the company.
dev12
Hopefully this realignment will accomplish that goal.
dev12
Please join me in congratulating Ted, David and Steve on their new assignments.
dev12
I would like Bill Bradford there unless someone is trying to llimit headcount.
