  8. Correspondent Bank • A correspondent banking relationship exists when two banks maintain deposits with each other. • Correspondent banking allows a bank’s MNC client to conduct business worldwide through his local bank or its correspondents.

  9. Representative Offices • A representative office is a small service facility staffed by parent bank personnel that is designed to assist MNC clients of the parent bank in dealings with the bank’s correspondents. • Representative offices also assist with information about local business customs, and credit evaluation of the MNC’s local customers.

  10. Foreign Branches • A foreign branch bank operates like a local bank, but is legally part of the parent. • Subject to both the banking regulations of home country and foreign country. • Can provide a much fuller range of services than a representative office. • Branch Banks are the most popular way for U.S. banks to expand overseas.

  11. Subsidiary and Affiliate Banks • A subsidiary bank is a locally incorporated bank wholly or partly owned by a foreign parent. • An affiliate bank is one that is partly owned but not controlled by the parent. • U.S. parent banks like foreign subsidiaries because they allow U.S. banks to underwrite securities.

  12. Edge Act Banks • Edge Act banks are federally chartered subsidiaries of U.S. banks that are physically located in the U.S. that are allowed to engage in a full range of international banking activities. • The Edge Act was a 1919 amendment to Section 25 of the 1914 Federal Reserve Act.

  13. Offshore Banking Centers • An offshore banking center is a country whose banking system is organized to permit external accounts beyond the normal scope of local economic activity. • The host country usually grants complete freedom from host-country governmental banking regulations. • Caymans, Switzerland, Why?

  14. International Banking Facilities • An international banking facility is a separate set of accounts that are segregated on the parents books. • An international banking facility is not a unique physical or legal identity. • Any U.S. bank can have one. • International banking facilities have captured a lot of the Eurodollar business that was previously handled offshore.

  15. Capital Adequacy Standards • Bank capital adequacy refers to the amount of equity capital and other securities a bank holds as reserves.

  16. International Money Market • Eurocurrency is a time deposit in an international bank located in a country different than the country that issued the currency. • For example, Eurodollars are U.S. dollar-denominated time deposits in banks located abroad. • Euroyen are yen-denominated time deposits in banks located outside of Japan. • The foreign bank doesn’t have to be located in Europe.

  17. Eurocurrency Market • Most Eurocurrency transactions are interbank transactions in the amount of $1,000,000 and up. • Common reference rates include • LIBOR the London Interbank Offered Rate • PIBOR the Paris Interbank Offered Rate • SIBOR the Singapore Interbank Offered Rate • A new reference rate for the new euro currency • EURIBOR the rate at which interbank time deposits of € are offered by one prime bank to another.

  18. Forward Rate Agreements • An interbank contract that involves two parties, a buyer and a seller. • The buyer agrees to pay the seller the increased interest cost on a notational amount if interest rates fall below an agreed rate. • The seller agrees to pay the buyer the increased interest cost if interest rates increase above the agreed rate.

  19. Forward Rate Agreements • Hedge assets that a bank currently owns against interest rate risk. • Speculate on the future course of interest rates

  20. Euronotes • Euronotes are short-term notes underwritten by a group of international investment banks or international commercial banks. • They are sold at a discount from face value and pay back the full face value at maturity. • Maturity is typically three to six months.

  21. Euro-Medium-Term Notes • Typically fixed rate notes issued by a corporation. • Maturities range from less than a year to about ten years.

  22. Eurocommercial Paper • Unsecured short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and banks. • Placed directly with the public through a dealer. • Maturities typically range from one month to six months. • Eurocommercial paper, while typically U.S. dollar denominated, is often of lower quality than U.S. commercial paper—as a result yields are higher.

  23. Debt-for-Equity Swaps • As part of debt rescheduling agreements among the bank lending syndicates and the debtor nations, creditor banks would sell their loans for U.S. dollars at discounts from face value to MNCs desiring to make equity investment in subsidiaries or local firms in the LDCs. • A LDC central bank would buy the bank debt from a MNC at a smaller discount than the MNC paid, but in local currency. • The MNC would use the local currency to make pre-approved new investment in the LDC that was economically or socially beneficial to the LDC.
