1 Trading the new BDIFutures contract Mikal Boe Imarex Asia Pte Ltd Wednesday 18th June 2008
2 fast growing commodity exchange World s only regulated market for freight swaps, futures and options Hybrid exchange model with Brokers, E-Trading (Exchange) and Clearing Founded 2000 IPO 2005 (OSE: IMAREX) market cap appr NOK 2 Billion 15% owned by NYMEX Holdings (acquired Oct 2007), 295 employees worldwide Commodites worth US$200 billion traded via IMAREX Group in 2007 Over US$10 billion in freigth traded electronically on IMAREX screen in 2007 Global dry bulk and tanker freight futures and options (15% / 50% market share)
3 Imarex Group services and markets The Group serves its members and clients around the world working in four main operational sectors of the commodity markets. Regulated exchanges and electronic trading platforms Derivatives clearing and settlement Derivatives and physical commodity brokerage Commercial market research and analyses services IMAREX Group operates across the four operational sectors in the following markets: Dry bulk and tanker freight derivatives UK, Nordic and European energy derivatives European and US emissions derivatives Physical UK, European and US natural gas markets Crude oil and middle distillates derivatives Nordic salmon and seafood derivatives London Metals Exchange derivatives Weather derivatives Physical coal Nuclear fuels Trade via direct membership or via general Clearing Members
4 Who Trades at Imarex? Global client base for NOS Clearing and IMAREX All the main commodity traders are present 200 CLEARING members in Q2 2008
5 Electronic trading on the IMAREX screen The IMAREX trading screen is the ONLY successfully liquid trading screen in the freight derivatives market Screen activity: 5000 transactions / quarter lots / quarter USD 5 Billion + /quarter Members trade DIRECT on screen or via IMAREX brokers in Oslo, Houston, London and Singapore ALL prices are FIRM and therefore transparent Clearing affords complete anonymity to traders when trading on screen Screen is open 24 Hrs per day
6 The Dry Bulk FFA market in 2008 $125 billion notional value expected in million lots traded 2007 Priced in US dollars per day (equivalent to time charters) Trades differently than tankers Contracts are in # of days, not in Worldscale Fewer trades, though larger notional values Price discovery can be choppy Market heavily dependent on handful of voice brokers
7 The growth of clearing for Dry Bulk FFAs 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% OTC Cleared e 2009e 2010e sees growth in clearing from 1% to 30% Liquidity still low with relatively few but very large contracts traded every day Clearing has brought more new market participants, but still very shipping focused Clearing is primarily OTC clearing Clearing should enable electronic trading, market now looking for a screen traded model Model for future development may come from the tanker FFA market where small contracts are traded frequently in large volumes.
8 A new tool for dry bulk investors Dry bulk shipping is booming The BRICs are forecast to continue driving commodity demand for up to 20 years How can you invest in this growth story? 1. BUY dry bulk shares on NYSE, NASDAQ. LSE and OSE 2. Trade FFAs 3. Trade Commodity related ETFs or Now BDIFutures, a new tool for dry bulk investors Simple index future on the main dry bulk indicator BDI Tradable electronically cleared at NOS Clearing or via clearing banks and brokers MINI contracts where 1 LOT = $1 per index point Trade on direction Trade as Hedge against dry bulk equities Trade as spread against FFAs LIVE on IMAREX screen 24hrs per day
9 Introducing the Baltic Dry IndexT A composite of global shipping costs for bulk commodities such as grains, ore and coal on 26 shipping routes for supramax, panamax and capesize vessels (BSI, BPI and BCI) Indices and BDI based on daily professional assessments from panel of international ship brokers Previously the Baltic Freight Index closed in 2001 BIFFEX traded as forward market on LIFFE BIFFEX failed as a hedging tool for physical shipping now using FFAs Most public dry bulk shares closely tied to movement in BDI (up to 93% correlation) BDI composition: 26 individual shipping routes Making up 4 separate sector indices Handysize, supramax, panamax and capesize vessels BHSI, BSI, BPI and BCI + Index multipliers
10 Physical routes making up the Baltic Indices C mt Gibraltar/Hamburg trans Atlantic RV 25% C mt Continent/Mediterranean trip Far East 25% C mt Pacific RV 25% C mt China/Japan trip Mediterranean/Cont 25% CS4TC P1A 74000mt Transatlantic RV 25% P2A 74000mt SKAW-GIB/FAR EAST 25% P3A 74000mt Japan-SK/Pacific/RV 25% P mt FAR EAST/NOPAC/SK-PASS 25% PM4TC S1A mt Antwerp - Skaw Trip Far East 25% S1B mt Canakkale Trip Far East 25% S mt Japan - SK / NOPAC or Australia rv 12.5% S mt Japan - SK Trip Gib - Skaw range 12.5% S mt US Gulf - Skaw-Passero 12.5% S4B mt Skaw-Passero - US Gulf 12.5% HS mt Skaw / Passero - Recalada / Rio de Janeiro 12.5% HS mt Skaw / Passero - Boston / Galveston range. 12.5% HS mt Recalada / Rio de Janeiro -Skaw / Passero 12.5% HS mt US Gulf / NC South America - Skaw / Passero 12.5% HS mt SE Asia via Australia - Singapore / Japan 25% HS mt S Korea/Japan - Singapore/Japan range incl. China 25% SM6TC HM6TC
11 Other physical routes making up the Baltic indices C2 C3 C4 C5 C7 C mt Brazil (Tubarao) Rotterdam mt Barzil (Tubarao) China mt Richards Bay/Rotterdam mt West Australia/China mt Columbia/Rotterdam mt Gladstone/Rotterdam Percentage contribution towards the BDI depends on each individual route s assessment. Approximate composition is as follows: CS4TC 23% PM4TC 29% SM6TC 17% HM6TC 9% C2-C7 & C12 22% TOTAL 100%
12 Challenges for dry bulk equity investors Physical dry bulk shipping is a fragmented and opaque market sector with a high degree of insider influence Price movements of Dry bulk shipping equities are closely tied to freight rates and the BDI Freight rates vary from ship to ship, ocean to ocean and from sector to sector no shipping share is 100% tied to one trade route at any time Experience of substantial equity losses caused by factors far outside their field of knowledge The FFA market has substantial volatility caused by unrelated insider influence and pure-paper market activity
13 Elegant solutions using Imarex BDIFutures BDIFutures is an Index futures contract based on BDI Using the BDIFutures contract, investors and stock portfolio managers can protect the value of the shipping equities from upside and downside price risk of the broader dry bulk market The Imarex BDIFutures contract can be traded in lots as small as $1 per point providing low barriers to entry 24hr electronic trading with very low transaction fee Imarex is world s only regulated market for freight derivatives
