Abstract We exploit the expiring nature of hedge fund lockups to create a new measure of funding liquidity risk that varies within funds. We find that hedge funds with lower funding risk generate higher returns, and this effect is driven by their increased exposure to equity-mispricing anomalies. Our results are robust to a variety of sampling criteria, variable definitions, and control variables. Further, we address endogeneity concerns in various ways, including a placebo approach and regression discontinuity design. Collectively, our results support a causal link between funding risk and the ability of managers to engage in risky arbitrage.

AbstractFunding risk measures the extent to which a fund can borrow money by posting collateral. Using a novel measure of funding risk based on futures margins, we are able to empirically identify the mechanism by which changes in funding risk affect the likelihood of contagion. An increase in margins of the order of magnitude observed during the subprime crisis increases the probability of contagion among certain types of funds by up to 34%. Our analysis shows that some types of hedge funds are more vulnerable to contagion than others. Our results also suggest that policies that limit the magnitude of changes in margins over short periods of time may reduce the likelihood of contagion among hedge funds.

Background: More bona fide adjustments aimed at appraising counterparty risks and financial expenses related to over-the-counter derivative have become indispensable after the European sovereign debt catastrophe and the 2007/08’s world-wide fiscal crisis. The most notable measures include DVA, CVA and FVA. Methods: This paper advocates the application of XVA scheme to assess CVA, DVA, and FVA for managing risk and pricing of financial or OTC derivatives. Results and Discussion: A foundation formula is formulated and tested against different risk scenarios of CVA, DVA, FVA, and KVA using cross referenced data. Practical advices are provided for real industry application of XVA. Conclusion: Compared to traditional risk management in financial market where funding risk, credit risk, and default risk are accounted separately, the approach proposed by the current study monitors the multiple types of risk in a comprehensive framework and is more practically effective from financial operation point of view.
