Which of the following are considered asset based credit enhancements?
I. Collateral
II. Credit default swaps
III. Close out netting arrangements
IV. Cash reserves
A . II and IV
B . I, II and IV
C . I and IV
D . I and III
Answer: D
Explanation:
Credit enhancements come in two varieties: counterparty based, where the exercise of the credit enhancement requires a third party to pay, and this includes guarantees and CDS contracts. Asset based credit enhancements are based upon a physical asset in possession, and these include collateral and balances owed on other trades or transactions, and availed through close out netting arrangements.
Of the listed choices, I and III are asset based credit enhancements, and II is third party based. Cash reserves are not credit enhancements (unless held as collateral).
