Re: Credit Trading - Approval Form

Tomas,

At first glance, this looks exactly like the type of process we're looking to
semi-automate using our new workflow tools. Later this week, we should have
a plan that includes this.

Regards,
Richard.

I agree that the current Word document approval form will not be very
practical once we scale up. Going forward, we could be looking at some kind
of database solution as implemented for EnronOnline.

Although this makes a lot of sense, how are going to implement it? We plan
to scale massively and I cannot imagine that this will be efficient enough to
facilitate the time frames and number of reference credits that we are
anticipating. I think that we need to have a general policy that we can look
to instead of approving them on a one off basis.

Let's discuss

Subject: Credit Trading - Approval Form

Attached is an Approval Form that will have to be completed to request if we
want to trade with a new counterparty or on a new reference credit. I have
incorporated comments from Origination, Credit and Legal. But should you have
any further comments please let me know ASAP, as I plan to introduce this
form by the middle of next week. (Note that there will be two forms, one for
bankruptcy swaps and one for other credit derivatives.)

Tomas
