G10: While there has been much focus on the sustainability of Italy and Spain
in recent months, a more pernicious risk has started to be more openly
discussed, the possibility of a Euro-area break-up. Our view has always been
that such an outcome would have dire global systemic implications (see
Exchange Rate Perspectives; December 2010). Indeed, our base case
remains that such an outcome will not materialize.
EMEA:Gamma positioning is lighter across the board in EMEA FX. Currentgamma positioning is not prohibitive to our view - USD/TRY to stay in the
1.70-1.90 range in the near term. Unwind of long vol positions going into year
end - combined with the moderation in implied vols - means we could see
rebuilding of long vol positions going into January.
LatAm: We present our main views and strategy recommendations for LatAm
FX. We recommend maintaining exposure to MXN by switching to shortCAD/MXN and to position for a temporary retracement in BRL with zero-cost
1M USD/BRL put spreads. We also recommend maintaining short EUR/CLP
and long USD/PEN. We remain constructive on COP with a medium term
perspective, but recommend avoiding exposure as we approach the usually
complicated end of the year. We remain bearish on the ARS but the NDF
curve has already incorporated enough depreciation at longer maturities.
Nevertheless, some investors may find attractive receiving carry in the short-
end of the curve.

G10 FX OutlookWaiting For European Policymakers
While there has been much focus on the sustainability of
Italy and Spain in recent months, a more pernicious risk
has started to be more openly discussed, the possibility of
a Euro-area break-up. Our view has always been that such
an outcome would have dire global systemic implications
(see Exchange Rate Perspectives; December 2010).
Indeed, our base case remains that such an outcome will
not materialize. A somewhat crude and imperfect
measure of assessing the markets pricing of a partial euro
break-up would be to compare how Greek government
bonds issued under English law (ie euro bonds) are
trading relative to those issued under Greek law. In the
event of a Greek exit, it would be more straightforward for
the Greek government to re-denominate bonds issued
under local law than it would under international law. So if
the markets do believe in (say) Greek exiting the euro,then Greek sovereign bonds under international law
should trade at a premium to local bonds, which has
indeed become the case (see first chart). Therefore in
addition to steps being taken to help stabilize Italian and
Spanish bond markets, such as Thursdays ECB actions
and the likely EU summit over the coming weekend, steps
must also be taken to reduce the pricing of a Euro-area
break-up.
The most obvious step that helps stabilize sovereign
bonds markets and also reduce potential fiscal transfers
between countries would be for the ECB to use its
balance sheet more efficiently by aggressively buying
Euro-area bonds. This may result in near-term short-
covering in the euro, but such rallies would likely be
limited not lease because the euro has started to trade
less with risk markets such as the AUD and S&P500.
Therefore, the underlying downtrend in the euro would
likely continue (see second chart).
Looking Back
As this is our last FX Strategy Weekly of the year we will
be publishing our FX Blueprint for 2012 in the new year, it
is interesting to review G10 currency performance over
2011. Amazingly, all currencies, except for JPY, are within1.5% of where they were at the start of the year. The JPY
has rallied by 4.5% against USD, and so has been the only
G10 currency that has had a meaningful move.
Interestingly, such a narrow divergence of currency
performance has occurred despite wide divergences in
interest rate moves. For example, Australian 2y yields fell
over 150bps in 2011, while Uk 2y yields fell only 20bps,
yet the currencies of both has similar moves (see third
chart). 2011 will be a lesson on how currency drivers can
easily change.

EMEA FX: Gamma positioning update
Gamma positioning is lighter across the board in
EMEA FX
Current gamma positioning is not prohibitive to our
view - USD/TRY to stay in the 1.70-1.90 range in thenear term
Unwind of long vol positions going into year end -
combined with the moderation in implied vols means
we could see rebuilding of long vol positions going
into January
The first takeaway from the positioning update is that
positions are by and large lighter when compared 2 or 3
weeks ago. This can be seen in one of two ways - the first
is that the outright magnitude of positions is smaller (this
week there are virtually no +/- 4 or 5 positions) and
secondly that market makers are now slightly long gamma
- reflective of unwinding their earlier long positions.
In USD/TRY Market Makers are short gamma above 1.90 -
suggesting upward pressures if we are to break this level.
Positioning also suggests that spot is likely to be 'sticky'
at levels around 1.80, as evidenced by the fact that market
makers are long gamma by the magnitude of +2. Finally,
no significant gamma position exists at strikes below
1.80. All in all this suggests that movements in USD/TRY
spot is not likely to be driven by gamma positioning. As a
reminder to our readers - we expect the lira to be broadly
range-bound between 1.70 and 1.90. The upside in
USD/TRY will be limited by CBT intervention/policy and
expectations that the CA adjustment will become more
visible in the coming months due to domestic demand
weakening and loan growth deceleration. At the same
time the downside in USD/TRY should be confined to
around 1.70 - reflecting that downside risks to growth
have increased but also that any narrowing of the C/A
deficit is likely to be gradual and from high levels.
EMEA FX - ZAR and CE-3 in particular - have been among
the worst hit currencies in all of EMFX this year. CE-3 has
been hit primarily for its close ties to Europe and mediocre
carry/vol, while it seems the rand has been the default risk
on/off currency for much of the year. In all of HUF, PLN
and ZAR, market makers are now long gamma at strikes
close to spot and around 2-4% north of spot. Themoderation in implied vols since late November/start of
December combined with a lightening up of gamma
positioning suggests investors could start rebuilding paid
positions with market makers going into January.

LatAm FX: Main views and trade
recommendations
We present our main views and strategy
recommendations for LatAm FX.
We recommend maintaining exposure to MXN by
switching to short CAD/MXN and to position for a
temporary retracement in BRL with zero-cost 1M
USD/BRL put spreads.
We also recommend maintaining short EUR/CLP and
long USD/PEN.
We remain constructive on COP with a medium term
perspective, but recommend avoiding exposure as
we approach the usually complicated end of the year.
We remain bearish on the ARS but the NDF curve
has already incorporated enough depreciation at
longer maturities. Nevertheless, some investors mayfind attractive receiving carry in the short-end of the
curve.
Argentina
Managing a difficult trade-off. The pressure on the
currency continues to increase but the central bank seems
engaged in avoiding any meaningful depreciation. Amid
increasing volatility in global financial markets, the ARS
has weakened approximately 1% per month during the
last 2 months. In our view, the government will find
increasingly difficult to continue with this strategy due to
the combination of worrisome levels of capital flight anddouble digit inflation. Additionally, the bleeding of
international reserves has accelerated after the
implementation of the latest FX measures. The freely
available reserves -those in excess of the monetary base
at the current exchange rate- have now disappeared. If the
government insists in using the central bank as financing
source, the pressures in the currency will continue to
mount. Nevertheless, the NFD curve is already pricing a
depreciation of 30% in 12M, which might be excessive.
Due to elevated risks and low liquidity we recommend
avoiding exposure to this curve, but some investors may
find attractive the elevated carry in the front-end (1M
offers 31% implied yield versus 3% depreciation).

BrazilPotential for short-term retracement. The BRL as
other liquid EM currencies- has suffered from increased
volatility on the back of developments in core markets.
This has favored our long 1M FVA position, which has
reached its target. The better tone in risk sentiment after
the coordinated action by main central banks, and the
potential intervention of the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB) in
the FX market, could help BRL to recover. However,
behind the short-term overshooting, the currency is still
overvalued from a more fundamental perspective.
Additionally, carry is expected to decrease further as the
central bank continues easing monetary conditionsaggressively with a focus on economic activity. Moreover,
both the trade balance and current account are expected
to deteriorate amid a reduction in FDI flows. As a
consequence, we recommend positioning for potential
short-term retracement with zero-cost 1x2 USD/BRL put
spreads, but maintaining a neutral stance at longer
horizons.
Chile
At the tone of global growth. During next year, the CLP
will continue to be affected by the continuous revisions ofexpectations regarding global growth and copper prices. A
soft landing of China and the finalization of the rule-based
intervention could benefit the CLP and counteract the
potential setback from reduction in carry due to monetary
easing. The main short-term risks are related to the direct
and indirect effects of a potential escalation in the
European crisis. We recommend maintaining a short
EUR/CLP position (entry: 690, target: 660, stop: 685)

Colombia
Constructive on fundamentals but beware of short-
term risks. Fundamentals keeps improving the medium-
term prospects for the COP, but the usual end-of-year
scarcity of USD in the local market create some pressure
on short-term points, increasing the volatility during the
next weeks. The favorable trade and fiscal performance
observed during this year is expected to continue during
2012, and strong FDI flows will more than compensate a
growing deficit in the current account. The latest activity
and inflation data suggest that Banrep will continue to
tighten monetary conditions early into next year. Together
with lean positioning, the recovery in carry could act as
important short-term driver. Nevertheless, the recent
underperformance of the COP is a reminder that the
currency could also suffer from a more challenging global
environment, particularly as technical factors play a role at
the turn of the year. As a consequence, we recommend
remaining on the sidelines, waiting for better entry levels
at the beginning of next year.
Mexico
Policy mix may reduce currency volatility. MXN was
one of the currencies which suffered the most fromrecent market volatility. Nevertheless, the recently
announced rule-based intervention by Banxico (will offer
USD400mm whenever the currency weakens by more
than 2% in a day) was successful in curbing the MXN
depreciation and may help to reduce its volatility. The
effectiveness of the intervention could be increased due
to the important MXN undervaluation and extreme short
positioning MXN is clearly undervalued both from a short-
term perspective based in recent evolution of financial
drivers and from a much longer valuation based on
macroeconomic fundamentals. Additionally, in our view it
will be difficult that Banxico eases monetary conditions
unless the currency appreciates considerably. We
continue to find attractive maintaining exposure to the
peso, even when acknowledging the potential risks posed
by the external environment. We recommend taking
profits in our long MXNCZK recommendation and
switching to short CADMXN (entry: 13.38, target: 13.10,
stop: 13.50); this cross still offers some positive carry
while offering protection against US risks.
MXN: Intervention may reduce volatility
Peru
Risks are biased toward depreciation. The successful
Central Bank intervention in the FX market has shieldedthe PEN from the recent volatility in global financial
markets. However, as the currency continues to trade
close to multiyear high levels, the intervention has helped
to increase the currency overvaluation. While the central
bank will likely continue to intervene aggressively to
smooth the currency movements and capital flows may
still be favorable, the risks, in our view, are biased toward
depreciation. Next year, the currency will receive less
support both from economic growth and terms of trade.
We recommend maintaining 3M USD/PEN NDF (entry:
2.72, target: 2.80, stop: 2.68).

Risks to Fixed Income PositionsMacroeconomic fluctuations often account for most of the risks associated with exposures to instruments that promise to pay
fixed or variable interest rates. For an investor that is long fixed rate instruments (thus receiving these cash flows), increases in
interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a loss. The longer the
maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be the loss. Upside surprises in
inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adverse macroeconomic shocks to
receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation (including changes in assets
holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency convertibility (which may constrain currency
conversion, repatriation of profits and/or the liquidation of positions), and settlement issues related to local clearing houses are
also important risk factors to be considered. The sensitivity of fixed income instruments to macroeconomic shocks may be
mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to FX depreciation, or to specified interest rates these are
common in emerging markets. It is important to note that the index fixings may -- by construction -- lag or mis-measure the
actual move in the underlying variables they are intended to track. The choice of the proper fixing (or metric) is particularly
important in swaps markets, where floating coupon rates (i.e., coupons indexed to a typically short-dated interest rate
reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. It is also important to acknowledge that funding in a currency that differs
from the currency in which the coupons to be received are denominated carries FX risk. Naturally, options on swaps
(swaptions) also bear the risks typical to options in addition to the risks related to rates movements.
