Here are four trades - 3 I like right now and 1 for now or soon. EFTA01196190 1) BUY 10y BTPS @ 3.16% - This is a 3-6mth 'buy the rumour sell the fact' tactical trade to position for ECB QE (now) The ECB is preparing both itself and markets for QE - Its senior board members have stepped up public comments over the past 48hrs. This is the clearest sign so far QE could happen and why I am writing to you now. Ideally ECB wants to buy ABS from small to medium sized European companies but the outstanding available is relatively small so it will likely buy Eurozone Government Bonds. The spread between Italian BTPs and German Bunds has tightened significantly past 18months but old metrics of value make no sense in Europe because they rely on history when there was no QE. While It's hard to get excited about lOy BTPs yielding 3.16% (164bp over 10Y German Bunds) I'd still have 5-10mm 10y BTPs in my portfolio both for the duration and spread compression potential. I prefer 10y over 5y because the recent nearly parallel spread compression has left 5s10s steep relative to 0-5s.. 3 reasons i like this trade: i) macro investors view ECB QE as a second bite at the cherry. Everyone I talk to wants European risk assets having seen QE in the US. ii) ECB QE is probably still 3-6mths away which will keep credit bid. This will be a buy the rumour sell the fact trade iii) Credit has been bulletproof during the recent risk selloff because a) ECB QE expectations, b) G3 rate hikes are being pushed into the future while cash has nowhere else to go. This price action is telling - as and when equities recover i think credit continues to tighten Yields of 10Y Italy, 10y Germany and the Yield Spread SPREAD SUMMARY Last 164.78 Mean 2342757 Off Avg -69.4957 Median 214.7206 StDev 122.7606 -26.7 StDev from mean -0.5661 Low: 3.166, Percentile 39.0966 High 11/09/11 552.5662 Low 08/10/09 66.9182 e, -so 1110 LW me 2009 2010 I 2011 I 2012 I 2013 1 2014 GBTPGR10 Index (Italy Generic Govt 10Y Yield) Copyrights 2014 Bloomberg Finance 14-Apr-2014 16:21:57 2) Tactically position for higher EURUSD - 2 week view (now) BUY EUR50mm 2week expiry 1.40 strike European Style EURUSD Calls @ 6bp (EUR30,000) This is a low cost contrarian short term tactical call. Most investors myself included are bullish USD EFTA01196191 in the medium term (see trade 3) but in the very short term I see EURUSD higher because: i) Despite ECB preparing the markets for QE, the price action of EURUSD (broadly unchanged) has been quite bullish compared to what one would expect ii) Speculators don't appear long EURUSD to us. Majority are short or flat. iii) implied volatility is 5.25% (offer for 2week options) which is very very low historically. So this is a penny option, highly convex, pain trade bet against other speculators betting on QE If my view is wrong 6bp is lost. If I'm right I'd plan to exit in a week making 4-6x Scenario Analysis - Premium in bp of EUR notional EURUSD call option prices Spot 1.382 Spot At exp lw 2w 1.42 141 142 145 1.41 71 76 84 1.4 0 24 37 1.39 0 4 11 1.382 0 1 4 « 4bp is mid mkt, offer is 6bp 3) Position for a Stronger Dollar - lyear view (now or soon) Buy 1y expiry European style digital binary option on EURUSD struck 5% below spot @ 21% of payout (which i think is too cheap) Current strike (spot - 5%) would be 1.3120 At expiry if EURUSD has fallen by more than 5% from current levels the option payout is EUR1mm. Upfront premium is EUR210k. The option is liquid and can be unwound at any time. i) Yellen has done a poor job of communicating the Fed's thinking but its increasingly clear the Fed will brake later than usual ii) Betting on higher US interest rates in the rates market isn't cost effective because the forward curve is already pricing in higher rates iii) The Dollar hasn't appreciated yet because short rates in the US haven't risen meaningfully iv) THE KEY POINT - FX volatility is very low in currency pairs like EURUSD where central bank policy on each side is increasingly diverging. The low vol makes this bet inexpensive to put on. v) Because FX vol is so low betting now or soon with a one year time horizon costs very little. id rather be early than late here vi) i prefer 1y expiry because this trade could take 6-12mths to play out 111EURUSD VOL: Low - but then again most most vols are What I like about EURUSD is that central bank policy on each side is diverging EFTA01196192  20.0000 • Last Price 7.2650 T High on 12/31/08 19.5225 18.0000 -9- Average 10.9287 1 Low on 05/31/07 5.80.00 16.0000 14.0000 12.0000 10.0000 8.0000 7.2650 6.0000 '99 '00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 '14 EURUSDV1Y Curncy (EUR-USD OPT VOL 1Y) Monthly 011AN1997-14APFt2014 Copyrigtne 2014 Bloomberg Finance LP. 14-Apr-201416:49:49 This Table shows mid-market premiums (in % of notional) as spot and time change.

We were unable to get the BBVA issue at the right levels. A very similar bond which has rallied 30bp less than the BBVA is the Nationwide (UK Building Society) 6.875% perpetual which currently yields 6.4% and is likely to be called in 5years time. It has a tierl capital trigger of 7% and current tierl capital ratio is 13% which is fair margin.
