Financial liabilities held for trading are mainly negative fair
values of derivatives and delivery obligations that arise on the
short selling of securities. Securities are sold short to realise
gains from short-term price fluctuations.The securities needed
to settle short sales are acquired through securities lending
and repurchasing agreements. The fair value of the shares and
bonds sold short are amount to 581 (2016: 739).
to retained earnings as a result of derecognition of financial
liabilities designated at fair value (2016:0).
The carrying value of the structured notes is 5,223 (2016:6,236)
lower than the amount Rabobank is contractually obliged to
repay to the holders of the structured notes. This difference is
mainly attributable to the effect of zero-coupon notes of which
the accrued interest is not due until final redemption.
The change in fair value that is attributable to changes in own
credit risk is calculated by deducting on a note by note basis
the current fair value of the structured notes portfolio at the
reporting date from the fair value recalculated based on the
prevailing credit curve at the time of origination, with all other
pricing components unchanged.This calculation reflects the
amount that can be attributed to the change in the own credit
risk of Rabobank since the origination of these structured notes.
