Control the risk management processes by:

• Using “transparent”, liquid, market-based hedge instruments, eliminating any “mark-to-model” valuation uncertainty.
• Demonstrating prospective hedge performance and actual hedge performance using clear, easy to understand analytics.
• Minimizing secondary risks (volatility, counter-party, spread) by frequent review of the asset values and rate sensitivity and hedging with exchange traded securities with high predictability and almost no credit risk.
• Documenting risk management policies and procedures using proven templates developed by UCM.
• Documenting accounting policies and procedures using examples already approved by the major accounting firms for other users.
• Measuring and reporting actual hedge performance daily using clear analytics.
