Market and Credit Risk Management


Total Return Swap (TRS)

A total return swap (TRS) is an agreement (bilateral contract) between two parties − the buyer and seller of protection − whereby the seller of protection takes on not only the credit risk of the reference product, but also its market risk. The buyer of the protection is typically a bank that wishes to transfer its exposure arising from holding a credit instrument (bond) to the seller of the protection. The latter receives a fixed or floating rate of interest (premium) in exchange for the (total) return on the reference product in question. If the issuer of the reference product (bond) defaults before the maturity of the total return swap, the seller of the protection must bear the loss.1
