(Purchase-Sale)*
The position exchange rate * 100%
The
own capital (VND)
Note: On the effective date of
this Decision, credit institutions shall determine by themselves the original
position (the foreign currency position (t-1)) on the basis of Form No. 2.
- The total foreign currency
long position shall be the total positions of foreign currencies, which are in
a long position.
- The total foreign currency
short position shall be the total positions of foreign currencies, which are in
a short position.
2. Form 02: Report on foreign
currency position at the end of the month (the account balance method)
- The original foreign currency
position shall be equal to the total balance of accounts 4911, 4921, 9231,
9232, 9233 and 9234. Any account that has the credit balance, shall take plus
sign (+), any account that has the debit balance, shall take minus sign (-).
- Other foreign currencies: to
report only foreign currencies with position that is > 1% or < -1% of the
own capital.
- Since the accounting for
domestic and international foreign currency conversion activities has not been
consistent between banks (For example: most of banks have recorded these
activities to the account 491, some other banks have recorded them to the
accounts 499 and 561 or accounts 499 and 561 and then transfer to the account
491 when there is the balance in the account 491). Therefore, the new form
mentions the account 491. During the process of implementation, if there is any
obstacle, credit institutions should make their proposals to the State Bank on
how to gather data under their own accounting method in order to ensure that
the foreign currency position calculated under the account balance method (Form
02) can reflect fully foreign currency conversion transactions domestically and
internationally. After the consideration of proposals of credit institutions,
the State Bank of Vietnam shall provide written guidance on how to gather data
for the calculation of the foreign currency position at the end of the month
(Form 02), which is used as the basis for inspection activities.

- The foreign currency position
at the end of the month in accordance with Form 02 shall be the criteria to
adjust and ensure the accuracy of daily foreign currency position in accordance
with Form 01.
- In principle, the foreign
currency position of each foreign currency in relation to the own capital at
the last working day in the month under the accumulated turnover method (Part
II Form 01) must approximately be equal to the foreign currency position data
in relation to the own capital, which is calculated under the account balance
method (Form 02) (there is a small error because of exchange rate difference).
- In case where the error is in
the interval of 3%: credit institutions shall adjust by themselves the foreign
currency position of the day where the foreign currency position calculated
under the account balance method (on the 10th monthly at the latest) is
available and use it as standard original position for the following day. In
the form 02, Credit institutions should clearly state the specific error
between foreign currency position of each foreign currency: EUR, USD, JPY which
is determined under the account balance method (Form 02) and the accumulated
turnover method (Form 01) of the last day of each month, at the same time
clearly state the date where this error is adjusted.
- In case where the error is
larger than 3%: credit institutions must submit a written explanation, stating
clearly the reasons for the error, ways to tackle the erroneous situation and
proposals; at the same time to adjust the data to make it accurate.
Ways to adjust the data:
Example: The following table is
the collection of US$ positions of the bank A in days from 27 September, 2002
to 3 October, 2002 under the accumulated turnover method:
Date
The
foreign currency position (t-1) %

As of 3 October, 20032, the bank
A has calculated the foreign currency position of the date of 30 September,
2003 under the account balance method (Form 02) equal to +15% (the error is 2%
compared with the accumulated turnover method). By then, the bank A adjusts by
itself the foreign currency position at the date of 3 October, 2003 as follows:
The adjusted foreign currency
position (3 October)
= the old foreign currency
position (3 October) + the error
= -3% + (-2%)
= -5%
Therefore, the foreign currency
position (3, October) would be 5% and is the original position to calculate the
foreign currency position of the 4, October.
