The Bank of Mozambique and the Supreme Court issued these regulations on December 31, 2015, to establish operational limits for foreign payments using international bank cards and to classify specific district courts as Class 1 or 2. The Bank's Notice No. 7/GBM/2015 approves a comprehensive framework for repurchase and reverse repurchase operations of fixed-income securities, defining eligible instruments, access conditions, pricing formulas, financial settlement procedures via Meticalnet, and strict operational limits based on own funds. Furthermore, it mandates compliance reporting, outlines infractions with suspension sanctions of at least six months, and amends existing interbank money market regulations to integrate Treasury Bonds as eligible collateral.

ANEXO Formulas to be Applied in Calculating the Price and Settlement Value of Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Operations of Fixed Income Securities The calculation of the price and settlement value within this Regulation must comply with the formulas contained in this Annex.

The quantity of securities to collateralize the operation will be obtained as the quotient between the transaction value and the unit price: Pu VT QTQT = VT (ii) The result obtained in formula (ii) must be an integer always rounded up. On the date-value of contracting, the capital to be effectively transacted (VT) must be adjusted to compensate for the effect resulting from rounding in obtaining the total quantity of transacted securities. Thus, the adjusted transaction value (or adjusted financial capital, VT’) is obtained from: VTVT '= Pu ×QTQT The nominal value corresponding to the transacted capital is obtained by multiplying the total quantity of securities by the unit nominal value of each security. (iii) (iv) VN = VNu x QT The total interest value of the operation is calculated by one of the following formulas: (v) JT = VT' x r x or JT = Ju x QT d B
d B (vi) JT QT The total repayment value (repurchase/reverse repurchase) on the maturity date of the operation is obtained by one of the following formulas: VR = VT' + JT or VR = Pu (vii) ' x QT The unit repurchase/reverse repurchase price on the maturity date of the operation is obtained by one of the following formulas: (viii) Pu ' = Pu + Ju or Pu ' = VR QT 2. Final Sale/Purchase of Securities Consider the following terminology for the purposes of this regulation: VNu = Unit nominal value of the security = MZN 1,000.00 (for zero-coupon securities) and MZN 100.00 (for coupon-bearing securities). Pu1= Unit updated/discounted price of the security (final sale/purchase price) at time t. Pu t-l = Acquisition Price of the security at time t-1 (in the primary or secondary market). If in the primary market, Pu t-1 equals the issue price; if in the secondary market, it equals the final sale/purchase price at the time prior to the current operation. B = Annual base (365 days). ci = Coupon interest rate F = Coupon payment frequency in a year N = Number of remaining coupons from the settlement date to maturity DSC = Number of days from the settlement date to the next coupon date E = Number of days in the coupon period containing the settlement date A = Number of days from the start of the coupon period to the settlement date k = Sequential number for each coupon observation from settlement to maturity Pm = Market Price. t = Date-Value of the operation. t’ = Term (in days) elapsed since acquisition to the Date-Value of valuation. n = Term of the security (in days). n’ = Number of days to maturity (n’ = n-t, in days). QT = Quantity of securities to be delivered/received. VN = Total nominal value of the operation. r = Interest rate of the operation. rt = Interest rate by which the security is remunerated since acquisition until period t. rt-1 = Interest rate of the operation at time t-1. May be identical to the issue interest rate when period t-1 coincides with the issuance moment. VT = Total Transaction Value of the operation (financial capital). VT’ = Adjusted Total Transaction Value (adjusted financial capital). JT = Total interest of the operation (for the buyer). Ju = Unit interest of the operation (for the buyer). Gc = Capital Gain (for the seller). Pc = Capital Loss (for the seller). Operation Scheme Security n' = n-t COMPRA / VENDA DEFINITIVA 0 t n The unit price of a security at each moment in its useful life is obtained from the following formula: For zero-coupon securities: B r n' VN B P u ut + × × = VN (ix) For coupon-bearing securities: − × × + × + + = ∑= − + − + E A F c F r F c F r VN P i N k E DSC k i E DSC N u ut 100 1 100 1 VN The result obtained in formula (ix) must be rounded to 5 decimal places. The quantity of securities serving to collateralize the operation is obtained as the quotient between the transaction value and the unit price: ut P VT QTQT = VT (x) The result obtained in formula (x) must be an integer always rounded up. On the date-value of contracting, the capital to be effectively transacted (VT) must be adjusted to compensate for the effect resulting from rounding in obtaining the total quantity of transacted securities. Thus, VT’ is obtained from: VT P QT ut (xi) VT' '= × QT The total nominal value corresponding to the transacted capital is obtained by multiplying the total quantity of securities by the unit nominal value of each security. (xii) VN = VNVNu ×QTQT , where VNu VN = MZN 1,000.00.
794 — (246) I SÉRIE — NÚMERO 104 The total interest value of the operation, to be received by the buyer at the end of its useful life, is calculated by: JT = VN - VT' Capital Gains and Capital Losses Capital gains (Gc) and capital losses (Pc) are determined by the following formula: 1 , − = −t t Gc Pc Pu Pu (xiv) The seller will obtain a capital gain if the result is greater than zero; and will have a capital loss if the result is less than zero. Where it is calculated by the formula ut −1 P B r n VN B P t u ut + × × = − − 1 1 VN Capital Gains and Capital Losses (Realized) Upon final sale of the security, the seller may realize a capital gain or loss, resulting from the difference between the effective sale price (Put) and the price at which the same security is valued in the market. The market price (Pm) is calculated by the following formula: B i n VN B P m u m + × × = VN where we have: (xv) • Capital Gain, if > Pm • Capital Loss, if < Pm ut P ut P Value Fluctuation In accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), securities held for trading are subject to market valuation (mark-to-market).
