    Back in 1992 I joined Hoare Govett Securities and shortly after was recruited onto their fixed interest desk by the legendary Sean Baguley. As the junior trainee I had to get up to speed quickly on both bonds and derivatives, so I got hold of Professor Frank Fabozzi's books and the classic text from Professor John Hull. That's where I first read about the Ho-Lee model (1986); as Professor Hull describes it, "the first no-arbitrage model of the term structure". I'm always impressed when authors have yield curve models named after them. Enough nostalgia... ... for some time now I've subscribed to the newlsetter from the Thomas Ho Company, it's always a worthwhile read (the letter is sub-titled "How can you make a difference at your ALCO meeting?" - very close to my heart). The images below come from a recent issue of the Thomas Ho Company newsletter, comparing key stats for Silicon Valley Bank and Community Bank of New York - a very interesting comparison which I discuss in the comments below. ....Why the nostalgia? Recently Professor Thomas Ho, PhD got in touch with me to discuss various items of common interest, and the upshot is that we hope to present soon a webinar on bank ALM discipline and analytics approaches. That is just splendid! It's like a Beatles fan being asked to play bass on a Paul McCartney record! Fantastic, I can't wait (watch this space 😊)
