I have forgotten to bring the draft today, I shall send a copy to you

There were some hand-written changes made by Greg ijn the draft that were not
transferred to
the final version.

Subject: Credit Trading White Paper
Dear Vasant,
I am currently working with Bryan Seyfried and the Credit Markets/Trading
group in London, and am in the process of designing and building a website as
an information portal.
I am in possession of a paper that you co-authored entitled "Actively
Managing Credit Risk", which was published in Risk Publications.
Bryan has asked Bijoya (who is interning here during her X-mas holiday from
the LSE) to update this paper and generate a new White Paper about the
current state of the credit market and the developments we are pursuing and
creating. This will be used on our website and be published later in time.
Could you please - if you have the time - contact and maybe work with Bijoya
to draft this White Paper? Bryan is in Houston today and may be able to give
a better idea of what he is exactly looking for ... Otherwise, he will be in
London again next week.
I thank you in advance, and hope that we can pull something together in the
next few weeks.
Please contact me at any time!
Regards from London
Katja

Barbara,
Yes, ECT does not exist any longer. It's safer to say
the seminar is sponsored buy Enron Corp. WE have a reorganization every
three months.

Subject: UK RAB Multiples
I talked with Keith Harris, our CFO at Wessex, about the RAB multiple graph I
gave you. He expressed that the Wessex people had originated the data and
that the graph was correct, to the best of their knowledge. The only (but
very important correction) is that they started the graph at an index of
100%, which does not imply a 100% of RAB multiple. Rather, the initial RAB
multiple was around 80%, implying that the entire line should be taken down
by 20 percentile points. Thus the all time hime in late 98 should be closer
to the 1.3x RAB that I had targeted during our discussion. Please call Keith
if he has not yet contact you.

Subject: Re: GARP 2001 Convention
Dear Vince
Thank you for your recent enquiry concerning a complimentary pass to the
two-day GARP Convention. Unfortunately, it is not GARP's policy to allow
this for a number of reasons: GARP is a not-for-profit organisation, will
much lower delegate fees (and still the same overheads) than other
conference organizers. GARP's mission is to allow an educational forum for
furtherance of financial risk management and an opportunity to allow
networking and contact time between financial risk professionals. However,
in an attempt to remain at ease with my speakers, I would like to offer a
50% discount off the delegate fee for one of you colleagues in Enron. This
will be for the two-day Convention and will include the Gala Awards Evening
on 13th February, which had over three financial and risk professionals at
GARP 2000.
I trust that this is satisfactory. If you would like to take advantage of
this, please fax a completed registration form, along with a brief covering
note referring to this e-mail, and I will ensure that our administration
depart handle the relevant paper work. If you have any questions please do
not hesitate to contact me.
I look forward to your response and to meeting you in New York in February
(and receiving a copy of your presentation in a few days).
Kind regards
Andreas

Subject: GARP 2001 Convention
Dear GARP 2001 Speaker
This is just a quick note to keep you up-to-date with developments at the
GARP 2001 Convention, which will be held in New York between 12th and 15th
February, 2001.
Thus far, GARP 2001 looks set to far exceed our expectations and GARP
2000. There has been a great deal of interest in the 2001 Convention.
Delegate bookings have been much higher than this time last year. As a
result, we are set to far exceed the number of delegates that attention
earlier this year. The three workshops and the one-day Asset Management
Forum are also very well received and will probably reach full capacity. I
will of course provide you with much fuller details closer to the time of
the event.
Regarding the event itself, I would like a few outstanding issues:
1. Presentations: can you please e-mail your presentation to me by 15th
December, so that I have enough time to reproduce them and place them in a
delegate pack for the Convention. (Given the break of the Christmas and
New York period, and that the event is being held in New York, I am sure
you can appreciate that there are certain logistical factors that need to
be taken into account, hence the reason why the presentations are required
as soon as possible). This is purely for reproduction, we also request you
bring your presentation to the Convention on the day in either a floppy
disc or a laptop.
2. Audio-Visual Requirements: can you please inform me of what
audio-visual requirements you may have (35mm slides; OHP; LCD projection -
notably PowerPoint).
3. Check list: I have attached a check list for your information. If you
have not returned this already, can you please read and fax it to my
colleague, Claire as soon as possible.
If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to contact
me, otherwise I eagerly await your response in due course.
I look forward to seeing you in New York in February.
Kind regards
Andreas

One of my associates, Stinson Gibner, is making a presentation to the MBA
students at
Texas A&M University next week.
Do you have a Power Point general presentation about Enron, emphasizing our
growth,
creativity and employment opportunities? We could use it for presentations
we make on campuses to business and science students. There are many
presentations available on our Intranet site, but the are outdated.
It was nice meeting you in San Antonio.

Paul & Raymond,
It took more than a few days to catch up after I came back from Australia.
There are few things I would like to bring up to your attention.
First of all, I would like to thank you for your hospitality. I learned a lot
about the Australian markets and was greatly impressed with the
quality of the people at the Sydney office.
1. The resume you sent to me and Grant looks quite good.
I think it makes sense to interview this person and we can help
you with a phone interview.
2. I have received another resume that looks very promising. I am
very interested in this guy and would be ready to bring him over
to the States where we lack desperately technical talent.
Can you help us by interviewing him in Sydney?
The main determination I need from you is whether he can
function in a company like Enron. As any good academic
he sent his resume in a ps format and I shall fax you a copy in case
you don't have a PostScript reader on your system.
3. Christian Werner does some really neat things on
the weather front. I would like to determine if he can help
us to upgrade our systems. Can we bring him to Houston
for a week to discuss the weather forecasting technology with Mike
Roberts and Joe Hrgovcic? I think that he could learn a lot
from Mike and other weather guys here how we translate
weather info into business-related information. I shall be glad to
underwrite the cost of this trip.

Dear Vince,
Greetings from NY & hope all is well. As you may recall from the ROG real
options conference in NY, I'd indicated the opportunity to visit with you
next time I'm in Houston. I'll be there during 4/18-4/21 & wonder if we can
pls meet on Wed. 4/19 in your offices. Would appreciate it if you can pls
let me know whether you're available then (I'm flexible on the schedule
particulars). If not, pls let me know whether 4/18 (afternoon), 4/20
(afternoon), or 4/21 (morning) will work for you.
I really look forward to the opportunity & would appreciate to learn more
about how you've instigated the real options thinking in Enron and
especially its integration within the organizational & incentive matters.
Many thanks,

Subject: Re: digitals
Pavel, Many thanks for your note.
I understand that Digitals are not core Enron business but as you know, I'm
trying to explore Digitals to give, for example, a company a guaranteed
income in year one (to mop up expiring tax losses). This is offset by a
guaranteed expense in year two. See attached hypothetical example. The
digital will reflect an underlying commodity to which a company is exposed to
and would be part of a price risk management strategy, thereby giving it
'commercial purpose'.
I would be interested in hearing from you generally on the subject -- the
rational for using Digitals and your knowledge of its use in other markets
(electricity or other commoodity or in the banking sector).
It seems to me that setting the srike is key and a 'value judgement' or am I
wrong, and are there curves and models which could help you substantiate
this? In any event, do you have a feel for what an acceptable % of chance or
likelihood that a commodity price hits the strike on a digital before it
becomes non arm's length and does not pass the smell test?
Vince, Jarek suggested that you may be able to assist. Your views would also
be appreciated.
Gillian.

Subject: digitals
Digital options are extremely uncommon in the crude oil market. Nobody ever
asked me to show quotes in the OTC market. The only time we encountered them
was when producers, brought by our marketing team, wanted to sell a
knock-outable swap, whereby they would get a higher swap price in exchange
for cancelling the swap if the price settled below a certain level. This
structure had a digital put embedded in it, although the customers didn't
necessarilly know that. The companies were US oil and gas producers: Venoco,
Titan, Magnum Hunter, Patiena Oil & Gas, Belco, Central Resources. It was
about 1 year ago. In the OTC market, at about the same time, I asked for
quotes to hedge these transactions and sold a digital Cal 00 $16 swaption to
Elf and strips of digital puts to somebody else that I cannot recall.
I hope this helps.

Subject: Invitation to Speak at Infocast's upcoming "Market Price Volatility"
program
Hi Vince,
I would like to invite you, or one of your staff, to be a speaker at
Infocast's upcoming conference "Market Price Volatility: How to Model,
Assess, and Manage Price Volatility in Today's Power Markets," scheduled for
May 10-12, 2000, in Chicago. I am attaching a copy of the draft program
agenda for your review. As you may note, we wish to take our recent Houston
meeting a step farther by making this next session a more
technically-oriented meeting.
There are two spots you may wish to consider:
1. The session entitled "Case Study in Modeling Volatility," scheduled for
Wednesday, May 10th, from 3:30 to 5:00 pm. You will note below, what we had
in mind for the case study.
2. The talk "A Real Options Approach to Asset Valuation," scheduled for
Thursday, May 11th, from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm.
I am running behind schedule in finalizing this program, so I will give you
a call shortly to follow up with you. If you wish, please feel free to call
me at 818-888-4445 ext. 28.
I hope you can join us.

CASE STUDY GUIDELINES
1. Model should be for a particular market. Examples: PJM, Chicago, ECAR,
Southern California.
1B (optional). Model should be for a particular purpose. Examples: valuing a
new combustion turbine at the Florida/Georgia border, bidding on a portfolio
of power plants up for sale in NEPOOL, valuing a retail portfolio in
Pennsylvania.
2. Model should be estimated on a particular data set. Examples: daily NYMEX
close prices for Palo Verde, PJM hourly spot prices for 1998-1999.
3. Case study should describe several candidate models, for volatility
and/or market price, that were considered. Case study should discuss why
these models were considered. Candidate models should be described
mathematically and verbally.
4. Evaluation criteria for choosing among the models should be explicitly
identified, and quantified to the extent possible. Examples of evaluation
criteria: residuals that are not autorcorrelated, stationarity, R-squared,
Akaike information criterion.
5. Parameter estimates for each candidate model should be displayed. The
estimation procedure employed should be briefly described.
6. Some diagnostics of model fit (vis-a-vis data set) should be presented.
7. If possible, predictive power of model should be assessed.
Generally, the case study should include all of the items above. The case
study may include other things.

La m,moire ambigu% du communisme
Mis . jour le samedi 29 avril 2000
L'_VOCATION de la terreur exerc,e par les r,gimes communistes, qu'on pouvait
supposer - et esp,rer - voir passer de la triste r,alit, au d,bat historien,
tend . se transformer chez certains de ses d,nonciateurs les plus virulents
en une v,ritable croisade pour la m,moire. Une croisade qui croit trouver sur
sa route l'obstacle d'une autre m,moire ,mergente : celle de la Shoah, avec
laquelle elle s'obstine . entrer dans une p,nible r concurrence _.
Nul doute que le chapitre introductif du Livre noir du communisme, paru en
France . l'automne 1997 et publi,, depuis, dans seize pays - texte dans
lequel l'historien St,phane Courtois plaide pour un r Nuremberg du communisme
_ -, a contribu, . lib,rer ce genre d'offensive. Contre qui ? Contre l' r
int,grisme de la m,moire _ et le r monopole du crime contre l'humanit, _ que
s'arrogeraient des r individus _ dans la r communaut, juive _, ce qui
expliquerait le d,s,quilibre entre la m,moire du nazisme et celle du
communisme. Tels sont les termes utilis,s par St,phane Courtois dans un
entretien accord, . Politique internationale et que critique Marc Lazar,
professeur . l'Institut d',tudes politiques de Paris, dans la derniSre
livraison de la revue Communisme (L'Age d'homme, no 59-60).
Ce combat, qui se couvre de l'autorit, scientifique et s'autorise de
l'empathie que provoque le bilan meurtrier des pays communistes, est de
nature plut"t id,ologique. Plus qu'en France, un v,ritable r effet-Livre noir
_ se fait sentir dans les pays naguSre soumis . la sphSre d'influence
sovi,tique, o- de tels discours conduisent . de multiples d,rives ; entre
autres au retour inqui,tant d'un mythe refoul,, celui du r jud,o-bolchevisme
_. Dans cette logique, les victimes de la Shoah se seraient, aprSs 1945,
m,tamorphos,es en bourreaux staliniens. D'o- l'id,e que ces derniers auraient
aujourd'hui r int,rt _ . imposer le silence sur leurs r m,faits _.??Franchissant un pas de plus et mettant en ,vidence la proportion d'agents?d'origine juive dans l'administration sovi,tique, et notamment dans le NKVD,?certains flirtent avec une application ,tendue de la th,orie du r noyau?rationnel _ chSre . l'historien allemand Ernst Nolte.?????Sans nier la Shoah, cette th,orie consiste . avancer l'hypothSse que le?g,nocide juif aurait constitu, une r violence r,active _ face . un?bolchevisme lui-mme quelque peu r enjuiv, _. Que la proportion de juifs
europ,ens engag,s activement dans le communisme ait ,t, infime, voire
marginale, puisque, politiquement, la majorit, des juifs se sont r,partis au
cours du XXe siScle entre sionisme, social-d,mocratie, orthodoxie ou
assimilation, que le juda<sme sovi,tique et est-europ,en ait lui-mme?consid,rablement souffert de la terreur stalinienne, ne font rien . l'affaire?: insidieusement . l'Est, la vieille th,matique du r jud,o-bolchevisme _?paraOt faire son chemin, y compris jusque dans les cerveaux les plus savants.??Dans des pays fragilis,s par l'exp,rience du communisme r,el, par exemple en?Roumanie, cette configuration doit tre replac,e dans le cadre d'une
entreprise de refondation identitaire qui ,prouve le besoin de se nourrir
d'une confrontation permanente avec la m,moire juive. Des r lobbies _
suppos,s y sont couramment accus,s de tenter - ,ventuellement sur la base
d'une conspiration - de jeter un voile d'oubli ou d'ignorance sur des crimes
dont les juifs sont parfois d,sign,s comme les auteurs. Pour des soci,t,s
hant,es par la reconqute d'une fiert, nationale mise . mal par des d,cennies?de dictature et d'humiliation, pareil ,chafaudage th,orique, pour branlant?qu'il soit, a l'avantage de repr,senter une merveilleuse fabrique d'innocence.??Pourtant, le totalitarisme communiste a, . c"t, de la pr,sence des troupes du?pacte de Varsovie et comme toutes les dictatures contemporaines,?n,cessairement repos, aussi sur un tissu de compromission quotidienne avec le?pouvoir. Affronter cette douloureuse r,alit,, plus de dix ans aprSs la chute?du mur, demeure difficile. Le dissident tchSque Vaclav Havel fut peut-tre
l'un des premiers . mettre en garde ses concitoyens contre les tentations
victimaires et l'ext,riorisation syst,matique de la cause du mal. Ne leur

Il ne serait pas raisonnable de?consid,rer le triste h,ritage des derniSres quarante ann,es comme quelque?chose d',tranger qui nous a ,t, l,gu, par un parent lointain. _??Les d,rives qui s'autorisent d'une certaine lecture du Livre noir indisposent?une partie de ses auteurs dont quelques-uns avaient, dSs la parution de?l'ouvrage, tenu . prendre leur distance avec le texte introductif.?? TENDANCE ? LA VICTIMISATION??C'est aujourd'hui un proche de St,phane Courtois, Marc Lazar, qui lui?reproche de juger, sans v,ritablement argumenter, que r ce qui s'est pass, .?Auschwitz se retrouve grosso modo en URSS et dans d'autres pays communistes?_. Marc Lazar replace la d,marche de St,phane Courtois dans le cadre d'une?interpr,tation de la m,moire en termes de manipulation, qui pr,tend la?r,duire . une r conception strat,gique _, ourdie par des r acteurs collectifs?parfaitement organis,s et poursuivant des objectifs clairs et coh,rents _.?Cette tendance semble s,duire un nombre croissant d'historiens, bien qu'elle?soit fond,e sur une vision assez fruste des ph,nomSnes de m,moire, processus?sociaux aux contours toujours complexes dont la dynamique demeure?difficilement maOtrisable.??Quoi qu'il en soit, Communisme semble ici tomber dans les piSges de?l'histoire-m,moire en publiant un texte d'hommage au grand historien roumain?Georghe Bratianu. Si Georghe Bratianu fut bien victime de la version roumaine?du stalinisme en 1953, on ne saurait minimiser non plus, comme le fait?l'auteur, l'universitaire britannique John Rogister, qu'il fut aussi l'un des?artisans du rapprochement de son pays avec l'Allemagne nazie et un?nationaliste belliqueux. Tous les morts du communisme ont certes droit au?respect. Mais ce statut de victime ne rend pas forc,ment l'ensemble de leur?action digne d'un ,loge inconditionnel.??Jean-Louis Margolin, qui a sign, dans Le Livre noir les contributions sur le?communisme asiatique, r,sume ironiquement ce qui provoque la r,ticence d'une?partie des auteurs : r Dans les pays d'Europe orientale, ,crit-il, le?communisme, contraire aux nobles et saines traditions nationales, serait?toujours surimpos, de l'ext,rieur. Pour ceux qui furent soumis . la puissance?russe, le coupable est ais, . trouver. Pour les Russes, la cause est moins?entendue, mais qu'. cela ne tienne : suivant le go-t du jour on accusera les?Allemands, les juifs ou... Lucifer. _ En Europe de l'Est, cette tendance . la?victimisation est politiquement dangereuse. L'exemple serbe montre . quel?point elle peut aboutir . la l,gitimation de la violence nationaliste. Raison?de plus pour ne pas l'encourager depuis Paris.?? Nicolas Weill????Le Monde dat, du dimanche 30 avril 2000?????Zimbabwe : la fuite en avant de Robert Mugabe, par Fr,d,ric Fritscher??? Mis . jour le jeudi 27 avril 2000???H,ros incontest, de la guerre d'ind,pendance du Zimbabwe, chantre reconnu de?la lutte antiapartheid et, avec l'ancien pr,sident zambien Kenneth Kaunda,?animateur virulent de l'organisation des pays de la ligne de front contre le?r,gime de Pretoria, Robert Mugabe n'est plus aujourd'hui qu'un personnage?anachronique. Desmond Tutu, l'ancien archevque anglican du Cap, Prix Nobel
de la paix en 1984, le d,crit comme r la caricature de ce que le monde pense
que les dirigeants africains noirs sont _.
Les propos du pr,lat reflStent la d,ception des dirigeants sud-africains. Ils
r,sument aussi l'opinion publique du Zimbabwe, o- le pr,sident Mugabe vient
d'essuyer deux camouflets successifs. La population consult,e par r,f,rendum,
le 12 et le 13 f,vrier, sur de substantielles modifications de la
Constitution, qui avaient pour objectif essentiel de consolider les pouvoirs
pr,sidentiels, a r,pondu r non _ - . 54,6 % - aux questions qui lui ,taient
pos,es. Supportant difficilement la d,rive autocratique du r,gime, les
Zimbabw,ens ont, en fait, dit r non _ . Robert Mugabe, plut"t qu'. une
nouvelle Constitution dont le texte avait ,t, assez peu comment, publiquement.
La publication, un mois plus tard, le 10 mars, des r,sultats d'un sondage
r,alis, par Probe Market Research, un institut reconnu, li, . Gallup
International, pour le compte de la fondation sud-africaine Helen Suzman pour
la promotion de la d,mocratie, confirme le ras-le-bol des Zimbabw,ens, dont
65 % souhaitent le retrait de la vie publique du pr,sident, qui vient de
fter ses soixante-seize ans. Ils espSrent aussi, . 63 %, un changement de?gouvernement et cela jusque dans les zones rurales, o- l'Union nationale?africaine du Zimbabwe-Front patriotique (Zanu-PF), le parti au pouvoir, est?solidement implant,e.??DISCOURS POPULISTE??Le sondage indique clairement que les Zimbabw,ens sont avant tout pr,occup,s?par le ch"mage, la flamb,e des prix, les vicissitudes de leur quotidien, et?qu'ils restent insensibles, . 80 %, aux arguments du chef de l'Etat accusant?les Blancs rest,s au pays aprSs l'ind,pendance d'tre responsables des
difficult,s ,conomiques actuelles.
Seule une petite minorit, des sond,s (9 %) estime que la r,forme agraire,
pr,sent,e comme primordiale par le gouvernement, est un dossier essentiel.
L'opinion publique ne bl?me pas les fermiers blancs pour le blocage de la
r,forme, mais le gouvernement lui-mme (74 %). Etrange paradoxe, puisque,?dans le mme temps, le mouvement d'occupation des propri,t,s appartenant .
des fermiers blancs par les anciens combattants de la guerre d'ind,pendance,
les r v,t,rans _, lanc, le 28 f,vrier . l'instigation du pr,sident Mugabe,
continue de s',tendre.
Les r v,t,rans _, soutenus par la Zanu, affirment qu'ils ne font que
reprendre les terres vol,es . leurs anctres par les Blancs au siScle?dernier, dans cette ancienne colonie britannique. L'opposition politique?accuse le pr,sident Mugabe d'avoir organis, l'occupation des terres pour r?punir _ les Blancs, qu'il rend responsables du rejet de la nouvelle?Constitution lors du dernier r,f,rendum.??Plusieurs personnes ont trouv, la mort au cours des derniSres semaines. Avec?la complicit, passive de la police zimbabw,enne, les r v,t,rans _ ont?assassin, deux fermiers blancs ainsi que deux militants noirs du Mouvement?pour le changement (MDC), principale formation de l'opposition, br-l,s vifs?dans l'incendie de leur voiture, et un policier en civil. Ils ont ,galement?viol, deux femmes blanches, parentes d'un responsable influent du Syndicat?des fermiers commerciaux (CFU).??Robert Mugabe continue n,anmoins de soutenir fermement les anciens?combattants. La Haute Cour de justice a, par deux fois, d,clar, les?occupations des fermes ill,gales et ordonn, leur ,vacuation. Par deux fois,?le pr,sident a refus, de faire appliquer les d,cisions de justice,?interdisant mme aux forces de police d'intervenir. Dans sa fuite en avant,
M. Mugabe a choisi encore une fois de prendre la minorit, blanche comme bouc
,missaire. Le proc,d, n'est pas nouveau. Il constitue depuis vingt ans un des
thSmes r,currents de son discours populiste. Il a trait, les fermiers blancs
d' r ennemis du Zimbabwe _ le jour mme o- l'un d'entre eux ,tait l?chement?assassin,. L'an dernier, . l'occasion de son soixante-quinziSme anniversaire,?il avait estim, que les Blancs zimbabw,ens devaient r demander pardon pour?leurs p,ch,s pass,s _. r Il ne faut pas leur laisser le sentiment, parce?qu'ils contr"lent l',conomie, qu'ils sont nos maOtres. Le combat est clair,?c'est Noirs contre Blancs _, avait-il ajout,.??Le problSme foncier est crucial au Zimbabwe, o- Robert Mugabe promet aux r?v,t,rans _ une redistribution ,quitable des terres depuis l'accession?officielle du pays . l'ind,pendance, le 18 avril 1980. Les accords de?Lancaster House, sign,s . Londres le 21 d,cembre 1979, portaient sur les?conditions d'un cessez-le-feu et sur les modalit,s d'accession au pouvoir de?la majorit, noire. Ils ont mis un terme . sept ans d'une guerre sanglante?entre le r,gime blanc de Ian Smith - qui avait d,clar, unilat,ralement?l'ind,pendance de la Rhod,sie en 1965, pour pr,venir l'avSnement d'un pouvoir?noir - et les nationalistes conduits par Robert Mugabe et Joshua Nkomo,?codirigeants du Front patriotique. Mais ces accords pr,voyaient ,galement une?aide internationale . la r,forme agraire pouvant atteindre 2 milliards de?dollars. De l'aveu mme de Robin Cook, le ministre britannique des affaires
,trangSres, la Grande-Bretagne - ancienne puissance coloniale - n'y a
contribu, qu'. hauteur de 70 millions de dollars.
M. Mugabe avait fait adopter, le 19 mars 1992, par le Parlement, une loi
permettant d'exproprier les riches fermiers blancs pour installer sur leurs
vastes propri,t,s un grand nombre de petits paysans noirs. Poursuivant son
dessein, il avait fait publier, le 28 novembre 1997, la liste officielle des
1 500 propri,t,s que le gouvernement souhaitait r nationaliser _ pour les
redistribuer. L'expropriation portait sur quelque 5 millions d'hectares, la
moiti, des terres exploit,es par des fermiers blancs, et ne devait donner
lieu . aucune indemnisation.
Cependant, au cours des vingt derniSres ann,es, les quelques propri,t,s
rachet,es ou r,quisitionn,es par les autorit,s ont ,t, redistribu,es non pas
. de petits paysans noirs comme elles auraient d- l'tre, mais . des membres?de la nomenklatura, dirigeants de la Zanu ou proches de la famille Mugabe.??N_POTISME ET CORRUPTION??Le n,potisme et la corruption sont deux des principaux reproches adress,s par?l'opposition et la population au r,gime de M. Mugabe, qui subit, depuis?d,cembre 1997, une pression populaire croissante. Le r,gime fait le choix de?l'autoritarisme et la d,rive personnelle du pouvoir devient ,vidente lorsque,?en ao-t 1998, Robert Mugabe d,cide, sans consulter ni le Parlement ni le?gouvernement, d'envoyer un corps exp,ditionnaire en R,publique d,mocratique?du Congo (RDC, ex-Za<re) pour voler au secours de Laurent-D,sir, Kabila,?menac, par une r,bellion interne et ses voisins ougandais et rwandais. Les?Zimbabw,ens s'interrogent sur la n,cessit, d'engager ces 11 000 soldats dans?un conflit lointain, qui co-te quelque 30 millions de dollars chaque mois .?un pays en plein marasme ,conomique.??C'est dans ce contexte peu favorable, somme toute, que le pr,sident Mugabe?entend conduire la Zanu aux ,lections l,gislatives pr,vues en mai. Et pour la?premiSre fois depuis l'ind,pendance, la Zanu - qu'il voulait transformer en?parti unique en 1990, alors que le multipartisme bourgeonnait partout sur le?continent - risque fort d'tre bouscul,e par l'union possible de l'opposition
autour du MDC, fond, par l'ancien dirigeant syndicaliste Morgan Tsvangirai.

Le Monde dat, du vendredi 28 avril 2000
Comment d,couper Microsoft ?, par Fran?ois L,vque??? Mis . jour le vendredi 28 avril 2000???Le d,mantSlement de Microsoft est envisag, pour mettre fin aux pratiques?anticoncurrentielles de l'entreprise de Redmond. Dans quel sens d,couper la?soci,t, et en combien de morceaux ? Il y a plusieurs solutions possibles mais?il est difficile d'en choisir une.??Une premiSre option consiste . d,couper Microsoft selon un trait horizontal?qui s,parerait les activit,s d,di,es aux logiciels d'application de celles du?systSme d'exploitation. Ce d,membrement en deux morceaux r,sout la question?des produits li,s, comme le rattachement abusif d'Internet Explorer .?Windows, mais n'entame pas le monopole de Microsoft sur le march, des?systSmes d'exploitation pour ordinateur personnel.??DeuxiSme solution : proc,der . un d,coupage vertical qui diviserait?l'entreprise de Bill Gates en mini-Microsofts identiques. Le nombre de ces?Baby Bills (nomm,es ainsi par la presse am,ricaine par analogie avec les Baby?Bells cr,,es lors du d,mantSlement d'ATT) doit tre au moins de trois pour
instaurer la concurrence.
Un troisiSme d,membrement envisageable est de combiner divisions horizontale
et verticale. Il donnerait naissance . quatre entreprises : trois Baby
Windows, et une Baby Applications, qui conserveraient la libert, d',tendre
leurs activit,s vers l'amont ou vers l'aval.
Chacune de ces solutions entraOne des cons,quences diff,rentes pour le
consommateur et r,clame des mesures d'accompagnement plus ou moins co-teuses
pour l'administration. Le d,membrement en deux morceaux aboutit . la perte
des ,conomies li,es . l'int,gration verticale (c'est l'id,e que la
connaissance complSte du systSme d'exploitation permet de d,velopper .
moindre co-t des logiciels d'application). Ces ,conomies sont toutefois assez
faibles selon les experts.
Le co-t du d,mantSlement horizontal serait donc modeste pour les
consommateurs. Ce qui n'est pas le cas du d,membrement vertical. Les Baby
Bills vont mener des strat,gies de diff,renciation qui vont conduire . une
fragmentation des standards. Les nouvelles versions de Windows ne seront plus
compatibles.
La troisiSme solution cumule les deux inconv,nients. Sur le plan des
b,n,fices, le classement s'inverse. En effet, le b,n,fice attendu des mesures
de d,mantSlement est celui qu'apporte la concurrence (baisse des prix et
acc,l,ration de l'innovation). Or la concurrence est d'autant plus forte que
le nombre d'entreprises est grand et qu'aucun monopole ne subsiste sur les
march,s.
Le d,mantSlement vertical et horizontal en quatre morceaux laisse esp,rer un
plus grand b,n,fice que le d,mantSlement vertical en trois morceaux, qui
lui-mme est plus avantageux pour le consommateur que le d,mantSlement?horizontal en deux morceaux. Du c"t, des co-ts administratifs, le?d,membrement horizontal et vertical est ,galement la solution la plus?avantageuse. La seule t?che des pouvoirs publics est d'empcher les alliances
et les fusions. Les d,penses de contr"le sont trSs ,lev,es en revanche dans
le cas du d,mantSlement horizontal. Des mesures de r,glementation, comme la
tarification administr,e, doivent n,cessairement compl,ter le dispositif
puisque le monopole de Windows est maintenu intact. Le cas du d,mantSlement
vertical occupe une position interm,diaire. Il appelle simplement des mesures
r,glementaires transitoires, comme l'interdiction faite au personnel r,parti
au d,part dans les trois soci,t,s de changer imm,diatement de Baby Bill (de
rejoindre par exemple celle qui resterait dirig,e par Bill Gates).
L'objectif poursuivi par les autorit,s de la concurrence est de servir
l'int,rt du consommateur. La solution qui devrait tre choisie par la
division antitrust am,ricaine est donc celle qui maximise l',cart entre le
b,n,fice apport, par une plus grande concurrence et le co-t induit par la
perte en ,conomies d'int,gration verticale et de compatibilit,. La
comparaison entre le d,mantSlement horizontal et le d,mantSlement combin, est
ici difficile. Dans le premier cas, il faut soustraire un faible co-t d'un
faible b,n,fice tandis que dans le second, il faut retirer un co-t ,lev, d'un
b,n,fice ,lev,.
On peut en revanche ,liminer facilement la solution du d,mantSlement
vertical. En effet, en compl,tant le d,coupage vertical par un d,coupage
horizontal, l'intensit, de la concurrence augmente fortement et donc le
b,n,fice pour le consommateur tandis que ce dernier subit un faible surco-t.
Restent donc deux solutions possibles que seules des ,valuations chiffr,es
permettraient de d,partager. Les autorit,s de la concurrence am,ricaines
s'apprtent . demander un d,mantSlement horizontal, ce qui reflSte sans doute?que la solution combin,e est moins favorable au consommateur.??Si l'objectif poursuivi est l'int,rt g,n,ral - un objectif que l'on peut
prter aux juges - le choix de d,mantSlement doit aussi tenir compte des?co-ts des mesures de contr"le pour l'administration. La solution . retenir?n'est alors plus forc,ment la mme puisqu'il s'agit maintenant de maximiser
le gain pour le consommateur net du co-t administratif. Si les ,conomies pour
l'administration que permet de r,aliser le d,mantSlement horizontal et
vertical l'emportent sur la r,duction du gain pour le consommateur (due en
particulier . la fragmentation des standards), la cr,ation de trois Baby
Windows et d'un Baby Applications est une meilleure solution. Rien ne dit
donc que le juge Thomas Penfield Jackson retiendra l'option de d,mantSlement
en deux morceaux propos,e aujourd'hui par les plaignants.

Subject: MBA Career Opportunity
Dear?Vincent Kaminski:
?
I got your contact details from the web site for power marketers. I have a
strong interest in pursuing a career in the energy industry?with a top
energy company like?Enron, where my abilities and qualifications can be
fully applied for our mutual benefit.
I am graduating in May with an MBA?degree with concentrations in finance and
information systems. This summer I worked?as an intern with Structuring and
Analytics group of Ameren Energy.?This internship?has been especially
challenging and has enhanced my professional competencies. While there, I
was afforded the opportunity to?develop a forward view model?for?off-
peak?electricity price forecasting and analyze the data sets of a
fundamental?model to create forward price curves. Both projects added value
to the company and provided me with first-hand experience in the area of
energy trading and marketing as well as modeling techniques.
In addition, I have an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering and
two years' experience in power generating. With my work experience in energy
finance and exceptional academic and professional achievements, along with
my exemplary leadership and management potential and outstanding analytical,
business communication, problem-solving and computer skills, I'm convinced
that I will be able to make immediate contributions to your company.
I am attaching my resume for your review. Should you have any questions or
need clarification, please feel free to contact me at (504) 861-9110 or
qchen1@tulane.edu.
As I have some offers with deadlines approaching, I would appreciate it if
you could give me a quick response. I also expect?a base compensation above
$75k. I look forward to?hearing from you soon.
?

Subject: Contstraints on the shape of a smile
Stinson ,Vince ,Zimin,
Here's a brief document on constraints on the shape of a smile for a fixed
expiry date.
the constraints are neccessary and sufficient for no arbitrage in this case.
I've used a template created by Dr. Leppard which is why it looks so scary.
If you need constraints in the time direction then I will have to think a
little bit more about it.
I think constraints in this direction are very model depenendent e.g.
stochastic volatility and local volatility models
will throw up different constraints.
Steve,
I am not sure if our traders (or quants for that matter) are aware of these
constraints
and some desks are beginning to build smiles...
Regards
Sharad

Subject: Important Information About United HealthCare - Please Read!
TO: Houston Area Employees Participating in the Domestic Medical Plan Benefits
You may have recently received communication from United HealthCare (UHC)
concerning Memorial Hermann Health Systems' (MHHS) decision to terminate
their contract with UHC in the Houston/Beaumont area. This communication
also included the names of physicians who will be dropped from the network
due to this action. It is our intent to help you understand the situation.
It is our understanding that Memorial Herman Health Systems asked for a 40%
increase in fees - a substantial increase that would have been passed on to
you and Enron! When United HealthCare attempted to negotiate with a counter
proposal, Memorial Hermann cancelled their contract.
While this contractual arrangement was between the hospital system and UHC,
Enron continues to support UHC in their ongoing contract negotiation
efforts. At this time, it is only UHC which has been affected, however, it
is our understanding that Cigna has also been contacted by the hospital group
and may be in contract negotiations at this time as well.
Many doctors have obtained admission privileges to other area hospitals
within the UHC Network or have contracted directly with UHC including those
with admission privileges to The Woodlands, Sugarland and Clear Lake
Hospitals, to name a few. In a further effort to limit disruption to our
affected employees and families who are enrolled in the UHC Network or EPO
options, Enron has authorized UHC to process claims incurred between
September 28 and December 31, 2000 as if the termination of the Memorial
Hermann Health Systems from the network had not occurred and In-Network
benefits applied. Office visits will have a $10 copayment and all other
charges will be covered at 90%. Hospital admissions will still need to be
pre-certified with UHC.
These steps have decreased the number of participants' affected by Primary
Care Physician disruption from 1,050 to 127.
If You Need Medical Attention: You or your doctor/hospital must call UHC's
customer service number so proper benefits can be verified. In some cases
the hospital or doctor may request payment at the time service is performed.
If this should happen, please obtain an itemized statement and submit it to
UHC with a claim form for prompt reimbursement. Claim forms can be obtained
by calling 1-800-332-7979 or in Houston at 713-853-7979 ( press 1).
Open enrollment materials will be coming soon. Take this opportunity to
consider your elections for 2001.
United HealthCare and Enron HR are committed to assisting Enron employees
through this transition. We will communicate any further developments that
may impact you or your family. |

==========On The McKinsey Quarterly Web site this month==========
Valuing dot-coms after the fall
The Internet roller coaster may rank as the market's most dramatic
upheaval over the past 20 years, but it certainly hasn't been the only
one. Remember biotech? Real estate? Leveraged buyouts? What about Japan
Incorporated? Sooner or later, investment values always revert to a
fundamental level based on cash flows. Get used to it.
http://mckinseyquarterly.com/login.asp?ArtID=1015
Mobile portals mobilize for scale
As investors have cooled to new ventures, survival is now at the top of
the agenda for mobile portals. Whether a portal stays alive will depend on
its ability to offer accessibility, awareness, and the right services. The
rest of the struggle---rapid expansion to ensure long-term survival and,
eventually, global dominion---will come down to guts and determination.
http://mckinseyquarterly.com/login.asp?ArtID=1022
The innovative organization
The idea that new businesses prosper best when separated from their
corporate parents has now become conventional wisdom. Although new
ventures do need space to develop, strict separation can prevent them from
obtaining invaluable resources and rob their parents of the vitality they
can generate. The solution? A balance of partitioning and integration.

Programmers abroad: A primer on offshore software development
More and more companies are going offshore to develop and maintain their
software. The reason is simple: this approach saves time and money.
Without discipline in managing offshore relationships, however, a company
not only can squander the cost and time savings it had hoped to gain but
also may face late deliveries, escalating costs, mismatches between
expectations and deliverables, and even outright failure.

as well as cover additional topics viz.
- Discuss, with application, Enrons internal V@R model, and how this is used
internally.
- Discuss volatility modelling, and whether it is possible to maintain and
trade a term structure of volatility in electricity
- Modelling forward curves with reference to associated markets (eg Oil).
Can we gain some insights through spreads to related market curves (spark).
I assume your hotel is booked already. Catching the taxi is the best way to
get to your hotel.

opportunity for me.
On Thursday and Friday, as well as in the evenings (except for the evening

The materials were prepared in collaboration with a professor

However, we are very skinny on W staff here ( like Christian is our one &

Paul & Raymond,
It took more than a few days to catch up after I came back from Australia.
There are few things I would like to bring up to your attention.
First of all, I would like to thank you for your hospitality. I learned a lot
about the Australian markets and was greatly impressed with the
quality of the people at the Sydney office.
1. The resume you sent to me and Grant looks quite good.
I think it makes sense to interview this person and we can help
you with a phone interview.
2. I have received another resume that looks very promising. I am
very interested in this guy and would be ready to bring him over
to the States where we lack desperately technical talent.
Can you help us by interviewing him in Sydney?
The main determination I need from you is whether he can
function in a company like Enron. As any good academic
he sent his resume in a ps format and I shall fax you a copy in case
you don't have a PostScript reader on your system.
3. Christian Werner does some really neat things on
the weather front. I would like to determine if he can help
us to upgrade our systems. Can we bring him to Houston
for a week to discuss the weather forecasting technology with Mike
Roberts and Joe Hrgovcic? I think that he could learn a lot
from Mike and other weather guys here how we translate
weather info into business-related information. I shall be glad to
underwrite the cost of this trip.

Paul's seminar is Friday, March 30, at 3:30 in Room 201 (note the room

The abstract of the paper is copied below:
Abstract
"I provide evidence that Nasdaq dealers make markets in the stocks in which
they receive order flow. Several variables used to proxy for the stocks
that individual market maker's brokerage customers would trade, including
trading volume, location, underwriting participation and analyst coverage,
are significant determinants of market marking activity. Informational
advantages may also be a factor in the market making decision as evidenced
by dealers specializing in stocks in specific industries. Some potential
problems that arise when researchers ignore the integration of market
making with brokerage, securities analysis and underwriting businesses are
discussed."

Subject: Re: Greetings from Baylor University
Dear Vince,
Thanks for writing back.?? I am glad to hear that Shane Green is working
there and doing so well.? Please give him my regards.?
Let's plan on having you speak for our Gamma Iota Sigma dinner on the evening
of 2/23.? It is my understanding that you are going to be in town anyway for
John Martin's "new economy" seminar.? Will you be needing a hotel
accommodation for that evening?? If so, please let me know and I will have my
secretary arrange accommodations for you.
Concerning class presentations, I am curious when whether we can try to
arrange a date.? I am teaching two undergraduate sections of a business risk
management course from 11-12:20 and 12:30-1:50 on Tuesdays and Thursdays this
spring.?? I also am teaching a graduate version of the same course from
3:30-4:50 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but when you come I will probably have
you speak to the undergraduate classes and have my graduate students attend
either of those sessions.? The spring semester starts January 9 and ends May
1, and the following dates are already taken for other speakers, exams, or
spring break:
Thursday, February 15 - Midterm exam 1
Tuesday, March 6 and Thursday, March 8 - no class (spring break)
Thursday, March 15 - presentation on risk adjusted discount rate
methodologies by Dr. Richard Derrig, Automobile Insurers Bureau of
Massachusetts
Tuesday, April 3 - Midterm exam 2
Please let me know at your earliest convenience when you would like to
schedule a presentation.? Considering the fact that the presentation would be
scheduled for around the middle of the day, it would probably be technically
possible for you to make your visit into a day trip (back and forth from
Houston) in case if you are pressed for time.? Continental flies here from
Houston, but unfortunately the morning flight doesn't come in until 10:45
a.m., which would be too late for a presentation to the 11 a.m. class.
Thanks again,
Jim

Hi Vince!
Maybe you remember me, my name is Andrew Miles and we worked together on a
speech for Jeff Skilling this past July. I am hoping that I can get on your
calendar for 30 minutes next week. I have been working with 3 other Enron
employees for the past 6 months, developing a comprehensive innovation
acceleration process for use by potentially all Enron employees - and we
would really appreciate your input. We have presented the idea to quite a
few people in the company, and some outside of the company (Strategos
Institute), all of which have really liked the idea and provided key input.
Many people have suggested that we run the idea by you.
If you have some time next week, would you mind allowing me to explain our
ideas to you? I will follow up with a telephone call.
All the best,

Subject:
Vince and Vasant:
Here is a brief summary of my meeting with Chris Germany, Capacity Trader at
the East Desk, related to gas transmission:
Typically, pipelines lease capacity billed on a monthly basis. An example
might be the pipeline between South Texas and Brooklyn, where you might pay
$12.00 per month per 10,000 decatherms of capacity ($0.40 per day), a fixed
payment. Variable charges are 6% for fuel costs ("shrinkage") and 6.5% for
overhead expenses. A gas trader might call South Texas and be quoted a
delivery price tomorrow of NYMEX - $0.10 ("basis"), and might call Brooklyn
and be quoted a delivered price of NYMEX + $0.25 . The trader's spread is
$0.35, and variable costs of transmission are $0.125, so the trader would
offer the leaseholder of capacity up to $0.225 for firm capacity tomorrow.
As for the distinction betweem firm and interruptible, the leaseholders have
an excellent knowledge of the firm-equivalent of interruptible capacity.
Also, many pipelines don't discount firm capacity from the tariff maximum
("it's not worth their time to haggle") (There is a further issue of
"secondary markets" not important to the model yet). For South Texas and
Brooklyn, there are several different routes the gas can physically take
(pipelines of Enron, Texas Eastern, etc). And, once the trade is in the
system traders can cover the (Enron) positions on each end of the pipeline,
in so doing freeing up the capacity for other contracts.

Dr. Kaminski, I would like to thank you very much for taking care of Amy and
me
during our trip to Houston. What I saw at Enron Communication was nothing
short
of revolutionary. More than that, I was impressed with the drive of the
people,
their kindness, and their proficiency. I look forward to meeting you again in
Stanford during the last weekend of February. I will send you an email next
week, so that we can arrange a meeting between you and Prof. Bambos.
All the best wishes,
Giuseppe

I spoke with Susan Wood, who heads up our emissions marketing effort who
says we don't really have any materials we send out. She did recommend the
Emissions trading handbook which can be purchased for $50 from
http://www.etei.org/handbook_changed.htm.
In general, the site http://www.etei.org/ is a great source of info, and the
the parent site, http://www.emissions.org should be checked out as well. If
you'd like me to purchase the handbook (it will take three weeks) let me know.

Steve,
The Journal of Risk is a more technical and serious publication
than RISK MAgazine.
If the article is published it will give you more exposure in
the academic circles. I think it will be a significant
accomplishment.
On the downside, it does not receive the same wide circulation as RISK
among the practitioners.
I can also see the reason behind the recommendation given
by Navroz: the article is fairly long for RISK.

After further consultation with the Technical Editor, we feel that your work
would find a more suitable environment for exposure in The Journal of Risk.

If you email a copy of your work (to the Editor-in-Chief, Philippe Jorion)

then I am sure that they will be keen to give due consideration.

Subject: Support for Exotica
All
Sharad's investigations of Exotica's status in London have turned up a very
confused state of affairs. This isn't being helped by the fact that:
1. Anjam is rarely at his desk, and can't be found anywhere in the building.
2. When he is around he isn't willing or able to provide all the information
Sharad might need to support Exotica.
This is worrying since much of our business depends on the validity of
Exotica's valuations.
Sharad will now request information from Anjam via email to leave a trail,
and I want to alert you to the fact that Sharad will be cc'ing you in on
these emails.
If things don't improve soon, I may need to request some assistance in
extracting this information from Anjam.
Many thanks,
Steve

Michael
I have got CSFB working on the amendment you asked for.
In the meantime we have produced a graph which shows, as indices, market
values of the water companies and the RAB of the industry since
privatisation. The following points come out
1 Market values overtime have been 1.1x RAB
2 The result is significantly skewed by the period between Mid 1997 and end
1998 when the ratio was c1.5x.
3 The premium to RAB is only found at a time when political uncertainty has
been removed the companies are able to outperform the regulatory deal
significantly. Those days are gone - a fact witnessed by the decline in
share prices in the last year
Just to note that the graph we have produced here is a weighted average of
water companies - whereas the figures we did yesterday on the RAB market
value ratio is a straight average. Obviously that influences the numbers a
little.
On CustomerCo. CSFB have contacted around 7 energy companies. The result
has been positive and they are prepared to enter our journal exercise. I
await a revised fee proposal but CSFB have been advised that it should be
more modest than the last one !

Vince - attached is the most recent E&P version of the old corporate cash
flow model that I could find. Note that "most recent" still dates it back a
few years. A couple caveats: I did try to clean it up somewhat from old
macros, but no guarntees offered. Also, some of the underlying methodology
is not what we would probably currently use, such as for pricing, stochastic
processes, and perhaps decline rates.
Please let me know if I can provide any additional help.

Steve,
I shall call you tomorrow about it. My preference is to move Anjam to Houston
for some time. Anjam knows a lot about our business and specific positions
and it's better to prevent a potential leak. I have discussed this issue
with Dale and Richard and they concurred.
I don't expect Anjam to act irrationally but it's better to be safe than
sorry.

Hi Vince
If you're currently engaged in drawing up contingency plans for the Anjam
situation, have you arranged for a "snapshot" of his computer directories to
be taken? We all tend to use our personal areas (on our H: drives) for
development, and obviously there'll be a few years of work in Anjam's
directories. I wouldn't want him to wipe it all out in a fit of bad temper.
Although our IT dept. obviously makes backups, I don't know how long they are
kept for.
Cheers,
Steve
