Also, given the already stretched valuations in the Zy, we think a rise in geopolitical risks or a blow-out in peripheral spreads would increase collateral values of 5s and 10s more than the front-end - as happened during the first BTP spread widening in 2011 or the Brexit referendum. We recommend investors go long the DBR Aug26 vs OIS and short the BKO Dec18 Is OIS at current levels of -17bp, targeting 14bp and with a stop at -34bp. The position has 1.1 bp in 3m Carry and Roll. The main risk in the short term is ECB OE failure, while tighter short-maturity securities supply or lending is the main risk over the longer term.
