marking Explanation: marking to comparable models Mark-to-Model refers to the practice of pricing a position or portfolio at prices determined by financial models, in contrast to allowing the market to determine the price. Often the use of models is necessary where a market for the financial product is not available, such as with complex financial instruments. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 4 hrs (2019-05-19 23:26:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Investing Answers Building and Protecting Your Wealth through Education Publisher of The Next Banks That Could Fail Financial DictionaryCalculatorsArticles Search InvestingAnswers Mark-to-Market (MTM) What it is: Mark-to-market (MTM) is an accounting method that records the value of an asset according to its current market price. How it works (Example): For example, the stocks you hold in your brokerage account are marked-to-market every day. At the closing bell, the price assigned to each of your stocks is the price that the larger market of buyers and sellers decided it would be at the end of the day. No other pricing information is included. MTM is similarly used to price futures contracts, which is very important for investors who trade commodities with margin accounts. Why it Matters: Most agree that MTM pricing accurately reflects the true value of an asset. However, MTM can be problematic in times of uncertainty because the value of assets can vary wildly from second to second -- not because of changes in the underlying value of assets, but because buyers and sellers are surging in and out in unpredictable ways. It is important not to confuse mark-to-market with mark-to-management or mark-to-model -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 6 hrs (2019-05-20 02:05:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Marking to market Definition: Settling or reconciling changes in the value of futures contracts on a daily basis. Also refers to the practice of reporting the value of assets on a market rather than book value basis. |
