management 2019s discussion and analysis 114 jpmorgan chase & co./2017 annual report derivative contracts in the normal course of business , the firm uses derivative instruments predominantly for market-making activities . derivatives enable counterparties to manage exposures to fluctuations in interest rates , currencies and other markets . the firm also uses derivative instruments to manage its own credit and other market risk exposure . the nature of the counterparty and the settlement mechanism of the derivative affect the credit risk to which the firm is exposed . for otc derivatives the firm is exposed to the credit risk of the derivative counterparty . for exchange- traded derivatives ( 201cetd 201d ) , such as futures and options , and 201ccleared 201d over-the-counter ( 201cotc-cleared 201d ) derivatives , the firm is generally exposed to the credit risk of the relevant ccp . where possible , the firm seeks to mitigate its credit risk exposures arising from derivative transactions through the use of legally enforceable master netting arrangements and collateral agreements . for further discussion of derivative contracts , counterparties and settlement types , see note 5 . the following table summarizes the net derivative receivables for the periods presented . derivative receivables .

Table:
december 31 ( in millions ) | 2017 | 2016
interest rate | $ 24673 | $ 28302
credit derivatives | 869 | 1294
foreign exchange | 16151 | 23271
equity | 7882 | 4939
commodity | 6948 | 6272
total net of cash collateral | 56523 | 64078
liquid securities and other cash collateral held against derivative receivables ( a ) | -16108 ( 16108 ) | -22705 ( 22705 )
total net of all collateral | $ 40415 | $ 41373
( a ) includes collateral related to derivative instruments where an appropriate legal opinion has not been either sought or obtained .
derivative receivables reported on the consolidated balance sheets were $ 56.5 billion and $ 64.1 billion at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively .
derivative receivables decreased predominantly as a result of client- driven market-making activities in cib markets , which reduced foreign exchange and interest rate derivative receivables , and increased equity derivative receivables , driven by market movements .
derivative receivables amounts represent the fair value of the derivative contracts after giving effect to legally enforceable master netting agreements and cash collateral held by the firm .
however , in management 2019s view , the appropriate measure of current credit risk should also take into consideration additional liquid securities ( primarily u.s .
government and agency securities and other group of seven nations ( 201cg7 201d ) government bonds ) and other cash collateral held by the firm aggregating $ 16.1 billion and $ 22.7 billion at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , that may be used as security when the fair value of the client 2019s exposure is in the firm 2019s favor .
in addition to the collateral described in the preceding paragraph , the firm also holds additional collateral ( primarily cash , g7 government securities , other liquid government-agency and guaranteed securities , and corporate debt and equity securities ) delivered by clients at the initiation of transactions , as well as collateral related to contracts that have a non-daily call frequency and collateral that the firm has agreed to return but has not yet settled as of the reporting date .
although this collateral does not reduce the balances and is not included in the table above , it is available as security against potential exposure that could arise should the fair value of the client 2019s derivative transactions move in the firm 2019s favor .
the derivative receivables fair value , net of all collateral , also does not include other credit enhancements , such as letters of credit .
for additional information on the firm 2019s use of collateral agreements , see note 5 .
while useful as a current view of credit exposure , the net fair value of the derivative receivables does not capture the potential future variability of that credit exposure .
to capture the potential future variability of credit exposure , the firm calculates , on a client-by-client basis , three measures of potential derivatives-related credit loss : peak , derivative risk equivalent ( 201cdre 201d ) , and average exposure ( 201cavg 201d ) .
these measures all incorporate netting and collateral benefits , where applicable .
peak represents a conservative measure of potential exposure to a counterparty calculated in a manner that is broadly equivalent to a 97.5% ( 97.5 % ) confidence level over the life of the transaction .
peak is the primary measure used by the firm for setting of credit limits for derivative transactions , senior management reporting and derivatives exposure management .
dre exposure is a measure that expresses the risk of derivative exposure on a basis intended to be equivalent to the risk of loan exposures .
dre is a less extreme measure of potential credit loss than peak and is used for aggregating derivative credit risk exposures with loans and other credit risk .
finally , avg is a measure of the expected fair value of the firm 2019s derivative receivables at future time periods , including the benefit of collateral .
avg exposure over the total life of the derivative contract is used as the primary metric for pricing purposes and is used to calculate credit risk capital and the cva , as further described below .
the three year avg exposure was $ 29.0 billion and $ 31.1 billion at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , compared with derivative receivables , net of all collateral , of $ 40.4 billion and $ 41.4 billion at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively .
the fair value of the firm 2019s derivative receivables incorporates cva to reflect the credit quality of counterparties .
cva is based on the firm 2019s avg to a counterparty and the counterparty 2019s credit spread in the credit derivatives market .
the firm believes that active risk management is essential to controlling the dynamic credit risk in the derivatives portfolio .
in addition , the firm 2019s risk management process takes into consideration the potential .
