问题如下:

A long position in a 2 x 5 FRA is equivalent to the following positions in the spot market:

选项:

A.

Borrowing in two months to finance a five-month investment

B.

Borrowing in five months to finance a two-month investment

C.

Borrowing half a loan amount at two months and the remainder at five months

D.

Borrowing in two months to finance a three-month investment

解释:

ANSWER: B

An FRA defined as t1×t2t_1\times t_2 involves a forward rate starting at time t1t_1 and ending at time t2t_2 The buyer of this FRA locks in a borrowing rate for months 3 to 5. This is equivalent to borrowing for five months and reinvesting the funds for the first two months.


画红线那句话根本没看懂,为什么borrow是5个月 ,loan实际只有3个月啊,还有投资是什么意思,前面的2个月是投资???

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


2×5的FRA是投资者需要的是2个月之后为期3个的借款,题目问的是这等价于在现货市场上的什么情况。

投资者可以现在先借5个月的借款,但实际上2个月之后才需要,所以在头两个月的时候可以把这笔钱先投资出去

所以是先borrow 5 months,再invest (finance) 2 months

举个例子,比如:

long position的FRA 2 x 5,假设forward rate是6.2%,2月后的现期利率是6.4%

那么在FRA到期即t=2时,由于市场利率上升,long方将收获本金*(6.4%-6.2%)/4 / (1+6.4%/4)的金额,这个是现金结算。

这就可以看成是,long方以6.2%的利率接入了五个月的资金,然后投资回报就取决于t=2时的市场利率(后面3个月的利率已经固定了)。如果那时的即期利率是6.4%,那他就赚了这么多。

这就当相于借了5个月的钱,然后投资的是前两个月。

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


2×5FRA指的是这个FRA的总共持续期是5个月,从第二个月开始借钱,到第五个月结束,因此总的借款期是3个月

你没回答我的问题,为什么投资期是二个月,借款期是五个月,fra持续5个月我可以理解,我认为loan就是借款期,那只有3个月啊,还有什么是投资期
