题目是:"The higher interest rates are, the easier it is for a bank to create a principal protected note." Explain this statement.
给的解释是:In a principal protected note, the price of a call option has to be greater than the difference between S and PV(S). As interest rates increase, the difference becomes greater. Thus, it is easier to create a principal protected note.
按照老李上课的讲解,
最后是
10000/(1+r)^3+C0<= 10000,构建成本不高于1万,不应该是用这个角度来解释题干:构建成本越低,使得银行越容易去创建PPN。
而本题目的解释是,C0应当大于10000-10000/(1+r)^3,按老李的讲解,应该是小于才对?另外利率上升,差增大,为啥就有利于构建PPN了?
