问题如下:
A swap in which the investor receives a variable payment in line with market conditions and makes a fixed payment can best be replicated by purchasing a:
选项:
A.
set of long futures contracts which are matched with short forward contracts.
B.
series of forward contracts, each with an initial value of zero.
C.
floating rate bond financed using a fixed-rate bond.
解释:
C is correct. The payment structure is replicated by being long the floating rate bond and being short the fixed-rate bond.
A is incorrect. This strategy does not replicate a swap in which the investor receives a variable payment in line with market conditions and makes a fixed payment.
B is incorrect. Due to differences in timing, the forward contracts need to be off-market contracts.
