问题如下:
An investor has a bond position worth USD 20,000 with a duration of seven. Suppose that the bond position has a convexity of 33. Two bonds are available for hedging. One has a duration of ten and a convexity of 80.The other has a duration of six and a convexity of 25. How can a duration plus convexity hedge be set up?
解释:
To make both duration and convexity equal to zero, we must solve
10P1+ 6P2+ 20,000×7= 0
80P1+ 25P2+ 20,000×33= 0
This gives P1 = −2,000 and P2 = −20,000, indicating that a short position of USD 2000 in
the first bond and a short position of USD 20,000 in the second bond is required.
题目问:一个投资者投资了USD20000,duration为7的债券。假设这个债券的convexity是33。现在可以用两个债券来进行对冲,债券1的duration=10,convexity=80,债券2的duration,convexity=25。如何用这两个债券一起来进行对冲?
目标是使得组合的duration以及convexity=0:
10*bond1+6*bond2+20000*7=0
80*bond1+25*bond2+20000*33=0
解得bond1=-2000
bond2=-20000
需要shortUSD2000的bond1,shortUSD20000的bond2。
老师好,看您在其他同学问题下回复“后面说了“Suppose that the bond position has a convexity of 33.”,所以投资组合的凸性是33。投资组合的美元凸性=20000*convexity = 20000*33”
对冲的目的是让detla p为0,也就是对冲工具的delta p变化量正好对冲掉目标的delta p变化量,但是33*20000是个啥啊?这是delta p?
