问题如下:
A hedge fund has invested USD 100 million in mortgage-Backed securities. The risk manager is concerned about prepayment risk if interest rates fall. Which of the following strategies is an effective hedge against the potential loss due to a drop in interest rates?
选项:
A.Short forward rate agreement (FRA), long T-bond futures
B.Long FRA, short T-bond futures
C.Long FRA, long T-bond futures
D.Short FRA, short T-bond futures
解释:
When rates drop, the long position in the futures and the short
position in the FRA both gain.
对于fra来说与利率是同向是因为标的物是利率,对于t-bond futures与利率反向因为标的物是债券吗?
