问题如下:
Lastly, MAA has a number of
fixed- rate investments, which Kozorez is looking to hedge against rising
rates. He asks Nils to review interest rate swap contracts. Nils determines
that MAA should enter into a receive-floating, pay- fixed swap. He recognizes
that this arrangement will require an exchange of cash flows at initiation, and
he sets out to calculate the arbitrage- free amount of the cash flows. Based on
his work on other types of derivative instruments, he realizes that he could
synthetically create a swap contract through either a portfolio of underlying
instruments or a portfolio of forward contracts.
Which
of Nils’s determinations in his analysis of the interest rate swap contracts is
least likely correct?
选项:
A.Exchange of cash flows
The structure of the swap
The equivalency to using instruments or forwards
解释:
A swap contract
value at initiation is zero, and there is no exchange of cash flows except on
the coupon payment dates.
