B.convertible bonds have indirect impact of equity volatility on the relationship between credit spreads. C.The conversion feature associated with convertible bonds imposes arbitrage bounds on convertible bonds解释:
In contrast to the indirect impact of equity volatility on the relationship between credit spreads and share prices in the structural model, convertible bond investors hold a long equity volatility position in the form of an embedded call option. Increasing volatility results in gains to the convertible bond holder due to increases in value on the embedded call option. The conversion feature associated with convertible bonds imposes arbitrage bounds on convertible bonds that do not exist in the case of straight bonds under the structural model.求讲解B选项 如何理解题中所说direct vs indirect impact
