问一道题:NO.PZ2019011002000024

问题如下:

TXT is a derivatives trading company. The derivatives trading company sold $10 million five-year CDS protection on company D. The CDS contract has a duration of 3.5 years. 3 months later, the credit spread on company D narrowed from 225bps to 165 bps.

According to the information above, if TXT enters into an offsetting position, it will generate a profit closest to:

选项:

A.

0.21 million

B.

0.58 million

C.

0.79 million

解释:

A is correct.

考点:计算CDS的盈利.

解析:

根据公式,TXT的盈利为:

Profit for TXT = changes in spread in bps × duration × notional

=(225bps-165bps)×3.5×10million

=  0.21 million

题目中的duration有带一个years,我知道是当做修正久期使用,但是怎么区分不是麦考利久期?

如果题目中有明确用词的我相信你很好判断。

但这里没有说明是麦考利就系还是修正久期,你就要基于前后文来判断。

因为涉及反应收益率(或者spread)对价格影响的就一定是modified duration。
