Fix income固定收益经典题,3.1

经典题,3.1

3.1 Beatriz Maestre is a fixed-income consultant who has been retained by Filipe Ruelas, the CFO of Cavado Produtos Agricolas, SA(Cavado). Cavado is a manufacturer of prepared foods headquartered in Braga, Portugal.

At a second meeting, Ruelas tells Maestre about a EUR22million bond issue Cavado would like to retire.The issue is currently rated A-,and credit spreads for that rating are relatively high.Ruelas expects spreads to narrow in the future as the economy improves and as Cavado's performance for the coming year is factored into markets. The bond is closely held by two investment funds, and Ruelas feels they would be willig to sell their bond exposure at a small premium over the market price. Ruelas also feels Cavado's auditors would permit accounting defeasement if Cavado purchased a portfolio of high-quality government bonds whose cash flow characteristics closely matched the Cavado bonds or ifit purchased a portfolio of corporate bonds with similar duration and convexity characteristics and higher yields. Maestre recommends a strategy for retiring the bond.

Which of the following strategies would Maestre most likely recommend for retiring the Cavado

bond?

A.Bond tender offer

B. Cash flow matching with government bonds

C. Duration matching with corporate bonds


A is correct. Because the outstanding bond issue can likely be purchased for a small remium over market value, there is no reason to engage in a more complicated and likely more expensive retirement process using a cash flow-matching or duration-matching strategy.


【问题】这里经济预期变好,选Duration match不是可以拿到更好的收益吗,答案解释说duration match太复杂,但是复杂就不赚钱了么,好像不make sense,求大神解

同学你好,

这一题老师在经典题里面讲过,

一般是不会选A的,但是这一题Ruelas feels they would be willing to sell their bond exposure at a small premium over the market price。

small premium是个关键词,确实是直接又不贵的方法

但是经济预期在变好且信用利差在收窄哈,不是意味着选久期匹配可以赚到更多收益吗,如果小的premium是关键信息,那信用利差这个条件是做什么用的呢?
