问题如下:

A six-year CDS on a AA-rated issuer is offered at 150bp with semiannual payments while the yield on a six-year annual coupon bond of this issuer is 8%. There is no counterparty risk on the CDS. The annualized LIBOR rate paid every six months is 4.6% for all maturities. Which strategy would exploit the arbitrage opportunity? How much would your return exceed LIBOR?

选项:

A.

Buy the bond and the CDS with a risk-free gain of 1.9%.

B.

Buy the bond and the CDS with a risk-free gain of 0.32%.

C.

Short the bond and sell CDS protection with a risk-free gain of 4.97%.

D.

There is no arbitrage opportunity as any apparent risk-free profit is necessarily compensation for being exposed to the credit risk of the issuer.

解释:

ANSWER: A

Because LIBOR is flat, the fixed-coupon yield is also 4.6%, creating a spread of  800460=340bp800-460=340bp on the bond. Going long the bond and short credit via buying the CDS yields an annual profit of 340150=190bp340-150=190bp.

之前老师的介绍是:这题的本义其实就是bond的公允收益率应该是libor+CDS spread,也就是4.6%+1.5%=6.1%

而实际bond的收益率居然达到了8%,所以bond卖得便宜,这时候就应该买bond。

那么为了获得一个和libor风险一样的收益,买bond获得8%,又要买CDS来减小风险,支出1.5%,也就是会huodo获得8%-1.5%=6.5%的收益。比libor多出来6.5%-4.6%=1.9%

————————————————————————————————

我理解,应该是半年一期,那么libor + CDS spread的收益率在半年内是 4.6%+1.5%=6.1%,

但是bond的coupon是8%,那么半年的收益率 应该是4%。


这里年化、半年一期之类的把人搞困惑了,求指导。

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


A six-year CDS on a AA-rated issuer is offered at 150bp with semiannual payments while the yield on a six-year annual coupon bond of this issuer is 8%. 这个话两个百分比率都是年化的,一般frm考试给出的收益率都是年化的,除非明确说了半年期收益率是XXX才是半年的。

这题这种with semiannual payments的话不是主语不能当成对半年期的判断。
