定性判断

NO.PZ2019103001000056

问题如下:

Edgarton evaluates the Fund’s positions from Exhibit 1 along with two of his pro forma portfolios, which are summarized in Exhibit 2:

Edgarton expects a steepening yield curve, with short-term yields rising by 1.00% and long-term yields rising by more than 1.00%.

Based on Exhibits 1 and 2, which of the following portfolios is most likely to have the best performance given Edgarton’s yield curve expectations?

选项:

A.

Current Portfolio

B.

Pro Forma Portfolio 1

C.

Pro Forma Portfolio 2

解释:

C is correct.

Given Edgarton’s expectation for a steepening yield curve, the best strategy is to shorten the portfolio duration by more heavily weighting shorter maturities. Pro Forma Portfolio 2 shows greater partial duration in the 1- and 3-year maturities relative to the current portfolio and the least combined exposure in the 10- and 30-year maturities of the three portfolios. The predicted change is calculated as follows:

Predicted change = Portfolio par amount × partial PVBP × (-curve shift in bps)/100

为什么这道题不能用定性判断,选期限最长的债券BVPB最小的,选择组合1,为什么只有duration match时才能准确用定性判断?一定要计算吗?

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


计算是最准确的

也可以用定性判断

定性判断不能仅仅比较最长期限的PVBP,要综合比较所有期限的,选出短期PVBP相对大,中期接近或者小,长期相对小的portfolio

根据这道题已知的收益率曲线关键点,可以把1、3年当做短期,5年当做中期,10年、30年当做长期。这样比较的话,portfolio 2更好一些。

如果考试出现了这样的题,时间充裕的情况下建议同学还是计算一下,这样肯定不会选错。一旦考试时紧张,头脑不清醒,定性判断容易做出错误选择。
