问题如下:
A research report produced by a dealer includes the followings datas. The USD/GBP spot exchange rate is 0.8465, the 90day Libor rates for the USD and the GBP are 1.065% and 1.620%. Which of the following options is the most accurate of the 90-day forward points(the interest rates are on a basis of a 360-day year) in USD/GBP ?
选项:
A.–8.9.
B.–12.
C.12.
解释:
B is correct.
FUSD/GBP=S(USD/GBP)(1+iUSD)/(1+iGBP)=0.8465[(1+0.01065(90/360)]/[1+0.01620(90/360)]=0.8465*0.9986=0.8453
The forward points are 10000 × (F – S) = 10000 × (0.8453 – 0.8465) = 10000 × (–0.0012) = –12.
考点:Forward Premium and Discount
解析:
第一步,先算得远期汇率水平0.8453
F = 0.8465[(1+0.01065(90/360)]/[1+0.01620(90/360)]=0.8465*0.9986=0.8453
第二步,计算forward points :10000 × (F – S) = 10000 × (0.8453 – 0.8465) = 10000 × (–0.0012) = –12.
关于FORWARD POINT
是不是题目中给定了F或者S来确定FORWARD POINT 到底是乘以100还是10000
比如给定F是0.8765那算出来的差额就是乘以10000
比如给定F是87.65那就乘以100?
