问题如下:
Consider the following 6×9 FRA, Assume the buyer of the FRA agrees to a contract rate of 6.35% on a notional amount of 10 million USD. Assume a 30/360 day count basis. What is the settlement amount of the seller if the settlement rate is 6.85%?
选项:
A.-$12,290.
B.$12,290.
C.-$12,500.
D.$12,500.
解释:
A is correct.
考点:Forward Rate Agreement
解析:
这里要注意一个陷阱,因为题目最后问的是seller,所以应该是-12,290。
我在t=9时刻 (6.85%-6.35%)x 10million 就是这个时刻的现金流
再折算到t=6时刻 就是乘以1/(1+6.85%x3/12)这才settement 啊。答案分子上面乘以3/12是什么意思?三观给我惊掉了
