C为什么不对

NO.PZ2021120102000010

问题如下:

Which of the following statements best describes empirical duration?

选项:

A.

A common way to calculate a bond’s empirical duration is to run a regression of its price returns on changes in a benchmark interest rate.

B.

A bond’s empirical duration tends to be larger than its effective duration.

C.

The price sensitivity of high-yield bonds to interest rate changes is typically higher than that of investment-grade bonds

解释:

A is correct. A bond’s empirical duration is often estimated by running a regression of its price returns on changes in a benchmark interest rate.

C:The price sensitivity of high-yield bonds to interest rate changes is typically higher than that of investment-grade bonds

参考LM 4的标题empirical duration这个视频;Or讲义275页

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


C选项说反了。


主题干讨论的是empirical duration,三个选项都是关于Empirical duration的讨论哈。

关于empirical duration正确的结论就是,high-yield bond的empirical duration要小于investment-grade bond的empirical duration


原因是empirical duration是利用债券的实际价格变动Benchmark rate的改变做的回归。即:

y = a + bx + 残差项


其中因变量y就是债券价格的实际改变,而x自变量就是benchmark rate的改变,回归出来的系数b,其含义就是benchmark rate变动1单位时,债券的实际价格变动多少单位,所以系数b本质就是empirical duration。


对于公司债来讲,当benchmark rate改变时,债券的实际价格波动,也就是因变量y是比较小的,所以1单位x改变带来的y改变较少,于是回归出来的系数b,empirical duraiton较小。

而同样一单位的benchmark rate改变,投资级别的债券investment grade bond的价格改变y较大,所以回归出来的系数b,empirical duration较大。


原因就是high-yield bond会出现较大的benchmark rate与credit spread的反向抵消变化,这导致债券的YTM改变不大,于是导致HYB的价格波动不大。


比如,benchmark rate上升1%,而HYB的Credit spread下降0.8%,于是HYB债券的YTM只上升了0.2%,基于0.2%的YTM改变,HYB的实际价格波动比较小。


利用HYB较小的实际价格波动(因变量y)和benchmark rate的改变1%(自变量x)做回归算出来的系数empirical duration就较小。


而对于Investment grade bond来讲,benchmark rate上升1%,其credit spread只下降0.1%,于是债券的YTM上升0.9%,基于这样的YTM改变,其实际价格波动较大。

于是基于较高的实际价格变化和Benchmark rate上升1%做回归出来的empirical duration就较大。


总结下:越是垃圾债,benchmark rate与credit spread的反向变化关系就越明显,其价格对benchmark rate的敏感度就越低,因为benchmark rate的改变绝大部分被credit spread反向改变抵消了,最终引起的价格变动就小,所以HYB对benchmark rate就不敏感,即,empirical duration小,小于Investment grade bond的ED。
