问一道题:NO.PZ2019103001000079

问题如下:

Easton and Avelyn next discuss credit strategy approaches. Dynamo uses a bottom-up approach that selects bonds with the best relative value from the universe of bonds with similar characteristics.

Which of the following is most likely to be used when selecting securities based on Dynamo’s credit strategy approach?

选项:

A.

Macro factors

B.

Expected excess returns

C.

Average option-adjusted spread

解释:

B is correct.

Analyzing expected excess returns against the expected magnitude of the credit-related risks is key to the bottom-up approach. Once the credit universe has been divided into sectors, the investor identifies the bonds with the best relative value within each sector. If Dynamo decides that two issuers have similar credit-related risks, then it will typically compare credit spread measures and buy the bonds of the issuer with the higher spread because those bonds likely have a higher potential for excess returns. For issuers with different credit-related risk, Dynamo must decide whether the additional spread adequately compensates for the additional credit risk.

OAS spread is one way to compare relative value across credit security. 为什么不能选C来选择bond?谢谢

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


"OAS spread is one way to compare relative value across credit security. 为什么不能选C来选择bond?"


对的,OAS可以用来判断债券间的Relative value,这个没有问题。但是注意C选项是Average OAS,这是一个平均数据,不是个股指标。

这道题是说在Bottom-up的方法下,通过Relative value来选择债券投资,所以一定要用个股指标来判断,只有B选项是针对债券的个股指数;

其实就是判断一下,三个选项的指标是否是个股指标,可以直接用在债券间的比较,如果是个股指标,在Bottom-up时可以用。

C如果是OAS的话,完全没有问题,这就是个股指标;但是C说的是Average OAS,咱们学的这个Average OAS是指Portfolio的平均OAS指标,所以他不是个股指标。

虽然我们可以算某个个股在历史时期内的Average OAS,这个是个股指标,但是咱们原版书在讲解Average OAS就专指Portfolio的Average OAS,所以他不是个股指标。

参考下图,用Expected excess returns来分析个股间的Relative value:


如果题目没有专门强调,Average OAS就当成Portfolio指标,参考下图讲义与原版书:
