问一道题:NO.PZ2017121101000008

问题如下:

A US institutional investor in search of yield decides to buy Italian government bonds for her portfolio but wants to hedge against the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. She enters a cross-currency basis swap, with the same payment dates as the bonds, where at inception she delivers US dollars in exchange for euros for use in purchasing the Italian bonds.

Assume demand for US dollars is strong relative to demand for euros, so there is a positive basis for “lending” US dollars. By hedging the position in Italian government bonds with the currency basis swap, the US investor will most likely increase the periodic net interest payments received from the swap counterparty in:

选项:

A.

euros only.

B.

US dollars only.

C.

both euros and US dollars.

解释:

B is correct.

By hedging the position in Italian government bonds with the cross-currency basis swap, the US investor will most likely increase the periodic net interest she receives in US dollars. The reason is that the periodic net interest payments made by the swap counterparty to the investor will include the positive basis resulting from the relatively strong demand for US dollars versus euros.

basis都是针对非美元这边的,那意味着投资者在期间支付欧元的利息可以-basis,所以我理解他收的美元没变,但是支付的欧元少了,所以收益在欧元端啊?

嗨,爱思考的PZer你好:


同学你好,这道题的交易是期初给dealer美元,换到欧元,然后用欧元买欧洲债券(意大利债券);

期间收美元利息,支付欧元利息,另外还有一部分basis;

由于美元需求大,dealer愿意给换出美元的投资者每期一个正的basis,所以收美元利息的这一边会更多一点。

如果你的计算方法是basis是负值也是一样的,同样是美元这边-basis,负负得正。

这道题在我们的课后题讲解视频中是第5题,同学可以再去听一下老师的详解。

NO.PZ2017121101000008 你好,教材中提到(上面),basis是quoteon non-USleg。但是题目中的Basis是跟在了US面。 首先,可以为是跟着EUR的话negative basis么? 另外,这种情况下,仍然是paying the basis么 (如下面)? 跟进一步,pay/receive basis与basis的正负有没有关系?

NO.PZ2017121101000008 1、the US investor will most likely increase the perioc net interest payments receivefrom the swcounterparty in:q请问这句话是什么意思呢?为什么是在问期间付什么计价的利率呢? 2、positive basis 和这个问题是不是没有关系?如果是negative positive,firm想做currenbasis swap也必须在期间付美元利息的
