问一道题:NO.PZ2019070101000105 [ FRM I ]

问题如下:

Which is the primary advantage of the option-adjusted spread (OAS) over the static spread?

选项:

A.

OAS uses the entire term structure instead of a single point

B.

OAS, being a valuation model, is not biased by the market price of the bond

C.

OAS allows for cash flow changes due to interest rate changes

D.

None, they are the same

解释:

This is the key idea: while static (Z) spread treats the term structure of rates as static, the OAS simulates several interest rate paths and therefore can model cash flow changes. In regard to (A), this is not correct because both OAS and static spread use the entire term structure. In regard to (B), this is false: OAS solves for yield that equates to market price.

所以A选项Zspead也同样的,所以不算是OAS的基本优点对吧?

同学你好!

是的,因为选项A描述的属于 OAS 和 Z spread 共同的特征,而题目问题里问的是 OAS 优于 Z spread 的特征,即OAS具有而Z spread不具备的优点,所以不选A
