问题如下:
The CEO of a corporation owns 100 million shares of his company’s stock, which is currently priced at €30 a share. Given the huge exposure of his personal wealth to this one company, he has decided to sell 10% of his position and invest the funds in a floating interest rate instrument. A derivatives dealer suggests that he do so using an equity swap.
Explain how to structure such a swap.

解释:
The swap is structured such that the executive pays the return on 10 million shares of the company’s stock, which is 10% of his holdings, and he receives the return based on a floating interest rate, such as the market reference rate, on a notional principal of €300 million (= €30/share × 10 million shares).

请问receive的这个资产是stock还是bond? 什么是market reference rate? 可以举例说明吗? 谢谢
