问一道题:NO.PZ2018113001000033 [ CFA III ]

问题如下:

A $100 million portfolio is allocated 60% to bonds and 40% to stocks. The bond portion is allocated 80% to government bonds and 20% to corporate bonds. The stocks portion is allocated 80% to domestic stocks and 20% to international stocks. The manager wants to change the total portfolio to 70% to bonds and 30% to stocks and remain the same allocation within stocks portion and bond portions. Which swap is least likely to be used to achieve the target?

选项:

A.

receive return on government bonds on $8 million, pay return on domestic stock on $8 million

B.

receive return on corporate bonds on $2 million, pay return on international stock on $2 million

C.

receive return on corporate bonds on $8 million, pay return on international stock on $8 million

解释:

C is correct.

考点:equity swap

解析:

现在有60M投资于债券,40M投资于股票。

在60M的债券中,有48M投资于government bonds,12M投资于corporate bonds。

在40M的股票中,有32M投资于domestic stock,8M投资于international stocks。

目标是:70M投资于债券,30M投资股票。

在70M的债券中,有56M投资于government bonds,14M投资于corporate bonds。

在30M的股票中,有24M投资于domestic stock,6M投资于international stocks。

因此,总的来说,应该:

增加10M债券,其中government bonds增加8M,corporate bonds增加2M。

减少10M股票,其中domestic stock减少8M,international stocks减少2M。

所以应该进入两个互换合约,

一个是NP为8M,receive return on government bonds, pay return on domestic stock

另一个是NP为2M,receive return on corporate bonds, pay return on international stock

题目问的是最不可能的一项,所以选C。

老师: 您好。这题有些不懂,既然是增加10M债券,意味着通过swap换出equity,换入bond,那么return应该相反呀。即pay return of bond,receive return of stock。我的理解有何问题,谢谢。

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


同学你好,

原始的组合是60M债券,40M股票,享受了60M债券带来的收益以及40M股票带来的收益;而进行swap的目的是把组合收益调整为70M债券的收益和30M股票的收益,所以要把原本多的10M股票收益换出去,换回来10M债券的收益,我们并没有真的把股票卖了买债券,而只是互换收益,使得组合最终的收益特征满足要求。
