为啥不能选B?

NO.PZ2019103001000033

问题如下:

Doug Kepler, the newly hired chief financial officer for the City of Radford, asks the deputy financial manager, Hui Ng, to prepare an analysis of the current investment portfolio and the city’s current and future obligations. The city has multiple liabilities of different amounts and maturities relating to the pension fund, infrastructure repairs, and various other obligations.

Ng observes that the current fixed-income portfolio is structured to match the duration of each liability. Previously, this structure caused the city to access a line of credit for temporary mismatches resulting from changes in the term structure of interest rates

Kepler asks Ng for different strategies to manage the interest rate risk of the city’s fixed-income investment portfolio against one-time shifts in the yield curve. Ng considers two different strategies:

Strategy 1: Immunization of the single liabilities using zero-coupon bonds held to maturity

Strategy 2: Immunization of the single liabilities using coupon-bearing bonds while continuously matching duration.

The effects of a non-parallel shift in the yield curve on Strategy 2 can be reduced by:

选项:

A.

minimizing the convexity of the bond portfolio.

B.

maximizing the cash flow yield of the bond portfolio.

C.

minimizing the difference between liability duration and bond-portfolio duration.

解释:

A is correct.

Minimizing the convexity of the bond portfolio minimizes the dispersion of the bond portfolio. A non-parallel shift in the yield curve may result in changes in the bond portfolio’s cash flow yield. In summary, the characteristics of a bond portfolio structured to immunize a single liability are that it (1) has an initial market value that equals or exceeds the present value of the liability, (2) has a portfolio Macaulay duration that matches the liability’s due date, and (3) minimizes the portfolio convexity statistic.

您的回答B, 正确答案是: A

A

正确minimizing the convexity of the bond portfolio.

B

maximizing the cash flow yield of the bond portfolio.

C

minimizing the difference between liability duration and bond-portfolio duration.


A能选,为啥B不能选,根据convexity的公式,当CFY增加的时候convexity 减小,最大化CFY也可以是认为最小化convexity啊

嗨,爱思考的PZer你好:


这是原版书的原话

虽然最大化CFY,如果mac D和dispersion改变的话,也无法min convexity

请问题目中不是说针对multiple liabilities吗?那么为何是选择convexity最小的状况呢?
