Interest Rate Risk
|
adverse change in the price of a fixed income security due to changes in the level of interest rates
If interest rate goes up, the price of a fixed income security will go down. (inverse relationship) |

Yield Curve Risk Credit Risk |
|
Interest Rate Risk Factors
|
Maturity – positive relationship
Coupon – inverse relationship Yield – inverse relationship |
|
Yield Curve Risk
|
investor may not be able to estimate the change in price of a bond portfolio if there is a nonparallel shift in the yield curve
|
|
Key Rate Duration
|
an estimation technique to address nonparallel shifts in the yield curve.

|
Default Risk
Credit Spread Risk Downgrade Risk |
|
Liquidity Risk
|
risk to an investor that will be difficult to quickly sell
|
|
Reinvestment Risk
|
investment rate at which the future cash flows from a fixed income security can be reinvested will decrease.
none for a zero coupon bond |
|
Call Risk
|
risk that a callable fixed income security will be "pursued" before maturity.
|

Event Risk
|
Natural Catastrophe Risk
Corporate Take Over Risk Political Risk |

|
a drop in the price of a fixed income security
|
|
Exchange rate Risk
|
Risk due to Currency Slippage
|
|
Sovereign Risk
|
risk of security issued by foreign government where action of the government may result in default or adverse price change.
|
|
Yield to Maturity (YTM) (formula)
|
Annual Interest / Current Price
|
|
Coupon Rate (Formula)
|
YTM * Bond Price
|
|
Discount Bond
|
Current Yield > Coupon Rate
|
|
Premium Bond
|
Current Yield < Coupon Rate
|
|
Par Bond
|
Current Yield = Coupon Yield
|
|
Warranted Bond Price
|
the sum of discounted future cash inflows including the discounted terminal value.
An annual discount rate Kd is given that is divided by 2 when used with semiannual pay bonds. |
|
Yield-To-Maturity (YTM)
|
the discount rate such that the sum of the discounted present values of the remaining cash flows is equal to the bond price.
|
|
Annual Pay YTM
|
[1 + YTM/2]^2 – 1
|
|
Effective Semiannual Yield
|
[1 + Annual Pay YTM]^0.5 – 1
|
|
Sources of Return on a Bond
|
Coupon Interest Payments
Reinvested coupon interest payments Capital Gain (or Loss) |
|
Realized Compound Annual YTM
|
([FBIV / BP]^(1/T)) – 1
i = (FV / PV)1/t – 1.] |
|
Duration (Formula)
|
(V(-) - V(o)) / (2 x V(o) x ΔYTM)
where V(-) = the price if yields declines V(+)= the price if yield increases V(o) is the initial price |
|
Approximate % Price Change of Bond (Formula)
|
-[Duration x Yield change x 100]
|
|
Dollar Duration (Formula)
|
(Duration x Bond Price) / 100
|
|
Convexity Measure (Formula)
|
[V(+) + V(-) - (2V(o)]/[2 x V(o) x (Δ YTM)^2]
where V(-) = the price if yields declines V(+)= the price if yield increases V(o) is the initial price |
|
Convexity adjustment (Formula)
|
estimated convexity x (ΔYTM)^2 x 100
where: ΔYTM = the decimal change in yield to maturity |
|
Modified Duration (Formula)
|
Macaulay Duration/[1 + YTM/n]
where n=Number of periods/payments per year |
|
Effective Duration (Formula)
|
[V(-) - V(+)]/[2 * V(o) * ΔYTM]
where V(-) = the price if yields declines V(+)= the price if yield increases V(o) is the initial price |
|
Price Value of a Basis Point (PVBP) (Formula)
|
Initial price - price if yield is changed by 1 basis point
or Duration * ΔYTM * 100 |
