2022-12-01 16:28Q. The CIO of a Canadian private equity company wants to lock in the interest on a three-month “bridge” loan his firm will take out in six months to complete an LBO deal. He sells the relevant interest rate futures contracts at 98.05. In six-months’ time, he initiates the loan at 2.70% and unwinds the hedge at 97.30. The effective interest rate on the loan is: A0.75%. B1.95%. C2.70%. 這題什么意思呀

同學您好
這個題的CIO想在6個月后借錢進行一筆LBO,因此擔心利率上漲,所以想對沖這上風險,就要鎖定6個月以后的遠期利率,因此他賣出eurodollar futures,是以98.05的價格,根據(jù)eurodollar futures的報價形式,這就相當于鎖定了未來的遠期利率為98.05=100 - annualized forward rate,因此相當于鎖定了未來的遠期利率就為1.95%.
以6個月以后,市場上3個月的利率為2.7%。因此直接借款的利率為2.7%,但是eurodollar futures的價格下跌了,因此我們從中獲利了0.75%,因為我們是做空頭,所以eurodollar futures價格下跌,我們是賺錢的。
因此,結合兩個頭寸,在市場上直接借錢的利率為2.7%,但是eurudollar futures幫我們賺了0.75%,兩者結合,相當于我們實際真正借錢的有效利率只有1.95%。effective rate就是我們實際真正借錢的利率。
