IRRM - hedging through cap

AFM

answered on 24-Jan-25 08:31

In ILL 13, loan period = 24 months (6 months LIBOR i.e. 4 periods). Reset reset is given for upcoming 3 periods. Option Premium = Rs. 1,50,000 PVAF of premium (3.5%, 4 period) calculated = 40,837. Why 4 periods is considered for discounting? Is it arrived assuming that the cap is purchased before the first period, and that the net effect of interest rate risk heading is specifically asked over the given three periods, excluding the first? Can we solve it making note that cap is bought on 1st period and duration of cap = 18 months (3 periods). PVAF of premium = 150000/PVAF(3.5%, 3 periods) = 53540

answered on 24-Jan-25 07:18

In this question unlike other examples where Required margin will be applied as % on daily closing levels, in this case its a problem considering the meam=n + SD, so the Margin is fixed level Right ?

Mean and sad keep chafing as days go by Typically there margin levels are changed once a month /2 when there is low volatility If volatility is high exchanges can change is for lower frequency also

AFM

answered on 23-Jan-25 18:46

Sir you Said In India we Borrow from Banks and NBFC Largely and on the other hand you are saying the Equity MARKET IS LARGE IN India as Compared to debt Market Can you please elaborate a little bit

latest answer

we all invest in shares but do not invest significantly in debt offerrings Corporate Debt market is undeveloped as we have poor bankruptcy procedures ( it takes years together) and debt guys like to get back money if biz shuts down. They have lower risk appetite than eq guys Becuase eq is highest end of risk we invest in it a lower risk instrument like debt req better systems which we do not have

Perfect Hedge

AFM

answered on 24-Jan-25 07:16

Sir when we do perfect Heding we end up in a situation No net gain/loss, so in this case when the Index becomes 27000, then Gain from futures is 9,69,750 as calulated in the solution, and the loss on the value of poroflio shares will be 6060000 * 15%(10%down *1.5 beta) = 9,09,000 So, Gain in futures by Rs 9,69,750 Loss in Portfolio shares by Rs 9,09,000 So why this difference ?, how to interpret this difference

latest answer

In this question basis risk arises on account of hedging instrument maturity and hedging duration being diff If u use same maturity instrument u will not have any diff In some cases it is because of rounding off

answered on 23-Jan-25 14:38

Are all investments in Open ended unlisted securities as they are not listed on Stock exchange. That means all SIPs are unlisted securities?? Don't they invest in listed securities??

latest answer

They invested in listed securities but their NAV is not shown on stock exchange but they compute & upload their NAV on their website, AMFI website and when we all trade, that NAV which is disclosed on website
