What is the index in the IBS paper
Electives - Final
answered on 12-Aug-26 09:26
Can anyone describe what an index is and how to use it, we have to make our own ?
latest answer
Index as a strategy has not been quite successful in the last few attempts. You should focus on practicing 1-2 case studies per day to figure out where the respective topics and answer lie.

to get the product why should we calculate principal*no of months [Video Time Stamp: 09:18]
latest answer
Since the borrowings are made at different dates, we are computing equivalent borrowings for 1 month. Like if 20 is outstanding for 12 months - its same as 240 outstanding for 1 month.

answered on 10-Aug-26 20:46
2 bonds both are same risk bond A had OAS 50bps bond B 35bps which bond is over valued Bond A Bond B Nethir bond A OR B Ans with explenation pls
latest answer
Bond B is overvalued. Option-Adjusted Spread measures the extra yield an investor gets for taking risk. Higher OAS means the bond is cheaper and offers better value. Lower OAS means the bond is more expensive for the same risk. Since both bonds have the same risk, Bond A offers a higher spread (50 bps) than Bond B (35 bps). Therefore, Bond A is undervalued (cheap) and Bond B is overvalued (expensive).
