I remember starting on the swaps desk at First Chicago (now J.P. Morgan) in 1991 and a letter was sent to me, Simon Rogers, on the S.W.A.P.S desk. Someone thought it stood for something, like Special Weapons And Products (!). It only means you are "swapping" cash flows. Always draw them out to make sure you are using the correct side of the bid/offer spread.

the timing of the valuation is important, we valuate the swap at 9th month, 3 months after the first coupon payment, thus, we receive next floating coupon in 3 months time base on the 6 months floating rate (5.5%). however, we discount the fv base on 3 months floating rate (5%) because the discount period is only 3 months

i still don't understand - we are going to pay coupon in 3 Mo but why take 6 Mo rate? 1. the rate that we are going to pay is already agreed 3 Mo back right? that rate is not given anywhere? 2. there are 3 floating coupon left but why only one pay coupon is taken in right side please explain

Hello David. I think the uncertainty on the floating rate side of this is here you use the 6m rate to calculate the floating coupon. It comes across on the video that you are using the 6m at the 3m point in time rater than the 6m rate at inception. However as you said the libor curve is not changing then this does in fact make sense.

It's a john hull example so .025, .50 is arbitrary: it's just to show pricing in-between coupons (T - 3 months to next coupon). Could be anything depending on T - ? to next coupon. Cash flows are independent of discounting. First, get the cash flows. Second, discount them. And the cash flows are based on, fixed at 8% semi and floating, based on 6 month libor i.e. 1/2 of 5.5%

@sammyjny Future coupon pays LIBOR that prevailed at PRIOR 6 month settle (if LIBOR curve static, prior 6 mo L = 5.5%). But that's annual bond equivalent, so future coupon = 5.5%/2. Discounting this $ to PV is next step, here disc. @ 3 mo. continuous. Your 100 par would be valid if 3 mo LIBOR = 6 mo LIBOR *and* coupon freq (semi-annual) = discount (continuous) Re the 0.75 and 1.25 floaters: actually, this is where your idea applies: at settle, bond = par, so 100 effectively impounds them

@sammyjny We you say is valid (of course) except it would give the same result. So it is merely a simplification that is possible only on the exact moment of settlement. When you asked why the bond isn't valued at par (100), that is the correct idea, at settle: our basis for determining future floating coupons is the forward rates and these necessarily reconcile with the discount rate. Similar to 100 * (1+r) / (1+r) = 100 but works for series of forwards. ...i'm not clear on your second part
@bionicturtle

@sammyjny ...(append) You've identified the two difficult ideas here: 1. Determination of (future) coupon cash flow is a function of the floating swap &, any time valuation is between coupon settlements, will differ from discount because the time horizon won't match (i.e., coupon is 6 month rate but discount is < 6 mo rate. Also, here the compound freq complicate) 2. At the future settlement exactly (here, +0.25 months), we do have a match. Then indeed discounted PV = par

Hi, thank you for the video. Quick question on the idea of pricing the legs. When you price the fixed leg, you take into account all the future coupon payments and notional and then discount them. However, when you price the floating leg, you consider just one coupon and the notional. I may be understanding something incorrectly and I would appreciate if you could help me understand the concept behind the pricing of floating leg.

@sammyjny.... the point is that the ISP is being valued in mid of the first leg of 6 months and hence if at that point of time want to know what am i getting i would need to take into account the fixed income part in toto while the payment in first leg that is floating leg is yet 3 months away and at 3 months form deal is what the example points to and hence the 3 month value of floating cupon is subtracted.... when we calculate at 0.5 yrs the value of ISP will be diff. hope some bit is clear...

everything makes sense to me except for the following: when the bond expires at t = 1.25, why do we use the libor rate only at t = .5 and not at .5, 1, and 1.25?
@notjustakill

Because we assume the libor curve does not change over time and the floating rate is based on the .5 year rate. Probably 8 years to late.

Hi Bionictutle. Firstly thank you for such a simple to understand tutorial on IRS. the only thing I don't understand is, by definition the variable leg of the swap is unknown, so how do you know what the swap rates should be? in your tutorial you made up those numbers, which means if i choose my own interest rate i can make the value of the swap to positive or negative.

Shouldn't the FV of floating-rate cash flows be the LIBOR rate on the previous payment date divided by 2 (semi-annually)plus notional? Why have we taken the value to be the 6m future LIBOR rate divided by 2 plus notional?

I am getting the value of swap as $3.6 when I took the 6 month LIBOR at 5.5%. The continuous compounding rate is 5.4257%. So the value of swap should be (4-2.75)e^(-0.0542*(3/12))+(4-2.75)e^(-0.0542*(9/12))+(4-2.75)e^(-0.0542*(15/12)) = 3.6. Please tell where I am going wrong?

I am not sure the logic presented here is very accurate for the floating leg, the floating rate should be unknown other than the first floating-rate cash flow payment. the actual valuation for the floating leg should be the first floating discounted plus 1 discounted to the present day for those unknown LIBOR rate cash flows.

Hey David, in an interest swap deal hull claims a fixed rate receiver is long the fixed rate bond and short the floating rate bond -- and the reverse is for the fixed rate payer. I am little confused by this construct because if the FR receiver is long the FR bond he/she is expecting interest rates to go down hence the increase in value of the FR bond (right?). But won't this be the same change in direction/value (i.e. an increase) for the FL rate bond since LIBOR would have gone down too.

@tradegenllc8926

Something is off, or perhaps it's escaping me: the basic assumption of an IRS swap is the PV for both legs at time of inception must be equal. If fixed payment is 8%/year the Libor should be equal to 8%, unless the agreement is for Libor +1, 2% or so. I think the LIBOR curve is unrealistic but also incorrect...what am I missing?
@bionicturtle
5 жыл бұрын
no, only if the spot/zero rate curve is flat (which would actually be unrealistic, to have no term premium). Otherwise, we expect the swap rate to be different than the current (libor) spot rate. I don't know what you mean by unrealistic LIBOR. A fair swap rate at inception reflects the term structure which tends to be non-flat. This is all really basic, established theory (true the video is over 10 years old, as you can see by the date). Please note that I have a more current playlist including more current IRS valuation here kzitem.info/news/bejne/1XyN1YqKgZVkdII

From there calculate Fwd rates to define the floating leg's cashflows... Does it make sense to you?
