Q. 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%. 这题什么意思呀

同学您好
这个题的CIO想在6个月后借钱进行一笔LBO,因此担心利率上涨,所以想对冲这上风险,就要锁定6个月以后的远期利率,因此他卖出eurodollar futures,是以98.05的价格,根据eurodollar futures的报价形式,这就相当于锁定了未来的远期利率为98.05=100 - annualized forward rate,因此相当于锁定了未来的远期利率就为1.95%.
以6个月以后,市场上3个月的利率为2.7%。因此直接借款的利率为2.7%,但是eurodollar futures的价格下跌了,因此我们从中获利了0.75%,因为我们是做空头,所以eurodollar futures价格下跌,我们是赚钱的。
因此,结合两个头寸,在市场上直接借钱的利率为2.7%,但是eurudollar futures帮我们赚了0.75%,两者结合,相当于我们实际真正借钱的有效利率只有1.95%。effective rate就是我们实际真正借钱的利率。
