Lending rate for 1, 2 weeks and 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Recently established as a benchmark rate for all corporate term lending.

BONDS
Investments for period of more than 1 year. Currently, PIBs are auctioned by SBP (traded in Primary Market). FIBs are no more auctioned and are traded in the secondary market. Riskier than T-Bills because of longer Tmaturity and presence of coupons.

Coupons to be received during life of the bond, and Principal repayment at the maturity.
C1 1+ i
+
Price =
C2 (1+ i)2
+ .+
Cn (1+ i)n
FV (1+ i)n

Bonds Pricing
Issued / traded at Premium or Discount depending upon the coupon rate and the market yield for the tenors. Bond trades at Premium when:
Coupon Rate > Market Yield and vice versa.
24
Bonds Pricing

Duration
Measures the Interest Rate Risk or Price Risk. Measures the change in price of the bond w.r.t change in the yield.
Price
Change in Price as the yield drops by 1%
Yield
3% 4%
27
Duration
Higher for papers with longer maturity. Lower for bonds with higher coupon rate. For a zero coupon bond, duration is approx. equal to life of the bond. However, duration of a zero coupon security is higher compared to that of coupon bonds.
28
PVBP
Calculates the change in price as a result of 1 basis point (0.01%) change in yield. As Duration measures the change in price for 100 basis point change in yield, PVBP is: PVBP = Duration (for 1%) / 100
29
Convexity
The change in duration for a change in yield. Convexity adjusts the flaw in the price estimated by duration, especially for larger changes in the yield.

Convexity Adjustment

Convexity
Duration underestimates the increase in Bonds price and overestimates the decline. Therefore, Convexity adjustment is to be added to the duration estimate in both the cases of price increase or decrease.

Derivatives are sometimes referred to as contingent claims. Derivatives contracts are of two types:
At a specified future date (settlement date) For a specified tenor For a specified interest rate (forward rate)
FRA buyer hedges against rising interest rates. Buy a 6-over-9M FRA for PKR10 Million at 9% 6-over
Agreement to...
Borrow PKR 10 Million for 3M At a date 6M from today At 9% cost
34
In choosing option 2 the runs the risk that interest rates will rise within three months and that overall funding cost will be above 8 3/8% To guard against this risk, the bank could buy a three against six FRA which is being quoted at 8 - 8 .. By buying a 3/6 FRA at 8 % the bank locks in a borrowing cost of 8 % from the third to the sixth month. The overall cost of borrowing in this fashion is 8.36% almost exactly the same as borrowing for six months at 8 3/8 %.

IRS - Applications
If the borrowers view is that PKR interest rates will go higher an IRS synthetically converts a floating rate loan into a fixed rate loan (or vice versa). Users may be able to better match assets and liabilities using an interest rate swap; matching dates, floating or fixed interest rates. Exchange certainly for uncertainty Synthetically convert a fixed rate liability into a floating rate liability if the borrowers view is that PKR interest rates will move lower.
