Re: RFR Backward-looking in-arrears and Libor in arrears

I am not answering your question but there is some discussion about Swaps that are instead of compounding the RFR rate it is actually averaged and at this point people in the market talk about the convexity adjustment. For clarity, the averaged swap is not a vanilla RFR swap but a swap that often he...

Re: Pricing IRBS using Avg Arithmetic Fed Funds

you mean Fed fund rates vs 3M Libor Basis swap? If it can help you, the adjustment is negligible. Soon we may have long dated 1D SOFR swaps where the cashflow is calculated based on the average rate rather than compounded rate (custom swap to hedge the corresponding loan). For a 30Y Fixed vs SOFR a...

Re: Average/asian swap

I would be interested in this topic as soon you will have averaging SOFR swaps possibly that will be very long dated. The reason is that Libor loans may get converted to SOFR loans that are not compounding like OIS swaps but averaged becuase of loan system limitations. The swap to hedge will then be...

SOFR Fallback impact on swaptions

ISDA has some preliminary recommendations on the fallback for Libor swaps when Libor stops being quoted end of 2021. I have been asked to estimate the MTM impact of a portfolio on this fallback. On a high level the fallback states that Libor+Spread becomes SOFR+Spread+Adjustment where the Adjustment...

UPRO and dividend yield

<t>UPRO returns roughly 3x the daily return of the S&P 500. However, it states that the dividend yield is almost 0%. I understand that when I own SPDR I receive the dividends. Does this mean that when you invest in UPRO you will not receive any dividends (that would be a bad deal) or are the div...

introduce the best structure pricer system for interest rate derivatives product

you should look at the Summit application which is being sold by Misys. It has a structuring tool called MUST for structuring arbitrary payoffs and then it can be priced with BGM or has a link into Numerix for pricing.
