Supported Interest-Rate Instrument Functions

Bond

A bond is a long-term debt security with a preset interest-rate and maturity. At maturity, you must pay the principal and interest.

The price or value of a bond is determined by discounting the expected cash flows of the bond to the present, using the appropriate discount rate. The following equation represents the relationship of the expected cash flows and discount rate:

B0=C2[1(1+r2)2tr2]+F(1+r2)2t

where:

B0 is the bond value.

C is the annual coupon payment.

F is the face value of the bond.

r is the required return on the bond.

t is the number of years remaining until maturity.

Convertible Bond

A convertible bond is a financial instrument that combines equity and debt features. It is a bond with the embedded option to turn it into a fixed number of shares. The holder of a convertible bond has the right, but not the obligation, to exchange the convertible security for a predetermined number of equity shares at a preset price. The debt component is derived from the coupon payments and the principal. The equity component is provided by the conversion feature.

Convertible bonds have several defining features:

  • Coupon — The coupon in convertible bonds are typically lower than coupons in vanilla bonds since investors are willing to take the lower coupon for the opportunity to participate in the company’s stock via the conversion.

  • Maturity — Most convertible bonds are issued with long-stated maturities. Short-term maturity convertible bonds usually do not have call or put provisions.

  • Conversion ratio — Conversion ratio is the number of shares that the holder of the convertible bond receives from exercising the call option of the convertible bond:

    Conversion ratio = par value convertible bond/conversion price of equity

    For example, a conversion ratio of 25 means a bond can be exchanged for 25 shares of stock. This also implies a conversion price of $40 (1000/25). This, $40, would be the price at which the owner would buy the shares. This can be expressed as a ratio or as the conversion price and is specified in the contract along with other provisions.

  • Option type:

    • Callable Convertible: a convertible bond that is callable by the issuer. The issuer of the bond forces conversion, removing the advantage that conversion is at the discretion of the bondholder. Upon call, the bondholder can either convert the bond or redeem at the call price. This option enables the issuer to control the price of the convertible bond and if necessary refinance the debt with a new cheaper one.

    • Puttable Convertible: a convertible bond with a put feature that allows the bondholder to sell back the bond at a premium on a specific date. This option protects the holder against rising interest rates by reducing the year to maturity.

Sinking Fund Bonds

A sinking fund bond is a coupon bond with a sinking fund provision. This provision obligates the issuer to amortize portions of the principal before maturity, affecting bond prices since the time of the principal repayment changes. This means that investors receive the coupon and a portion of the principal paid back over time. These types of bonds reduce credit risk, since it lowers the probability of investors not receiving their principal payment at maturity. For more information on options support for sinking fund bonds, see Sinking Fund Bonds with an Embedded Option.

Bond with Embedded Options

A bond with embedded options allows the issuer to buy back (callable) or redeem (puttable) the bond at a predetermined price at specified future dates. Financial Instruments Toolbox supports American, European, and Bermuda callable and puttable bonds.

The pricing for a bond with embedded options is as follows:

  • For a callable bond:PriceCallableBond=BondPrice-BondCallOption

    In the callable case, the holder bought a bond and sold a call option to the issuer. For example, if interest rates go down by the time of the call date, the issuer is able to refinance its debt at a cheaper level and can call the bond.

  • For a puttable bond: PricePuttableBond = PriceBond + PricePutOption

    In the puttable case, the holder bought a bond and a put option. For example, if interest rates rise, the future value of coupon payments becomes less valuable. Therefore, the investor can sell the bond back to the issuer and then lend proceeds elsewhere at a higher rate.

In addition, Option Adjusted Spread (OAS) is a useful way to value and compare securities with embedded options, like callable or puttable bonds. For more information on OAS, see OAS for Callable and Puttable Bonds.

Sinking Fund Bonds with an Embedded Option

A sinking fund bond is a coupon bond with a sinking fund provision. For more information on sinking fund bonds, see Sinking Fund Bonds. The sinking fund bond can have a sinking fund option provision allowing the issuer to retire the sinking fund obligation either by purchasing the bonds to be redeemed from the market or by calling the bond via a sinking fund call, whichever is cheaper.

If interest rates are high, then the issuer buys back the required amount of bonds from the market since bonds are cheap. But if interest rates are low (bond prices are high), then most likely the issuer buys the bonds at the call price. Unlike a call feature, however, if a bond has a sinking fund option provision, it is an obligation, not an option, for the issuer to buy back the increments of the issue as stated. Because of this, a sinking fund bond trades at a lower price than a nonsinking fund bond. The following functions have a modified Face argument to support a variable face schedule for pricing bonds with a sinking fund option provision.

Amortizing Callable or Puttable Bond

Amortizing callable or puttable bonds work under a scheduled Face input argument. An amortizing callable bond give the issuer the right to call back the bond, but instead of paying the Face amount at maturity, it repays part of the principal along with the coupon payments. An amortizing puttable bond, repays part of the principal along with the coupon payments and gives the bondholder the right to sell the bond back to the issuer.

Floating-Rate Note with Caps, Collars, and Floors

A floating-rate note with caps, collars, and floors. This type of instrument can carry restrictions on the maximum (cap) or minimum (floor) coupon rate paid. A cap is an unattractive feature for an investor, since they constrain the coupon rates from increasing. A floor is an attractive feature, since it allows investors to get a minimum coupon rate when market rates decrease below a certain level. Also, a floating-rate note can have a collar which is a combination of a cap and a floor together. The following functions have a CapRate and FloorRate argument to support a capped, collared, or floored floating-rate note.

Range Note

A range note is a structured (market-linked) security whose coupon-rate is equal to the reference rate as long as the reference rate is within a certain range. If the reference rate is outside of the range, the coupon-rate is 0 for that period. This type of instrument entitles the holder to cash flows that depend on the level of some reference interest-rate that is floored to be positive and gives the holder of the note direct exposure to the reference rate. This type of instrument is useful for cases where you believe that interest rates will stay within a certain range. In return for the drawback that no interest is paid for the time the range is left, a range note offers higher coupon rates than comparable standard products, like vanilla floating notes.

Bond Futures

Bond futures are futures contracts where the commodity for delivery is a government bond. There are established global markets for government bond futures. Bond futures provide a liquid alternative for managing interest-rate risk.

In the US market, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) offers futures on Treasury bonds and notes with maturities of 2, 5, 10, and 30 years. Typically, the following bond future contracts from the CME have maturities of 3, 6, 9, and 12 months:

The short position in a Treasury bond or note future contract must deliver to the long position in one of many possible existing Treasury bonds. For example, in a 30-year Treasury bond future, the short position must deliver a Treasury bond with at least 15 years to maturity. Because these bonds have different values, the bond future contract is standardized by computing a conversion factor. The conversion factor normalizes the price of a bond to a theoretical bond with a coupon of 6%. The price of a bond future contract is represented as:

InvoicePrice=FutPrice×CF+AI

where:

FutPrice is the price of the bond future.

CF is the conversion factor for a bond to deliver in a futures contract.

AI is the accrued interest.

The short position in a futures contract has the option of which bond to deliver and, in the US bond market, when in the delivery month to deliver the bond. The short position typically chooses to deliver the bond known as the Cheapest to Deliver (CTD). The CTD bond most often delivers on the last delivery day of the month.

Financial Instruments Toolbox supports the following bond futures:
