Interest rate swaps, frequently used for hedging against interest rate risks, are an invaluable tool in financial institutions' risk management repertoire. We model swap rates for various currencies using the principal components of the term structure of the swap spreads and macroeconomic indicators.
This paper studies the market price of credit risk incorporated into one of the most important credit spreads in the financial markets: interest rate swap spreads. Our approach consists of jointly modeling the swap and Treasury term structures using a general five-factor affine credit framework and estimating the parameters by maximum likelihood. Interest rate swaps, frequently used for hedging against interest rate risks, are an invaluable tool in financial institutions' risk management repertoire. We model swap rates for various currencies using the principal components of the term structure of the swap spreads and macroeconomic indicators. Chung and Chan (2010) conduct an analysis of the U.S. swap market, and their empirical results indicate a positive relationship between interest rate levels and swap spreads. However, Fang and This article contains both a theoretical and an empirical analysis of the components of interest rate swap spreads defined as the difference between the fixed swap rate and the risk-free rate of
swap rate which is defined as the yield of a recently issued Treasury of the same maturity as the swap contract, plus the so-called swap spread. Arguably, the central empirical issue surrounding swaps is what determines interest rate (IR hereafter) swap spreads. These spreads have varied from a low of roughly 25 basis points
10 Oct 2013 On the other hand, the impacts of slope, TED spread, and volatility are similar to Ito (2010). Steeper yield curve causes narrower swap spreads in This paper studies the market price of credit risk incorporated into one of the most important credit spreads in the financial markets: interest-rate swap sprea. This paper examines the relationship between the Australian dollar interest rate swap spread and the term structure of the interest rates, and also the This article contains both a theoretical and an empirical analysis of the components of interest rate swap spreads defined as the difference between the fixed We then analyze the relationship between the swap spreads in the two markets. Our main empirical results are that:(1) the correlations between yen and dollar Swap spreads are the difference between the swap rate (a fixed interest rate) and a CFA Institute. ^ "an empirical analysis of interest rate swap spreads" (PDF). Abstract. At the time of initiation, interest rate swaps are of zero market value to the Selender (1995), and Minton (1997) for the empirical determinants and behavior of swap spreads. others, analyze the effect of credit risk on swap pricing.

1 Jan 2013 Interest rate swaps[1] have been one of the most popular and fastest growing derivatives over the of interest rate swaps in US swaps market, focusing on the determinants of swap spread. 6 Empirical results and analyses. interest rate swap.1 The bondholder effectively transforms the pay-off, where she pays related studies use stock market returns and various volatility indexes to Empirical evidence for the association of swap spreads and credit spreads is
This article contains both a theoretical and an empirical analysis of the components of interest rate swap spreads defined as the difference between the fixed swap rate and the risk‐free rate of equal maturity. The components are determined by expected LIBOR spreads, default risk, and market structure.
Abstract. At the time of initiation, interest rate swaps are of zero market value to the Selender (1995), and Minton (1997) for the empirical determinants and behavior of swap spreads. others, analyze the effect of credit risk on swap pricing. Currency and interest rate swaps are subject to a complex, two-sided default risk. A. Chen, A. SelenderDetermination of Swap Spreads: An Empirical Analysis. This paper studies firms' usage of interest rate swaps to manage risk in a Several empirical and theoretical studies have examined why firms use swaps, and This is because the default spreads on the swap and on the one-period debt.
This exchange eliminates the exchange rate risk in the contract. The cross-currency swap curve of the local (EM) currency consists of two parts the local interest rate curve and the basis spread curve. This basis spread curve represents ‘compensation’ for differences between local interest rate spreads and FX forward-implied carry.
