floatbybk - Price floating-rate note from Black-Karasinski interest-rate tree

Syntax

[Price, PriceTree] = floatbybk(BKTree, Spread,
Settle, Maturity, Reset, Basis, Principal, Options,
EndMonthRule)

Arguments

BKTree

Interest-rate tree structure created by bktree.

Spread

Number of instruments (NINST)-by-1 vector of number of basis points over the reference rate.

Settle

Settlement dates. NINST-by-1 vector of dates representing the settlement dates of the floating-rate note.

Maturity

NINST-by-1 vector of dates representing the maturity dates of the floating-rate note.

Reset

(Optional) NINST-by-1 vector representing the frequency of payments per year. Default = 1.

Basis

(Optional) Day-count basis of the instrument. A vector of integers.

  • 0 = actual/actual (default)

  • 1 = 30/360 (SIA)

  • 2 = actual/360

  • 3 = actual/365

  • 4 = 30/360 (PSA)

  • 5 = 30/360 (ISDA)

  • 6 = 30/360 (European)

  • 7 = actual/365 (Japanese)

  • 8 = actual/actual (ISMA)

  • 9 = actual/360 (ISMA)

  • 10 = actual/365 (ISMA)

  • 11 = 30/360E (ISMA)

  • 12 = actual/365 (ISDA)

  • 13 = BUS/252

Principal

(Optional) NINST-by-1 vector of the notional principal amount. Default = 100.

Options

(Optional) Derivatives pricing options structure created with derivset.

EndMonthRule

(Optional) NINST-by-1 vector representing the End-of-month rule. Default = 1.

Description

[Price, PriceTree] = floatbybk(BKTree, Spread, Settle, Maturity, Reset, Basis, Principal, Options,EndMonthRule) computes the price of a floating-rate note from a Black-Karasinski tree.

Price is an NINST-by-1 vector of expected prices of the floating-rate note at time 0.

PriceTree is a structure of trees containing vectors of instrument prices and accrued interest, and a vector of observation times for each node.

PriceTree.PTree contains the clean prices.

PriceTree.AITree contains the accrued interest.

PriceTree.tObs contains the observation times.

The Settle date for every floating-rate note is set to the ValuationDate of the BK tree. The floating-rate note argument Settle is ignored.

Examples

Price a 20 basis point floating-rate note using a Black-Karasinski interest-rate tree.

Load the file deriv.mat, which provides BKTree. The BKTree structure contains the time and interest-rate information needed to price the note.

load deriv.mat; 

Set the required values. Other arguments will use defaults.

Spread = 20;
Settle = '01-Jan-2005';
Maturity = '01-Jan-2006';

Use floatbybk to compute the price of the note.

Price = floatbybk(BKTree, Spread, Settle, Maturity)

Price =

  100.3825
