Par yield curve, Bootstrapping and everything in between
I understand the bits and pieces but I'm having a difficult time getting a solid conceptual idea of the bootstrapping process.
I understand that bootstrapping is necessary in the valuation of fixed income securities because we have to utilize a discount rate in the same time dimension as the cash flow. I did quantitative examples to compute theoretical spot rates and I've had no problem there. But that's only b/c I'm following a process, I'm missing the logic. Separately, I get what the Par Yield Curve and the process of interpolation. But how exactly does the Par Yield Curve and interpolation come into play in the bootstrapping process? Do they even?
I've been doing all the internet search I can and my mind just keeps going in circles. If anyone can just set everything into place Id really appreciate it! |
