Repo Duration overnight, versus

yuoska

Would a 2 year, renewable REPO have a 0 duration? versus just an overnight which is 0?

yeah. i guess so. basically, it has duration between resets (and they approximate this by saying half the coupon period).

good call.

depends on how ofren the rate resets ............according to the cfai a floating rate bond has duration of 1/2 coupon period..............so semiannual would have duration of .25
