Floating rate bonds

does a floating rate bond have volatility risk?

never mind, volatility risk only applies to option bonds. for some reason i thought of a floating rate bond as a bond that has a bunch of interest rate options, but that would only be the case if there was a cap or a floor.

[Edit]

that gave rise to another question. Wouldnt a bond with a cap or a floor have volatility risk, since options increase in value if there is more volatility?
