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作者: Chuckrox 时间: 2011-7-11 19:10
yeah. i guess so. basically, it has duration between resets (and they approximate this by saying half the coupon period).
