Q 73. Lots more information in this question than you need, but they use the 10year bond as the RFR instead of the 3month tbill. Why are they not using the 3month Tbill as the RFR?
.. the 10 year bond would have additional risk premiums built into it for yield curve risk, inflation risk, and sovereign risk, which is in agreement with its yield being 50 bp higher.
Any help appreciated.作者: Siddimaula 时间: 2013-4-3 08:34
I believe the rule of thumb is that when you are dealing with an individual investor, the 3 month Treasury Bill is RFR, however when you are looking at it from the perspective of a corporation or for capital budgeting purposes, then you look at the 10 year treasury bond as the RFR.
I don’t get the logic either. A 10 year bond is hardly what I would call Risk Free considering it’s subject to purchasing power risk, interest rate risk, reinvestment risk, political and legislative risk etc etc etc.作者: Maddin 时间: 2013-4-3 08:39
