2008 L3 Sample Exam V2 Q11 范晕 Case MBS Hedge Interest Rate Volatility Strat

 范晕(Yun Fan) US fixed income asset manager, the portfolio invests in Ts, noncallable corporate bonds and MBS (mortgage backed security).

范晕说:mortgage securities have significant exposure to volatility risks. Our expectation is that the current implied interest rate volatility will exceed future realized interest rate volatility. Therefore it should be appropriate to manage volatility risk by hedging dynamically or  by using options.

Question:Given the current implied interest rate volatility will exceed future realized interest rate volatility (as in the statement), Fan's most appropriate action following a decline in interest rate would be to :

Answer: purchase futures.

教材上相关内容在 v4 p172. 并没有展开说明。哪位fixed income高手指点一二。谢谢!对这道题我真的很犯晕。

 多谢大家!对这道题,我觉得Julia MM 说的有道理。

TOM 说的对。老题参考价值有限。

时间不多了,我决定放弃追求真理了。把重要的再过一遍,CFAI, 请少出怪题啊今年。
