Implementing interest rate swaps in the risk management of a credit institute – a practical analysis
| Resumo: | This Work Project has been developed in the course of an internship done at a credit institute and analyzes hedging strategies based on interest rate swaps that enable isolated management of interest rate risk. It follows a practical approach to test five fair value hedges, which are thought to immunize against different term structure shifts. Additionally, a strategy is devised that hedges interest rate risk in forecasted earnings, which is expressed by an earnings shortfall below certain minimum threshold values in different planning scenarios. |
