Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines the convexity bias, caused by the non-linearity of payoffs, in the pricing of interest rate swaps off the Eurocurrency futures curve. The evidence from 4 major currencies (U.S. dollar USD, U.K. Pound GBP, German DM DEM and Japanese Yen) during 1987-1996 suggests that swaps were initially being priced off the futures curve. Subsequently, the market swap rates drifted below the rates implied by futures prices. |
