conducted in 5y, 10y

TIPS, Real Rates and Inflation

TIPS provide a real TIPS provide exposure to real interest rates rather than inflation
rate of return. To
express a view in
inflation, one can
Coupons and Redemption amount grow at the inflation rate. However, these are discounted at
trade the spread the nominal rate to determine the Present Value. Accordingly, the market values of TIPS are a
between TIPS and
nominal treasuries function of both future inflation expectations and nominal rates

Breakeven trades can isolate the exposure to expected inflation

TIPS Breakeven = Long TIPS bond + Short Treasury of similar maturity

Inflation Swaps

Inflation swaps are Inflation swaps offer a mechanism to trade inflation over a given time horizon

Inflation Products: Inflation Swap Example

Client asked DB to quote a price to buy a 5-year inflation swap

Agrees on a fixed rate of 2% (“Swap Breakeven Rate”)

Client will “break even” if inflation turns out to be 2% per annum over the 5-years; Accordingly,
will lose money if inflation is less than 2% and make money if inflation exceeds 2%

If actual inflation over the 5 years turns out to be 3% per annum, the client be paid the

Product : TIPS on Asset Swap
Example: How to make almost risk-less money

Buy $100m Notional of TIPS maturing in January 2014 i.e. $130mm Dirty Price

Fund the $130mm on overnight repo (current rate 0.06%, say)

Swap out all the TIPS cash-flows in exchange for 3mL-0.07% coupons + $130mm on
Maturity Date (current 3m Libor rate is 0.29%)

Accordingly, asset swap will pay back the full $130mm on maturity date

3m Libor is almost always higher than repo rates


(as it should be given it is an uncollateralized rate)

Accordingly, assuming no change in the spread between Libor and Repo rates,
earn carry of 0.29%-0.07% - 0.06% = 0.16% per annum on $130mm

Total Return Swaps

– Allows clients to go long or short cash instruments in an unfunded form

– E.g. 1: Return of the 10+ year TIPS index vs Libor +/- Spread

– E.g. 2: Return of Overall TIPS Breakeven Index vs Libor +/- Spread

Inflation-linked Notes

– Creation of a customized note issued by DB or a Third Party

– E.g. 1: Provide coupons of Annual Inflation + 1.50%

Understanding Inflation Options
Two key concepts

1) Inflation Options are either

CAPS i.e. Calls

or

FLOORS i.e. Puts (strikes can be negative)

2) Inflation Options are either

YEAR-on-YEAR (YoY) References Annual Inflation

or

ZERO COUPON (ZC) References CPI (cumulative inflation)

Building a CPI Curve

Building the CPI Curve
Process

Given market quotes for the zero coupon inflation-swap rates or TIPS breakevens it is possible
to build a forward CPI curve

Constructing a complete forward curve involves

(a) extracting future fixings from quoted ZCIS rates

(b) interpolating the available points to obtain the inflation trend

(c) adding the CPI seasonality

1. For the quoted tenors the future fixings can be obtained using:
Implied Ref CPI t+tenor = Ref CPI t x (1+ ZCIS rate) tenor 240

220
2. Interpolation between quoted ZCIS rates can be Projected CPI Trend

Option Pricing Models

Black’s Model: Treat Inflation Index as Log-normally Distributed

Bachelier Model: Treat Inflation Rate as Normally Distributed

Shifted Log-normal Model: Inflation Rate cannot go below -100%

In Practice

Intraday calculations for vanilla Inflation Options


e.g. TIPS Redemption Floors

Different volatilities by Term and Strike based on calibrations to market trading levels

35
SABR Model *
Incorporates Stochastic Volatility. SABR: Stochastic Alpha Beta Rho

Allows better fitting of Volatility Skews/Smiles

Process:

Alpha is the (log-normal) volatility of volatility - influences the Volatility Smile

Beta is the sensitivity of the change in forward to the level of the forward – influences the
Volatility Skew (e.g. normal vs. log-normal)

Rho is the correlation between the two processes i.e. the correlation between change in
Forward Level and change in Volatility – also influences the Volatility Skew

Generally, Beta is fixed based on historical experience, and Rho is calibrated

In Practice

Pricing of all vanilla inflation options, including daily mark-to-market of vanilla option books

Much quicker and more stable than JY Monte Carlo Model, but cannot value exotics
