In examining the currency markets, Birol is concerned that local currency dealers are being taken advantage of by arbitrageurs from Europe. He analyzes the rate quotes in Exhibit 2 for evidence of triangular arbitrage and carry trade opportunities by European hedge funds attempting to exploit the DNR currency.

Exhibit 2 Interbank and Dealer Currency Quotes and Rates

CFA二级

Based on the exchange rate quotes in Exhibit 2, an opportunistic European hedge fund interested in triangular arbitrage between the dealer and interbank markets is most likely to:

A. discover that no triangular arbitrage opportunity exists.

B. buy EUR in the interbank market and sell EUR to the Daltonian dealer.

C. buy EUR from the Daltonian dealer and sell EUR in the interbank market.

【答案】B

【解析】该题考查三角套汇的知识点。

Bid: 1.205(DRN/USD) ×(1/0.8065) (USD/EUR) = 1.4942 (DRN/EUR)

Offer: 1.210 (DRN/USD) ×(1/0.8045)(USD/EUR) = 1.504 (DNR/EUR)

Interbank的报价小于dealer,通过在Interbank买EUR卖DRN,在dealer处卖EUR买DRN,进行套利。

A错误,因为存在套利机会;

B描述的是正确的套利流程;

C错误,流程和三角套汇相反。

结论:一货币对dealer的买价必须比银行间市场implied cross rate卖价低,dealer的卖价必须比银行间市场implied cross rate买价高。否则,就存在三角套利的机会。

Marking To Market Value为远期合约头寸按照当前市场价格平仓后,盈利或者亏损的金额。


(1)到期时(t=T),远期合约约定的执行价格是F,和T时刻市场上的真实汇率ST进行比价。对于long方,标的资产(考查货币)价格上升,long方赚钱。

(2)到期前(t时刻),盯市的价值是在t时刻结束合约,赚或亏的金额。

(3)计算

思路:签订反响合约合约,计算净收益。

第1步:t时刻签订反向合约平掉原合约头寸,计算到期(T时刻)赚或亏的金额。

第2步:*步计算结果折现回t时刻。
