Advanced Bonds Master: In-depth Interest Rate & Market Analysis

The Goal of This Course:

Bonds are more than just a means of receiving interest; they are like the massive gravity of the global financial system. Mathematically understand the subtle movements of bond prices in response to interest rate changes and learn to read the economic fluctuations predicted by the yield curve.

  • Advanced Mathematical Models: Precisely measure interest rate risk through duration and convexity.
  • Yield Curve Analysis: Analyze signals of recession and recovery suggested by the spread between long-term and short-term interest rates.
  • Diverse Bond Types: Understand the structures of specialized bonds such as high-yield, convertible bonds (CB), and bonds with warrants (BW).

Learning Curriculum Preview:

  1. Bond Pricing and Yields: In-depth exploration of time value and the inverse relationship with interest rates.
  2. Duration and Convexity: Measuring price sensitivity to interest rate changes.
  3. Yield Curve Analysis: Key indicators for economic judgment and basics of curve trading.
  4. Credit Analysis and Spreads: Evaluating default risk and high-yield bond investment.
  5. Specialized Bonds and Structured Products: Understanding and utilizing hybrid securities.
