题目
A 10-year bond was issued four years ago. The bond is denominated in US dollars, offers a coupon rate of 10% with interest paid semi-annually, and is currently priced at 102% of par. The bond’s:
选项
A.tenor is six years.
B.nominal rate is 5%.
C.redemption value is 102% of the par value.
答案
A
解析
: A is correct. The tenor of the bond is the time remaining until the bond’s maturity date. Although the bond had a maturity of 10 years at issuance (original maturity), it was issued four years ago. Thus, there are six years remaining until the maturity date. : A是正确的。债券的期限是债券到期日之前的剩余时间。虽然该债券在发行时的到期日为10年(原始到期日),但它是4年前发行的。因此,到期日还有六年。
