4 Introduction to the Inflation Market & Instruments Inflation An increase in the economy s price level is known as inflation. Inflation reduces the purchasing power, i.e. the value of money decrease. A consumer price index (CPI) is the price of a particular basket consisting of consumer goods and services. The price index is a measure of the general price level in the economy. Inflation is typically measured as the percentage rate at which the consumer price index changes over a certain period of time. Negative inflation is known as deflation. M. Hinnerich (Aarhus University) Inflation-indexed Swaps and Swaptions April / 36

5 Introduction to the Inflation Market & Instruments Inflation Protected Bonds Many names: Inflation-indexed bonds, Inflation linked bonds, Real bonds, TIPS (US), Index-linked gilts (UK). The payoff is linked to a price index. (CPI, RPI) Typically coupon bonds. Can be floored. The issuer of an inflation protected bond has an incentive to keep inflation low. Useful for governments. These bonds are typically issued by Treasuries. Typical investors are pension funds, mutual funds. World wide outstanding nominal amount 2007: 1000 billion dollar. M.

12 Foreign-Exchange Analogy Price and Payoff I(t) : p n (t, T) : p IP (t, T) : An arbitrary stochastic process Price in dollar at t of a contract that pays out 1 dollar at T. Price in dollar at t of a contract that pays out I(T ) dollar at T. Assume : There exist a market for p n (t, T ) and p IP (t, T ) for all T Define : p r (t, T ) = pip (t,t ) I(t) M.

13 Foreign-Exchange Analogy If I(t) is the price of a hamburger A nominal bond: Pays out 1 dollar at maturity. p n (t, T ): the price of a nominal bond is in dollar A hamburger-indexed bond: At maturity it pays out a dollar amount that is enough to buy 1 hamburger. p IP (t, T ): the price of a hamburger-inflation protected bond is in dollar A hamburger-real bond: Pays out 1 hamburger at maturity p r (t, T ): the price of a real bond is in hamburgers Note: CPI M.

14 Foreign-Exchange Analogy Define Forward rates: f i (t, T ) = ln pi (t,t ) T for i = r, n. Short rates: r i (t) = f i (t, t) for i = r, n. Money Market Accounts: B i (t) = e t 0 ri (s)ds for i = r, n. M. Hinnerich (Aarhus University) Inflation-indexed Swaps and Swaptions April / 36

24 Pricing & Hedging of Inflation Swaps Tool Let M(t) and N(t) be two martingales so that E t [M T ] = M t E t [N T ] = N t The key to price this swap is to find: Solution: E t [M T N T ] If M(t) and N(t) are independent, then E t [M T N T ] = M t N t What if they are NOT independent? E t [M T N T ] = M t N t G T t where G T t is the convexity correction. M. Hinnerich (Aarhus University) Inflation-indexed Swaps and Swaptions April / 36

25 Pricing & Hedging of Inflation Swaps Basic Result Let M(t) and N(t) be two martingales with dynamics: dm t = σt M dw t + δt M (v) µ(dt, dv) M t dn t N t = σ N t dw t + V V δ N t (v) µ(dt, dv) Assume that σ M, σ N, δ M, δ N, λ are deterministic. Then E t [M T N T ] = M t N t G T t where G T t = e T t (σu M σu N + V δm u (v)δu N (v)λ u(dv))du M. Hinnerich (Aarhus University) Inflation-indexed Swaps and Swaptions April / 36
