Hedged Position Construction Net Asset Value is a function of interest rate level and interest rate volatility. NAV ( r, σ ) Δ NAV NAV ( r, σ ) NAV ( r, σ ) = Δ r + Δ σ r σ NAV ( r, σ ) NAV ( r, σ ) NAV ( r, σ ) + ( ( Δ r ) + ( Δ rδ σ ) + ( Δ σ ) ) r r σ σ Net Asset Value will be unresponsive to changes in interest rate and volatility if the asset portfolio hedges liabilities.
