![Page 1: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/1.jpg)
Swaps
• Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type• Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic
currency denominated but involving different loan structures, fixed vs. floating rate loans
• Plain deal foreign currency swap – same loan structure, fixed interest rate, but different currencies.
![Page 2: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Interest Rate Swap
• Swap interpretation: investing in one type and financing in another type
• Types = fixed versus floating rate
• Coy. B, due to higher credit rating, has an absolute advantage in both types
![Page 3: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Plain Vanilla Interest Rate Swap
• Coy. B has comparative advantage in fixed rate, interest advantage is greater
• Coy. A has comparative advantage in floating rate!!, interest disadvantage is less
• Coys. A and B, each has a comparative advantage in the type of loan each does not desire
• Preconditions of a viable swap

Interest Rate Swap
• Page 2 depicts a specific swap
• Other swaps are possible: triangular region specified by the 3 inequalities on page 3
• On border of triangle, one party does not gain; on vertex, two parties do not gain
• Gain = 65 basis points for all swaps

FX Swap
• Canuck Avions de Ligne, Ltée Case• Comparative advantage requirement for a
viable swap is satisfied• CAL has comparative advantage in real,
Garota has comparative advantage in C$• But CAL wants C$, Garota wants reais • Add FX swap to financing in one currency;
result: financing in the other currency

FX Swap
• Interpretation: A portfolio (5-pack) of forward contracts with different maturities
• CAL buys real forward to hedge real loan• Garota buys C$ forward to hedge C$ loan• Implied forward rate common to all 5
maturities is BR7.824/C$ vs. spot rate of BR7.366/C$, qualitatively consistent with IRP.

FX Swap Effects
• Garota obtains real financing at its prespecified required rate of 15%, this built into swap cash flow calculations
• CAL obtains C$ financing at 9.61%, calculated using the Excel’s IRR function
• CAL reduces its C$ financing cost by 89 basis points

Viñas de Valdivia, SA
• Determine the reference currency (Chilean peso) cost of financing in another currency (U$) via ex-post Uncovered Interest Parity
• Technique applies only to pure discount loan arrangement
• UIP: (1+ KU$) = (1+10%)(1+a) where KU$ is the Chilean peso cost of U$ financing and a is the annual appreciation of U$
![Page 9: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Viñas de Valdivia, SA
• Construct sensitivity analysis graph: gauge sensitivity of Chilean peso cost to a
• Breakeven value of a is 36.36%, where the peso costs are equalized
• At projected a, peso debt is cheaper
• Better to borrow at 50% than at 10%!!!!
• 10% in U$’s is 65% in Chilean pesos.

Bling-Bling Corporation
• Must use IRR function, cannot use ex-post Uncovered Interest Parity, since loan not pure discount arrangement
• Complication: issue costs
• Issue cost % applies to the gross financing
• Gross-up the net financing
![Page 11: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Bling-Bling Corporation
• Yen cash flows must be forward hedged
• FX loan: sell loan proceeds at Bid, buy debt service at Ask
• Criterion: Minimize cost of financing in the reference currency (U$)
• Technique: determine vector of U$ cash flows, then apply IRR function
![Page 12: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Hedging FX financing cash flows
• Canuck Avions case: one swap.• Bling-Bling case: five forward contracts• Bling-Bling must buy JY288,659,794
forward for years 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and JY7,216,494,880 for year 5.
• Valid comparison of reference currency vs. FX financing requires that the latter be fully hedged
![Page 13: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Principal Repayment Arrangements
• 0. Zero-Coupon-type: only 1 debt service date.• 1. Bond-type: pay only interest; at maturity repay entire
principal.• 2. Mortgage-type: fully amortized with equal annual debt
service (blend of interest and principal repayment).• 3. Type-3: Principal repaid in equal annual installments;
debt service declines during loan life. • Ranked from fastest to slowest pace of principal
repayment: 3, 2, 1, 0. The higher the number, the faster the pace of principal repayment.
![Page 14: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Equal annual repayment of principal (type 3 loan)
• Borrow $1 at 10% over two years.
• Principal repayment = 0.5 per year.
• Interest payments: year1 = $1 x 10% = .1; year2 = $.5 x 10% = .05
• Debt service: year1 = .5 + .1 = .6; year2 = .5 + .05 = .55
• Cash flows: 1; -.6; -.55. IRR = 10%
![Page 15: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Pure discount or zero coupon loan
• Net = $100, F = 5%, interest rate = 10%, maturity = 3 years, Gross = $100 / (1-.05) = $105.26
• Debt service occurs at only one point in time, end of year 3 (loan’s maturity)
• Debt service = 105.26(1.1)^3 =140.10• Initial financing reflects Net • Debt service reflects Gross• Cash flows: 100, 0, 0, -140.10• All-in Cost = 11.9%
![Page 17: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Effect of up-front fee on pace of principal repayment to minimize all-in cost
• Borrow $1 over 2 years: 10% interest rate, 5% up-front fee
• Grossed-up principal = 1.05263 = 1/(1-.05)
• Mortgage-type loan: 1; -0.6065; -0.6065 implies cost = 13.9%
• Pure-discount bond: 1; 0 ; -1.27368 implies cost = 12.86%
• Choose slow pace of principal repayment to amortize up-front loan processing fee over longer effective time horizon (or bond duration).
• The faster the pace of principal repayment (other things equal), the higher the all-in cost.
![Page 18: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
No interest loan! (but loan processing fee charged)
• F=5%: need Net=$100, Gross= $105.26• If pay @ end year 1: Cost = 5.26% since
cash flows are 100, -105.26• If pay @ end year 2: Cost = 2.6% since
cash flows are 100, 0, -105.26• Moral of the story: If incur up-front loan
processing fee, choose longest maturity possible.

Financing in FX and incur up-front processing fee
• If FX is projected to depreciate or exhibits a forward discount, repay principal slowly, other things equal. Unambiguous: Go slooow bro!
• If FX is projected to appreciate or exhibits a forward premium, the two loan facets have contradictory effects. Ambiguous: Dunno bro!
• Two loan facets: financing in an FX and incur processing fee up-front.
![Page 21: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Covered/Uncovered Interest Parity: Implications
• High interest rate currency trades at a forward discount and will depreciate.
• Low interest rate currency trades at a forward premium and will appreciate.
• The two effects work at cross purposes: one raises, the other lowers the cost of financing in the reference currency.
• Implication: Apply Excel’s IRR function!
![Page 22: Swaps Add a swap to a loan to change loan’s type Plain vanilla interest rate swap – domestic currency denominated but involving different loan structures,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca5ed1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Dubious Rules of Thumb
• Definitions: soft currency, likely to depreciate; hard currency, likely to appreciate.
• Always finance in a soft currency. Problem: such a currency exhibits high interest rate.
• Always finance in a low interest currency. Problem: such a currency will likely appreciate. Low interest currencies are hard.

Attaching FX Derivatives
• An arbitrage play: firm seeking financing must be able to sell the FX derivative at a higher price than that at which it buys the same FX derivative
• Financial institutions must face regulatory restrictions which preclude them from direct purchase of the FX derivative
• Dual currency or currency option bonds circumvent restrictions
