Question:
5. A bank borrows funds by issuing CDs that carry a variable rate equal to the yield of the six-month Treasury bill plus 50 bps. The bank gets the chance to invest in a seven-year loan that will pay a fixed rate of 7%. So, the bank wants to engage in an interest rate swap designed to lock in an interest spread of 75 bps. Give the outlines of two possible swaps: one designed to change the asset’s cash flow into a variable rate, and the other designed to change the liability’s cash flow into a fixed rate.
