Templates

template Instrument

This template models an asset swap. It pays an asset performance vs a fix interest rate at the end of every payment period. It can be used to model equity swaps, some types of commodity swaps (of the form performance vs rate) and swaps with the same payoff on other asset types. The asset leg is described by an observable containing either unadjusted or adjusted fixings (for a price return or a total return swap, respectively). The template calculates the performance for each payment period using this observable. For example: AAPL total return vs 2.5% fix.
