    F company have a surplus of $ 1 m from 1 st may for 3 month which will need to be deposited to earn additional interest. The manger has seen the inverted interest rate yield curve in the financial press so is considering using a 3 v6 fra quoted at 5%- 5.6% to hedge the interest rate risk exposure ?

    What is the payment /receipt payable on the fra if the reference interest rate move to 5.5% om the 1 st of may?

    I dont understand fra quoted 5%- 5.6% which rate i will use for deposit

    Always, the lower rate is the rate the bank pays on deposits, and the higher rate is the rate they charge on borrowings. (The difference is because the bank makes a profit – they charge more when they lend money than they pay on deposits)
