    Hi John,

    Are we expected to perform calculations on Currency Futures, Currency swaps and Currency options either in MCQs or structured questions??

    Also, in the lecture notes, it’s mentioned that we can not be asked for any calculations on interest rate futures. Is this also applicable for interest rate swaps and options??

    Kindly clarify on same although I think that they may be testable as part of theory questions.

    Regards
    Yaaseen

    If you have watched the lectures you will have heard me say that there cannot be calculations on futures, options, or swaps (only at P4).
    However there can certainly be written questions, which is why I go through simple examples to explain how they work.

    (I hope you are not reading the notes without the lectures because that would be pointless)
