Excercise Price

Mmonirujjaman9y ago
Dear Sir, Can you please describe me, how i will determine the exercise price in INTEREST RISK MANAGEMENT in option. Thanks

There is no 'best' exercise price. If you are borrowing then you want to set a interest rate cap. You can get lower caps by choosing a higher exercise price, but the premium cost will be greater (and, of course, the premium will be 'wasted' if the option does not end up being exercised). In the exam, if it is not specified which exercise price to use, then ideally you will show what happens for all of the exercise prices available in the question. Have you watched my free lectures on interest rate options?
