    Hi,

    I need help with Q2 from section A, specimen exam. the formula for forward rate is:
    spot rate x (1+int rate foreign country)/(1+int rate in base country).

    Why do the ad the last bit at the power of 0.5? I know the formula is for fwd rate in 1 year time and the answer should be in 6 months time. However, I don’t understand…..

    Many thanks,
    Gabi

    Power of 0.5 is 6 months like power of 1 is 12 months.
