SENSITIVITY TO MARKET RISK Section 7.1<br />

If we assume interest rates increase 100 bps, the<br />

approximate price change due to effective duration is the<br />

following:<br />

Percentage<br />

Price Change = -Effective Duration x Yield<br />

Change<br />

Percentage Change<br />

in Price = -1.64 x .01 = -1.64%<br />

The<br />

approximate price change due to effective convexity is<br />

the following:<br />

½ x Effective Convexity x (Yield Change)²<br />

½ x -23.83 x (0.01)² x 100 = -0.12%<br />

Thus<br />

this bond’s price would be expected to decrease by<br />

about 1.76% given a 100 bps rise in rates:<br />

Effective<br />

Duration = -1.64%<br />

Effective Convexity = -0.12%<br />

-1.76%<br />
