In examining the put-call parity for coupon instruments and the implications of the analysis of that relationship, put-call parity is discussed in the absence of coupons; then, the relationship between at-the-money puts and calls depends upon the current yield on the security vis-à-vis the short-term interest rate. 2, record 1, English, - put%2Dcall%20parity

La symétrie entre l’option de vente et l’option d’achat veut que leurs valeurs respectives soient reliées de façon précise. Cette contingence mutuelle est généralement appelée «parité de l’option de vente et de l’option d’achat». 3, record 1, French, - parit%C3%A9%20des%20options%20de%20vente%20et%20d%27achat
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La parité entre le cours d’une option de vente et celui d’une option d’achat découle de la symétrie entre les deux types d’option. Selon ce concept, le détenteur d’une option de vente et du sous-jacent sur lequel porte l'option obtiendra le même résultat que le détenteur d’une option d’achat portant sur le même sous-jacent et ayant le même prix d’exercice et la même échéance. On suppose alors que le prix d’exercice non encore déboursé par le détenteur de l'option d’achat rapporte le taux de rendement hors risque. 1, record 1, French, - parit%C3%A9%20des%20options%20de%20vente%20et%20d%27achat

The risk-free rate does not technically exist, since even the safest investments carry a very small amount of risk. Thus, investors commonly use the interest rate on a three-month U.S. Treasury bill as a proxy for the risk-free rate, since short-term government-issued securities have virtually zero risk of default. 3, record 3, English, - risk%2Dfree%20rate

Ainsi, le taux de rendement des bons du Trésor est souvent considéré comme un taux hors risque étant donné qu'il s’agit de titres d’emprunt émis par l'État dont le terme est suffisamment court pour minimiser les risques d’inflation et de fluctuation des taux d’intérêt du marché. 3, record 3, French, - taux%20sans%20risque

A measurement of interest rate risk exposure based on price risk and reinvestment risk. 2, record 4, English, - duration
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Price risk is the chance that interest rates will rise, reducing the market value of an investment; reinvestment risk is the chance that interest rates will fall, so that cash flows from the original instrument can only be reinvested at a lower rate than they had been earning. Obviously, price risk and reinvestment risk move in opposite directions. The decline in the price of a bond in relation to a change in interest rates can be tied directly to the duration of the bond. 2, record 4, English, - duration

La duration permet d’évaluer à quel point le coût d’un élément d’actif, de passif ou hors bilan est sensible aux fluctuations mineures des taux d’intérêt en indiquant par un simple chiffre le niveau d’exposition de l'institution au risque de taux. Cette valeur numérique correspond à la durée moyenne jusqu'à l'échéance des mouvements de trésorerie. 3, record 4, French, - duration
