Judging interest rates and pricing financial instruments can challenge even the savviest professional, but determining how to adequately price risk that extends 50 years and beyond is a real conundrum. In some cases, the benchmark 30-year US Treasury bond may be insufficient. Economists Jens H.E. Christensen, Jose A. Lopez and Paul L. Mussche contend that insurers, traders and bankers can gauge interest rate risk beyond 30-year timelines through “extrapolation.” getAbstract suggests this complex yet illuminating report to insurance professionals and financial experts interested in the pricing dynamics of interest rates.
