The opposite of the elasticity of a bond price with respect to yield to maturity is called the “modified duration” of the bond.Modified duration cannot be used to quantify interest rate risk in a fixed income portfolio. One minor problem is that it doesn’t aggregate, you’re better off using the derivative of bond price with respect to yield because you can add those up. With modified duration you’d have to take the sum weighted by market value and that doesn’t work for derivative securities.One major problem is modified duration only tells you the relation of price volatility to yield volatility, and only for small yield moves. So it ignores credit, funding, liquidity, volatility, optionality and other risks; and even for price risk it only gives you a conversion factor for translating yield risk to price risk, not an absolute measure of risk.The other major problem is that you’re taking the derivative of the price of each security on its own yield. You’re answering the question, “What will happen to the price of my portfolio if all yields to maturity move by the same amount?” But that’s not a realistic scenario, and it can miss most of the risk.If your portfolio consists only of long position in bonds of similar credit quality and maturity, then portfolio modified duration captures most of the first order price volatility. But for general fixed-income portfolios, most of the price risk can arise from yields changing relative to one another.For example, consider a portfolio that buys one ten-year bond and shorts enough one-year bonds (say 8, but the exact number depends on interest rates) such that the net modified duration is zero. That is by no means a riskless portfolio.There are several approaches for quantifying risk in a fixed-income portfolio depending on the type of portfolio. You can model interest rate moves explicitly and include terms for other risks. One simple model is to decompose the yield curve into principle components and estimate the volatility of each component and the portfolio’s exposure to it. Or you can bootstrap a forward volatility surface.

Work done by 1st person = 100 forms per hourWork done by 2nd person = 90 forms per hourSo, total work in 1 hour would be = 190 forms per hourWork done in 5hours = 190* 5 = 950Now, remaining work is only 50 formsIn 1 hour or 60minutes, 190 forms are filled and 50 forms will be filled in = 60/190 * 50 = 15.7minutes or 16minutes (approximaty)Total time = 5hours 16minutes

Annual compounding: Interest is calculated and paid once a year. Quarterly compounding: Interest is calculated and paid once every three months. Monthly compounding: Interest is calculated and paid each month.

You will earn 0.35% AER/Gross p.a. (variable) on your entire account balance. This is a notional rate used for interest bearing accounts, which illustrates the interest rate if paid and compounded each year.

What interest do you get on a Nat West Current Account? The only current accounts you'll get interest on are the Adapt account (1% AER) and the Reward Black (interest varies between 0.1% AER and 0.5% AER depending on how much you've got in the account).

Cash ISA's are simply savings accounts where the interest is paid tax-free. ISA stands for Individual Savings Account. Cash ISA's are classed as tax-free, i.e. the interest payable is exempt from UK income tax. ... You can subscribe to (pay into) one of each type of ISA in a tax year.
