getZeroRates

Get zero rates for input dates for IRFunctionCurve

Syntax

F = getZeroRates(CurveObj,InpDates)

F = getZeroRates(___,Name,Value)

Description

F = getZeroRates(CurveObj,InpDates) computes zero rates for input dates for an IRFunctionCurve object.

F = getZeroRates(___,Name,Value) adds optional name-value pair arguments.

Examples

Get Zero Rates For Input Dates For an IRFunctionCurve

This example shows how to get zero rates for input dates for an IRFunctionCurve.

irfc = IRFunctionCurve('Forward',today,@(t) polyval([-0.0001 0.003 0.02],t));
getZeroRates(irfc, today+30:30:today+720)

Input Arguments

CurveObj — Interest-rate curve object

object

Interest-rate curve object, specified by using IRFunctionCurve.

Data Types: object

InpDates — Input dates

vector

Input dates, specified using MATLAB^® date format. The input dates must be after the Settle date of IRFunctionCurve.

Data Types: double

Name-Value Arguments

Specify optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose Name in quotes.

Example: F = getZeroRates(irfc, CurveSettle+30:30:CurveSettle+720)

Compounding — Compounding frequency per-year for zero rates

CurveObj.Compounding (default) | possible values include: –1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.

Compounding frequency per-year for zero rates, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Compounding' and a scalar numeric using one of the supported values:

• −1 = Continuous compounding

• 0 = Simple interest (no compounding)

• 1 = Annual compounding

• 2 = Semiannual compounding

• 3 = Compounding three times per year

• 4 = Quarterly compounding

• 6 = Bimonthly compounding

• 12 = Monthly compounding

Data Types: double

Basis — Day count basis for the zero rates

0 (actual/actual) (default) | integer from 0 to 13

Day count basis for the zero rates, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Basis' and a scalar integer.

• 0 — actual/actual

• 1 — 30/360 (SIA)

• 2 — actual/360

• 3 — actual/365

• 4 — 30/360 (PSA)

• 5 — 30/360 (ISDA)

• 6 — 30/360 (European)

• 7 — actual/365 (Japanese)

• 8 — actual/actual (ICMA)

• 9 — actual/360 (ICMA)

• 10 — actual/365 (ICMA)

• 11 — 30/360E (ICMA)

• 12 — actual/365 (ISDA)

• 13 — BUS/252
