There is a potential conflict of interest because the client and the adviser hold the same stock, so the client should be given first priority to trade Jabbertalk.C is incorrect because according to Standard V(B)–Communication with Clients and Prospective Clients, Kostecka should have distinguished fact from opinion. In addition, Kostecka should also disclose to clients andprospective clients the basic format and general principles of the investment processes used to analyze investments, select securities, and construct portfolios and must promptly disclose any changes that might materially affect those processes and use reasonable judgment in identifying which factors are important to his investment analyses, recommendations, or actions and include those factors in communications with clients and prospective clients.3、Zhang\'s statement to support using the harmonic mean is best described as:【单选题】A.incorrect with respect to large outliers.B.incorrect with respect to small outliners.C.correct.正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct.

The historical three-year swap spread for Country B was the lowest six months ago. Swap spread is defined as the spread paid by the fixed-rate payer of an interest rate swap over the rate of the “on the run” (most recently issued) government bond security with the same maturity as the swap. The lower (higher) the swap spread, the lower (higher) the return that investors require for credit and/or liquidity risks.The fixed rate of the three-year fixed-for-floating Libor swap was 0.01% six months ago, and the three-year government bond yield was –0.08% six months ago. Thus theswap spread six months ago was 0.01% – (–0.08%) = 0.09%.One month ago, the fixed rate of the three-year fixed-for-floating Libor swap was 0.16%, and the three-year government bond yield was –0.10%. Thus the swap spread one month ago was 0.16% – (–0.10%) = 0.26%.Twelve months ago, the fixed rate of the three-year fixed-for-floating Libor swap was 0.71%, and the three-year government bond yield was –0.07%. Thus, the swap spread 12 months ago was 0.71% – (–0.07%) = 0.78%.8、Using the data in Exhibit 2, the portfolio’s annual 1% parametric VaR is closest to:【单选题】A.CAD 17 million.B.CAD 31 million.C.CAD 48 million.正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct. The VaR is derived as follows:VaR = [(e(rp) – 2.33σp)(–1)](Portfolio value)whereE(Rp) = Annualized daily return = (0.00026 × 250) = 0.065250 = Number of trading days annually2.33 = Number of standard deviations to attain 1% VaR<imgsrc="https:///bkwimg/up/201910/1025 1224ff09b79546919adff44ced35b5d9.png" alt="" width="613" height="50" title="" align="">Portfolio value = CAD260,000,000VaR = –(0.065 – 0.184571) × CAD 260,000,000= CAD31,088,4609、Confabulated’s reported interest income would be lower if the cost was the same but the par value (in € thousands) of:【单选题】A.Bugle was €28,000.B.Cathay was €37,000.C.Dumas was €55,000.正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct. The difference between historical cost and par value must be amortized under the effective interest method. If the par value is less than the initial cost (stated interest rate is greater than the effective rate), the interest income would be lower than the interest received because of amortization of the premium.10、Is his response to Scahill’s question regarding the impact of changes in interest rate volatility on the OAS of callable and putable bonds, Morgan is most likely:【单选题】A.incorrect about callable and putable bonds.B.correct about callable bonds and incorrect about putable bonds.C.correct about putable bonds and incorrect about callablebonds.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct. Morgan’s response to Scahill is incorrect. As interest rate volatility declines, the embedded call option becomes cheaper; thus, the higher the arbitrage-free value (or model value) of the callable bond.Callable bond value = Value of straight bond – Value of call optionA higher value for the callable bond means that a higher spread needs to be added to one-period forward rates to make the arbitrage-free bond value equal to the market price (i.e., the OAS is higher). For putable bonds as interest rate volatility declines, the value of the put option declines as does the arbitrage-free value of the putable bond.Putable bond value = Value of straight bond + Value of put optionThis implies that a lower spread needs to be added to one-period forward rates to make the arbitrage free bond value equal to the market price. Thus, in this instance, the OAS is lower.B is incorrect. Morgan is correct about the impact on OAS for callable bonds.C is incorrect. Morgan is correct about the impact on OAS for putable bonds.。

cfa三级原版书课后题一、关于CFA三级原版书课后题的整体情况哎呀,咱们来看看这CFA三级原版书课后题哈。
这就像是咱们在探索一个神秘的宝藏,每一道题都是宝藏里的一颗小宝石呢。
这课后题啊,对咱们理解CFA 三级的知识那可是相当重要的,就像是盖房子的砖头一样,一块都不能少。
二、开始制作课后题试卷1. 第一题:金融市场分析(10分)题目:请简述金融市场的主要构成部分及其相互关系。
答案:金融市场主要由货币市场、资本市场、外汇市场、衍生品市场等构成。
货币市场是短期资金融通的市场,为资本市场等提供流动性支持。
资本市场是长期资金融通的市场,企业可以通过资本市场筹集长期资金用于扩大生产等。
外汇市场主要进行不同货币之间的兑换和交易,与国际贸易和国际投资密切相关。
衍生品市场则是基于基础资产(如股票、债券、外汇等)衍生出的金融产品的交易市场,它可以用于风险管理等。
相互关系上,各个市场相互影响,例如外汇市场的波动会影响国际贸易企业在资本市场的融资成本等。
2. 第二题:投资组合管理(10分)题目:在构建投资组合时,如何考虑风险与收益的平衡?答案:在构建投资组合时,首先要对不同资产的预期收益进行评估,比如股票可能有较高的预期收益但风险也高,债券收益相对稳定风险较低。
然后,根据投资者的风险承受能力,确定不同资产的配置比例。
如果是风险承受能力低的投资者,可能会加大债券的配置比例。
同时,要考虑资产之间的相关性,例如将负相关的资产组合在一起,可以降低整体风险。
3. 第三题:财务报表分析(10分)题目:如何从现金流量表中判断一家公司的财务健康状况?答案:从现金流量表中,可以看经营活动现金流量。
如果经营活动现金流量持续为正且不断增长,说明公司的主营业务造血能力强。
投资活动现金流量,如果是负数,可能是公司在扩大投资,这在一定阶段是正常的,但如果长期大额负数且没有合理的投资回报预期,可能有风险。
筹资活动现金流量,若是正数,可能是公司在筹集资金,若是负数可能是在偿还债务等。
