Price Year-on-Year Inflation-Indexed Swap Instrument Using inflationcurve and Inflation Pricer and Compute Cash Flows

This example shows the workflow to price a YearYearInflationSwap instrument when you use an inflationcurve object and an Inflation pricing method. Then use inflationCashflows to compute the cash flows for the YearYearInflationSwap instrument.

Create ratecurve Object

Create a ratecurve object using ratecurve.

Settle = datetime(2021,1,15);
Type = "zero";
ZeroTimes = [calmonths(6) calyears([1 2 3 4 5 7 10 20 30])]';

Input Arguments

inpInstrumentObject — Instrument object

YearYearInflationSwap object

Instrument object, specified using a previously created instrument object for a YearYearInflationSwap.

Note

If the inpInstrumentObject is a vector of instruments, you must use inflationCashflows separately with each instrument.

Data Types: object

Settle — Settlement date for instrument cash flow

datetime scalar | string scalar | date character vector

Settlement date for instrument cash flow, specified as a scalar datetime, string, or date character vector.

Note

The Settle date you specify must be before the Maturity date for the YearYearInflationSwap instrument.

To support existing code, inflationCashflows also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

inpInflationCurve — Inflation curve

inflationcurve object

Inflation curve, specified using a previously created inflation curve object using inflationcurve.

Data Types: object

Output Arguments

outCF — Output cash flow

timetable

Output cash flow, returned as a timetable.

Version History

Introduced in R2021a

R2022b: Serial date numbers not recommended

Although inflationCashflows supports serial date numbers, datetime values are recommended instead. The datetime data type provides flexible date and time formats, storage out to nanosecond precision, and properties to account for time zones and daylight saving time.

To convert serial date numbers or text to datetime values, use the datetime function. For example:

t = datetime(738427.656845093,"ConvertFrom","datenum");
y = year(t)

y =

        2021

There are no plans to remove support for serial date number inputs.
