| Description | Interest Rate Swaps are a typical product to hedge interest rate risks. Especially banks use this kind of derivative instrument to manage their interest rate risk. Up to now, these swaps normally have the character of an OTC derivative. Basel III and EMIR make it more difficult for banks to make such OTC derivatives.The aim of this paper is to explain the basic methods of valuing swaps and show how EMIR and Basel III influence this modulation. |
