Problem Note 51086: Cash flows and instrument values for instruments that use floating rates are incorrect
The cash flows that are generated by SAS® Risk Management for Banking or SAS® Risk Management for Insurance for instruments that use floating rates are incorrect. The calculated values of such instruments are also incorrect. The difference from the correct value is, in most cases, small.
The reason for the difference is that the function RSK_IMPLIED_FWD_RATE calculates the implied forward rate based on continuous rates. This is incorrect, and discrete annual rates should be used instead.
