Detailed Description

Base bond class.

Derived classes must fill the uninitialized data members.

Warning:
Most methods assume that the cash flows are stored sorted by date, the redemption(s) being after any cash flow at the same date. In particular, if there's one single redemption, it must be the last cash flow,
Tests:
  • price/yield calculations are cross-checked for consistency.
  • price/yield calculations are checked against known good values.
Examples
FittedBondCurve.cpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Bond() [1/2]

Bond ( Natural  settlementDays,
const Calendar calendar,
const Date issueDate = Date(),
const Leg coupons = Leg() 
)

constructor for amortizing or non-amortizing bonds.

Redemptions and maturity are calculated from the coupon data, if available. Therefore, redemptions must not be included in the passed cash flows.

◆ Bond() [2/2]

Bond ( Natural  settlementDays,
const Calendar calendar,
Real  faceAmount,
const Date maturityDate,
const Date issueDate = Date(),
const Leg cashflows = Leg() 
)

old constructor for non amortizing bonds.

Warning:
The last passed cash flow must be the bond redemption. No other cash flow can have a date later than the redemption date.

Member Function Documentation

◆ deepUpdate()

void deepUpdate ( )
virtual

This method allows to explicitly update the instance itself and nested observers. If notifications are disabled a call to this method ensures an update of such nested observers. It should be implemented in derived classes whenever applicable

Reimplemented from Observer.

◆ cashflows()

const Leg & cashflows ( ) const
Note
returns all the cashflows, including the redemptions.

◆ redemptions()

const Leg & redemptions ( ) const

returns just the redemption flows (not interest payments)

◆ redemption()

const ext::shared_ptr<CashFlow>& redemption ( ) const

returns the redemption, if only one is defined

◆ cleanPrice() [1/2]

Real cleanPrice ( ) const

theoretical clean price

The default bond settlement is used for calculation.

Warning:
the theoretical price calculated from a flat term structure might differ slightly from the price calculated from the corresponding yield by means of the other overload of this function. If the price from a constant yield is desired, it is advisable to use such other overload.

◆ dirtyPrice() [1/2]

Real dirtyPrice ( ) const

theoretical dirty price

The default bond settlement is used for calculation.

Warning:
the theoretical price calculated from a flat term structure might differ slightly from the price calculated from the corresponding yield by means of the other overload of this function. If the price from a constant yield is desired, it is advisable to use such other overload.

◆ settlementValue() [1/2]

Real settlementValue ( ) const

theoretical settlement value

The default bond settlement date is used for calculation.

◆ yield() [1/2]

Rate yield ( const DayCounter dc,
Compounding  comp,
Frequency  freq,
Real  accuracy = 1.0e-8,
Size  maxEvaluations = 100,
Real  guess = 0.05,
Bond::Price::Type  priceType = Bond::Price::Clean 
) const

theoretical bond yield

The default bond settlement and theoretical price are used for calculation.

◆ cleanPrice() [2/2]

Real cleanPrice ( Rate  yield,
const DayCounter dc,
Compounding  comp,
Frequency  freq,
Date  settlementDate = Date() 
) const

clean price given a yield and settlement date

The default bond settlement is used if no date is given.

◆ dirtyPrice() [2/2]

Real dirtyPrice ( Rate  yield,
const DayCounter dc,
Compounding  comp,
Frequency  freq,
Date  settlementDate = Date() 
) const

dirty price given a yield and settlement date

The default bond settlement is used if no date is given.

◆ settlementValue() [2/2]

Real settlementValue ( Real  cleanPrice) const

settlement value as a function of the clean price

The default bond settlement date is used for calculation.

◆ yield() [2/2]

Rate yield ( Real  cleanPrice,
const DayCounter dc,
Compounding  comp,
Frequency  freq,
Date  settlementDate = Date(),
Real  accuracy = 1.0e-8,
Size  maxEvaluations = 100,
Real  guess = 0.05,
Bond::Price::Type  priceType = Bond::Price::Clean 
) const

yield given a (clean) price and settlement date

The default bond settlement is used if no date is given.

◆ accruedAmount()

virtual Real accruedAmount ( Date  d = Date()) const
virtual

accrued amount at a given date

The default bond settlement is used if no date is given.

Reimplemented in BTP, and CCTEU.

◆ nextCouponRate()

virtual Rate nextCouponRate ( Date  d = Date()) const
virtual

Expected next coupon: depending on (the bond and) the given date the coupon can be historic, deterministic or expected in a stochastic sense. When the bond settlement date is used the coupon is the already-fixed not-yet-paid one.

The current bond settlement is used if no date is given.

◆ previousCouponRate()

Rate previousCouponRate ( Date  d = Date()) const

Previous coupon already paid at a given date.

Expected previous coupon: depending on (the bond and) the given date the coupon can be historic, deterministic or expected in a stochastic sense. When the bond settlement date is used the coupon is the last paid one.

The current bond settlement is used if no date is given.

◆ setupExpired()

void setupExpired ( ) const
protectedvirtual

This method must leave the instrument in a consistent state when the expiration condition is met.

Reimplemented from Instrument.

◆ setupArguments()

void setupArguments ( PricingEngine::arguments *  ) const
protectedvirtual

When a derived argument structure is defined for an instrument, this method should be overridden to fill it. This is mandatory in case a pricing engine is used.

Reimplemented from Instrument.

◆ fetchResults()

void fetchResults ( const PricingEngine::results *  r) const
protectedvirtual

When a derived result structure is defined for an instrument, this method should be overridden to read from it. This is mandatory in case a pricing engine is used.

Reimplemented from Instrument.

◆ addRedemptionsToCashflows()

void addRedemptionsToCashflows ( const std::vector< Real > &  redemptions = std::vector< Real >())
protected

This method can be called by derived classes in order to build redemption payments from the existing cash flows. It must be called after setting up the cashflows_ vector and will fill the notionalSchedule_, notionals_, and redemptions_ data members.

If given, the elements of the redemptions vector will multiply the amount of the redemption cash flow. The elements will be taken in base 100, i.e., a redemption equal to 100 does not modify the amount.

Precondition
The cashflows_ vector must contain at least one coupon and must be sorted by date.

◆ setSingleRedemption() [1/2]

void setSingleRedemption ( Real  notional,
Real  redemption,
const Date date 
)
protected

This method can be called by derived classes in order to build a bond with a single redemption payment. It will fill the notionalSchedule_, notionals_, and redemptions_ data members.

◆ setSingleRedemption() [2/2]

void setSingleRedemption ( Real  notional,
const ext::shared_ptr< CashFlow > &  redemption 
)
protected

This method can be called by derived classes in order to build a bond with a single redemption payment. It will fill the notionalSchedule_, notionals_, and redemptions_ data members.

◆ calculateNotionalsFromCashflows()

void calculateNotionalsFromCashflows ( )
protected

used internally to collect notional information from the coupons. It should not be called by derived classes, unless they already provide redemption cash flows (in which case they must set up the redemptions_ data member independently). It will fill the notionalSchedule_ and notionals_ data members.
