SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Analyzes the interest rate swap curve by pricing swaps across multiple tenors and overlaying government and inflation curves to identify curve trade opportunities, helping traders decompose real rates and spot steepeners, flatteners, or butterfly trades.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-tenor swap pricing and curve construction
  • Curve overlays with government yields and inflation breakevens
  • Trade idea generation with DV01-neutral sizing and carry/roll-down estimates
  • Cross-currency comparisons to identify relative value opportunities

Quick Start

Run a swap-curve analysis by inputting swap, government, and inflation curves into the MCP tools and review the resulting curve metrics and trade ideas.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a swap curve to generate DV01-neutral trade ideas?

To analyze a swap curve, price swaps across multiple tenors and overlay government and inflation curves to derive DV01-neutral trade signals with carry and roll-down estimates. This identifies relative value opportunities across currencies.

What is swap curve decomposition and how does it identify steepener or flattener trades?

Swap curve decomposition prices interest rate swaps across tenors and overlays government yields with inflation breakevens to assess curve shape. This reveals real rate dynamics to spot actionable steepener, flattener, or butterfly trades.

Can I use this approach for multi-currency swap curve analysis?

Yes, this approach supports multi-currency swap analysis by pricing interest rate swaps across tenors and comparing cross-currency curves. This identifies relative value opportunities for actionable trade recommendations.

How do I calculate real rates using inflation and government curve overlays?

Calculate real rates by overlaying inflation breakeven curves onto government yield curves during multi-tenor swap pricing. This decomposes nominal rates to reveal real rate dynamics for strategy development.

Do I need specific MCP tools to run interest rate curve analysis?

Yes, you need ir_swap, interest_rate_curve, and inflation_curve MCP tools to input swap, government, and inflation data. These generate the curve table and metrics required for trade recommendations.

What is the best way to size a butterfly trade using swap curve metrics?

Size a butterfly trade by extracting curve metrics from multi-tenor swap pricing and applying DV01-neutral weighting. This balances the trade profile while incorporating carry and roll-down estimates.
