In the past four decades, participants in the fixed-income markets have been
introduced to new analytical frameworks for analyzing fixed-income securities
and formulating fixed-income portfolio strategies. In discussing fixed-income
securities and strategies, we often hear terms such as model duration, empiri-
cal duration, effective duration, spread duration, positive and negative convexity,
option-adjusted spread, duration times spread, prepayment rates, spot rates, for-
ward rates, yield volatility, lattice model, value-at-risk, factor models, optimiza-
tion, simulation, machine learning, fat tails, and default correlation, and the list
goes on. What do these concepts mean? Why are these concepts useful in the
analysis of fixed-income securities and the formulation of fixed-income strate-
gies? Moreover, what are the dangers of using these concepts without a complete
understanding of what they mean and their limitations?
Fixed Income Mathematics: Analytical and Statistical Techniques not only
explains these and many other important concepts that players in the bond market
need to know, but also sets forth the foundation needed to understand them, their
computation, their limitations, and their application to fixed-income analysis and
portfolio management. It begins with the basic concepts of the mathematics of
finance (the time value of money) and systematically builds on these, taking you
through the state-of-the-art methodologies for evaluating fixed-income securities
with embedded options: mortgage-backed securities (mortgage pass-through
securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and stripped mortgage-backed secu-
rities). The concepts are illustrated with numerical examples and graphs. The mate-
rial is self-contained and requires only a basic knowledge of elementary algebra
to understand.

The first edition of this book was published in 1993. Several individuals assisted
in various ways in subsequent editions of the book, and we acknowledge them
below:
• Jan Mayle and Dragomir Krgin provided information on the day count
conventions discussed in Chapter 5.
• Chapter 19 on interest rate modeling is coauthored with Gerald W.
Buetow, Jr. (BFRC Services), Bernd Hanke (BFRC Services), and
Brian J. Henderson (School of Business, The George Washington
University).
• Parts of Chapter 21 on valuing bonds with embedded options draws
from the work of Frank Fabozzi with Andrew Kalotay (Andrew Kalotay
Associates) and George Williams.
• Chapter 24 benefitted from discussions and feedback about liquidity
measures provided by Stefano Pasquale (BlackRock) and Harshdeep
Singh Ahluwalia (Vanguard).

provided by Bruce J. Feibel (State Street).
• The illustration of attribution analysis of a hypothetical UK corporate
bond/credit portfolio in the online supplement C was prepared by René
Alby (Insight Investment).

Asset Management).
• In Chapter 32, the illustration of the Axioma Factor-Based Fixed
Income Risk Model developed by Qontigo’s Analytics Research group

Before the 1980s, the analysis of fixed-income securities was relatively simple. In
an economic environment that exhibited relatively stable interest rates, investors
purchased fixed-income securities intending to hold them to maturity. Yield to
maturity was used as a proxy measure of their relative value. Risk was gauged in
terms of default risk based on the credit rating assigned by the major credit-rating
agencies. When a fixed-income security was callable, a second measure—yield to
call—was used to assess its relative value. For a callable bond, the long-standing
rule of thumb for a conservative investor at the time was to select the lower of the
yield to maturity and the yield to call as the potential return. Moreover, prior to the
1980s, there was little trading of fixed-income securities. The strategy was simply
a buy-and-hold strategy.
Those days of reliance on simple analytics to manage a fixed-income port-
folio are gone. This is because fixed-income portfolios are actively traded, requir-
ing the use of analytics that draw from the fields of statistics, data science,
mathematics, and operations research. Moreover, prior to the 1970s, corporate
bond issuers were primarily those with an investment-grade rating. Non-investment-
grade corporate bonds that were traded were those of one-time investment-grade
bond issues that were subsequently downgraded, referred to as fallen angels. In
1977, Bear Stearns underwrote non-investment-grade corporate bonds, popularly
referred to as junk bonds and high-yield bonds, with bond market participants
seeing opportunities to enhance returns by constructing a diversified portfolios of
such issues despite higher default risk. Other market participants developed credit
analytics to identify junk bond issuers that were candidates for an upgraded rating,
thereby enhancing returns. In fact, 6 years after the Bear Stearns underwriting of
the first junk bond, roughly a third of all corporate bonds were non-investment
grade.1 Investing in non-investment-grade corporate bonds made investors recog-
nize the need to forecast default rates for a diversified portfolio of such bonds and
recovery rates.
The need for more rigorous analytics became clear with the development of
the mortgage-backed securities (MBS) market. When the first MBS were issued
in 1968, these securities were acquired primarily because of their greater offered
yield than Treasury securities, and they were not traded actively. Purchasing MBS
based purely on a potential higher yield than Treasury securities was clearly naive.
1. Jared Cummans, “A Brief History of Bond Investing,” BondFunds.com, October 1, 2014. Available
at http://bondfunds.com/education/a-brief-history-of-bond-investing/.
Once the concept of prepayment risk was understood and that different MBS issues
backed by different pools of mortgages paid at different prepayment speeds, the
importance of prepayment modeling in the selection of the specific MBS to include
in a portfolio made investors realize the need to bring in statistical modeling and
ushered in the individuals trained in mathematics, statistics, and physics. The
modeling of prepayments became even more important with the development of
mortgage-derivative products (collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage
strips) where the pricing of some of these products is highly sensitive to changes
in prepayment rates and interest rates. Although the initial MBS issues were viewed
as having the same credit risk as U.S. Treasuries, in the late 1980s, MBS issued
by private entities, referred to a nonagency MBS, began to appear. The pricing of
nonagency MBS made investors realize the need for not only modeling prepay-
ments but also forecasting default rates and recovery rates.
A look at the history of interest rates and the properties of a bond’s price
volatility provides insights into the need for analytics beyond those used in tradi-
tional fixed-income analytics. Let’s look at 30-year Treasury yields in the follow-
ing 3 years:
1977: 7.8%
1981: 15.21% (historical high)
2021: 1.90%
Let’s suppose that a 30-year Treasury bond was purchased in each year with a
coupon rate equal to the yield. As explained in Chapter 5, each bond would trade
at par value or 100. Suppose that after the bond is purchased, interest rates increase
by 50 basis points.2 The new market price, the change in the price, and the percent-
age price change are shown below:
Percentage
Yield/Coupon Initial New Yield New Price Price
Year Rate (%) Price ($) (%) Price ($) Change ($) Change (%)
Look at the price sensitivity of the three bonds. In the historical high interest-
rate environment of 1981, a 50 basis point change would have resulted in a percent-
age price change of only about half of 1977, about a third of that of 2021, and
almost triple that of the lowest of the three yields in this illustration. This follows
from a property of the price sensitivity of a bond described in Chapter 13: for a
given maturity, the lower the market yield, the greater is the price volatility. As
interest rates decline, bond portfolio managers focused increasingly on measures
of interest-rate sensitivity, the two most popular measures being duration and
convexity (the subject of Chapters 13 and 14).
3. As one well-known bond markets analytics guru once remarked: “At one time we hired salespeople
based on their ability to drink with clients. Now we hire them based on their ability to solve dif-
ferential equations.”
