Interest Rates

Functions

These functions can be used to make various interest rate calculations:

  • Converting an interest rate from one compounding/time basis to another.
  • Calculating an interest rate expressed in a different compounding/time basis from the discount factor, and vice versa.
  • Interpolating an interest rate from interest rate / discount factor curve, using the following interpolation methods – linear, log linear, cubic spline and exponential.
  • Calculating forward interest rates expressed in different compounding/time basis from the interest rate or discount factor curve.
