Fixed income: curves, bonds, swaps, day counts and calendars, with market conventions. The main classes: YieldCurve (zero curve, discount factors, implied forwards, bootstrap from annual par swaps), BondPricer (price/yield, duration, convexity, DV01; both whole-period and date-based with accrued interest), DayCount (ACT/360, ACT/365, 30/360, ACT/ACT ISDA), BusinessCalendar (holidays, roll conventions, T+n settlement, coupon schedules) with rule-based market calendars in HolidayCalendars, ShortRateModels (Vasicek, CIR and curve-fitted Hull-White: closed-form zero-coupon bonds plus the simulation steps a rates-factor Monte Carlo needs) and KeyRateDurations (where on the curve a bond's DV01 lives — per-node bumps whose slices sum back to the parallel move, tested).
  • Class
    Description
    Fixed-coupon bond analytics: price/yield conversion, Macaulay and modified duration, convexity, and DV01.
    Bucketed curve risk from the analytic Jacobian of the bootstrap, instead of bumping each quote and rebuilding the curves (MultiCurveRisk).
    Business-day calendar: weekends plus a holiday set, with the standard roll conventions, settlement-lag arithmetic, and coupon schedule generation.
    Date roll conventions for payment dates landing on non-business days.
    Where an irregular (stub) period goes when the dates do not divide into whole periods (ISDA 2006 definitions, section 4.14 and market practice).
    A quoted market instrument a MultiCurveBootstrap fits a curve to.
    How a DiscountCurve fills in between its pillars.
    A discount curve (OIS) and the projection curve of one index, as built by MultiCurveRisk.buildCurves(LocalDate, List, List, CurveInterpolation).
    Day-count conventions: the year fraction between two dates as real term sheets define it — because finance never agreed on how long a year is, and the disagreement is worth real money.
    A cash deposit over [start, end] at simple rate rate: 1 at start grows to 1 + rate * tau at end, tau from dayCount.
    A dated discount curve P(t) built from pillar discount factors: the object both an OIS discount curve and a projection curve (for example a 3M forwarding curve, a pseudo-discount curve whose ratios give the index forwards) are made of.
    The fixed leg of a VanillaSwap: coupons rate * tau_i paid on each period's payment date, with the schedule, day count, stub and payment lag from a LegConvention.
    Published fixings of one index (for example SOFR), by fixing date.
    The floating leg of a VanillaSwap: either a compounded overnight leg (OvernightLeg, SOFR-style) or a term-rate leg (TermRateLeg, IBOR-style).
    A forward rate agreement on the index period [start, end] at fixed rate rate.
    Rule-based holiday calendars for four settlement centres, generated as BusinessCalendar objects for a range of years.
    The settlement centres with rule-based calendars.
    A vanilla fixed-for-floating interest rate swap in the multi-curve framework: the floating coupons are projected off a projection curve (for example 3M) and both legs are discounted on the OIS curve (collateralised pricing; Bianchetti 2010, "Two curves, one price", Risk 23(8); Ametrano and Bianchetti 2013, "Everything you always wanted to know about multiple interest rate curve bootstrapping but were afraid to ask", SSRN 2219548).
    Key-rate durations: where on the curve a bond's rate risk lives.
    The schedule and accrual conventions of one swap leg: how often it pays, how a period's year fraction is measured, which calendar and roll adjust the dates, where a stub goes, and how many business days after the accrual end the payment is made.
    One accrual period.
    Multi-curve bootstrap: an OIS discount curve fitted to its own instruments, then projection curves (3M, 6M, ...) fitted with the OIS curve held fixed for discounting (Ametrano and Bianchetti 2013, SSRN 2219548, sections 3-4).
    Curve risk on a bootstrapped OIS + projection curve pair by bumping the market quotes and rebuilding: the sensitivities a desk hedges with, because they are expressed in the instruments it can trade.
    Nelson-Siegel yield-curve fit — the parametric answer to "what shape is the curve", where YieldCurve is the exact-repricing answer to "what IS the curve".
    Fitted parameters plus the fit's root-mean-square error.
    An overnight indexed swap: fixed rate against the daily-compounded overnight rate (SOFR, ESTR, SONIA), same schedule on both legs, payment on the accrual end date (no payment lag).
    How a compounded-in-arrears overnight coupon (SOFR, ESTR, SONIA) reads its daily fixings: lookback, observation shift and lockout, as described in the ISDA 2021 Interest Rate Derivatives Definitions (section 6.9, overnight rate compounding) and the ARRC SOFR conventions.
    A compounded-in-arrears overnight floating leg (SOFR, ESTR, SONIA) with payment lag, lookback, observation shift, lockout, stubs and realised fixings for seasoned trades.
    A short-term interest rate future (3M SOFR/Euribor style) on the index period [start, end], quoted by its futures rate rate = (100 - price)/100.
    Rates volatility products priced off the curve: the bridge between YieldCurve (where forwards and discount factors live) and the option models on a forward rate, pricing.Black76 (lognormal and shifted lognormal) and pricing.Bachelier (normal).
    A vol type together with its displacement (0 unless shifted lognormal).
    Which vol a quote is: lognormal (Black-76), shifted lognormal (Black-76 on forward + shift and strike + shift) or normal (Bachelier).
    The three classic short-rate models, each answering "what is a zero-coupon bond worth if the short rate follows this SDE?"
    Svensson (Nelson-Siegel-Svensson) yield-curve fit — NelsonSiegel with a second curvature hump, the form most central banks actually publish (the ECB's daily curve is exactly this):
    Fitted parameters plus the fit's root-mean-square error.
    A term-rate floating leg (IBOR-style, or a term SOFR leg): each coupon is the index rate fixed fixingLagDays business days before the accrual start, plus a spread, paid with the leg's payment lag.
    A fixed-for-floating swap built from two convention-driven legs: the replacement for the single-curve, annual, tau = 1 methods of the SwapPricer (removed in 4.0).
    Zero-coupon yield curve.
