More About
Callable Convertible
A convertible bond that is callable by the issuer. The issuer of the bond forces conversion, removing the advantage that conversion is at the discretion of the bondholder.
Upon call, the bondholder can either convert the bond or redeem at the call price. This option enables the issuer to control the price of the convertible bond and, if necessary, refinance the debt with a new cheaper bond.
Puttable Convertible
A convertible bond with a put feature allows the bondholder to sell back the bond at a premium on a specific date.
This option protects the holder against rising interest rates by reducing the year to maturity.
Algorithms
cbondbycrr
, cbondbyeqp
, cbondbyitt
, and cbondbystt
return price information in the form of
a price vector and a price tree. These functions implement the risk in the form of either a
credit spread or incorporating the risk of bond default. To incorporate the risk in the form of
credit spread (Tsiveriotis-Fernandes method), use the optional name-value pair argument
Spread
. To incorporate default risk into the algorithm, specify the
optional name-value pair arguments DefaultProbability
and
RecoveryRate
.

Version History
Introduced in R2015bR2022b: Serial date numbers not recommended
Although cbondbyitt
supports serial date numbers,
datetime
values are recommended instead. The
datetime
data type provides flexible date and time
formats, storage out to nanosecond precision, and properties to account for time
zones and daylight saving time.
To convert serial date numbers or text to datetime
values, use the datetime
function. For example:
t = datetime(738427.656845093,"ConvertFrom","datenum"); y = year(t)
y = 2021
There are no plans to remove support for serial date number inputs.
