CFA一级衍生品框架考察什么内容?高顿君把真实考生学习经验分享给你~一举拿下CFA一级衍生品!

CFACFA一级衍生品框架介绍

CFA一级衍生品在整个一级考试中的占比并不高,6%左右,也就是一共12个题。然而,很多人会误以为这门课并没有那么重要,其实并非如此。
虽然衍生品在CFA一级考试占比少,但是在二级考试中,一下子上升到10%-15%,而三级考试中,大部分的知识点会运用到衍生品相关的知识。因此,衍生品这门课,我们是要好好学的,有利于我们通过CFA二级三级考试。
那么,衍生品在CFA一级考试中的框架是怎么样的呢
一共是三个Reading:
Reading57讲的是衍生品的基本概念,我们会介绍四大衍生产品,分别是forward,futures,swap,option;
Reading58介绍的是衍生品的定价和估值,我们可以通过一些模型来判断这个衍生品是被高估了还是被低估了,这部分内容是CFA二级衍生品的考试重点,以计算题为主,而在CFA一级考试中,只需要我们掌握定价和估值的区别以及核心思想就可以了,以概念理解为主;
Reading59介绍的是如何运用衍生品来做风险管理,这是最简单的应用了,在这一章中,我们会学到两个策略:一个叫做covered call,一个叫做protective put。这两种策略的构建方法,图形,盈亏平衡点,最大值,最小值,都是历年考试的重点。
以上就是CFA一级衍生品的框架结构,整体来讲,还是比较清晰的。

CFACFA一级衍生品学习经验

衍生品在CFA一级中的考试占比并不太大,但是这门课程在CFA整个知识体系中的逻辑关系非常清晰,而且,如果一级对于衍生品的概念没有很深入的理解,到了二级中,你会发现大量复杂公式让人摸不着头脑。
其实,衍生品的框架结构很清楚:一级重点在于概念的理解,二级重点在于定价和估值,三级重点在于用衍生品做风险管理,原来的考纲也是这么安排的。
但是,近些年来,CFA考纲有了一些变化,把二级的定价和估值的基本概念以及三级中风险管理的基本策略放到了一级的考纲中去;
而三级中的各种复杂策略的概念在二级中也有体现。
由此可见,协会的目的是为了增加各个级别之间的连贯性,这一级别的内容是为了下一级内容打好基础,让学员在学习上更加容易接受新的知识。

CFA"Derivative"Exercise:Examples of Derivatives

Questions 1:
Which of the following attributes is least likely to be a requirement for the existence of riskless arbitrage?The underlying security:
A、can be sold short.
B、is a financial asset.
C、is relatively liquid.
【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security that can be arbitraged may be either a financial or a non-financial security.
A is incorrect.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security must be able to be short sold.
C is incorrect.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security must be relatively liquid so it is easy to buy and sell at a low cost.
Questions 2:
Which of the following is least likely to be an example of a derivative?
A、An exchange-traded fund
B、A contract to sell Alphabet Inc.’s shares at a fixed price
C、A contract to buy Australian dollars at a predetermined exchange rate
【Answer to question 2】A
【analysis】
A is correct.Although an exchange-traded fund derives its value from the underlying assets it holds,it does not transform the performance of those assets and so is not a derivative.
B is incorrect.A contract to sell Alphabet Inc.’s shares transforms the performance of the underlying shares of Alphabet Inc and is an example of an option derivative.
C is incorrect.A contract to buy Australian dollars transforms the performance of the underlying currency and is an example of a currency derivative.
