View answer resolution
【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct. The bid–offer spread reflects the prices at which secondary market dealers will buy from a customer (bid) and sell to a customer (offer). It is an indicator of liquidity because a tighter bid–offer spread represents a more liquid market than a market with a wider bid–offer spread.
A is incorrect because the bid-to-cover ratio represents the activity in a primary bond market auction.
C is incorrect because the settlement period represents the market’s conventions for settlement for different types of bonds (e.g., government bonds or corporate bonds.)
【Answer to question 2】A
【analysis】
A is correct. A floating-rate note pays a floating interest rate equal to a reference rate plus a spread.
B is incorrect because a plain vanilla bond pays a fixed rate of interest (i.e, the coupon payment does not change during the bond’s life).
C is incorrect because a pure discount bond does not pay any coupon interest during the life of the bond.
