In this webinar, we will look at a number of bond calculations that you must know in order to successfully pass your CFA Level I exam. More specifically, Kaplan Schweser's Jim Maher will: 

  • Examine the frequency of compounding, also known as periodicity
  • Calculate annual yield on a bond for varying compounding periods in a year
  • Review yield spread measures for fixed-rate bonds including the G-spread and the Z-spread

So, come prepared to take some notes and perform some calculations!
