When a curve is formed due to the association between bond yields and bond prices, its evaluation is known as Convexity.The time taken by the bond to change based on the interest rate changes are also displayed by Convexity.
Convexity is termed as an instrument of risk-management. A bond's exposure to the market risks is measured and managed by Convexity.
