- Jasper, Inc. is looking for a five-year term loan of $3 million. The firm will have to pay a premium of 1.5 percent for default risk to its bank and another 0.75 percent for maturity risk. The current prime rate is 7.5 percent.

The risk-free interest rate is 3% per annum, and storage costs are 7% per annum. The interest rates on the two loans are expressed with annual compounding. The risk-free interest rate and storage costs are expressed with continuous compounding. Suppose that the price of Bitcoin is $58,000 and the corporate client wants to borrow $1,160,000. Discuss whether the rate of interest on the Bitcoin loan is too high or too low in relation to the rate of interest on the cash loan.

Coinbase has been offered the rates per annum on a $500 million 5-year loan by its bank: (SOFR: Secured Overnight Financing Rate) shown below.

However, the board of Coinbase fears that the interest rate will continue rising and think it is too risky to have variable liability in a medium time horizon. They wish to borrow with a fixed liability. Company Biance on the other hand, is to seek opportunities by having floating exposure. The offered rates per annum on a $500 million 5-year loan for Biance are also shown below. Design a swap contract that can facilitate the objectives of Coinbase and Biance. The swap contract should be equally beneficial to both companies. Company Biance Company Coinbase Fixed Rate 5.00% 7.00% Floating Rate SOFR+1.50% SOFR+2.00%arrow_forward
