Bond Rate-Shock Stress Tester
Stress a bond through parallel yield shocks of ±50, ±100, ±200 bp using full repricing, not a duration approximation.
Formula
Full repricing at each shocked yield captures convexity exactly — important for the ±200 bp regulatory-style scenarios where duration-only estimates can be off by several percent on long bonds.
