A company has a long term loan from a bank at a fixed rate of interest. It expects interest rates to go down. Which of the following instruments can the company use to convert its fixed rate liability to a floating rate liability?
A fixed for floating interest rate swap would be the most appropriate to the company's needs. It will allow it to receive a fixed rate (which will offset the fixed payment it has to make on the loan) and pay a floating rate which it expects will be lower than the fixed rates. Choice 'a' is the correct answer.
