  14.   Which of the following statements are TRUE?
  I      The convexity of a 10-year zero coupon bond is higher than the convexity of a 10-year, 6% bond
  II      The convexity of a 10-year zero coupon bond is higher than the convexity of a 6% bond with a duration of 10 years.
  III     Convexity grows proportionately with the maturity of the bond
  IV    Convexity is always positive for all types of bonds.
  V     Convexity is always positive for “straight” bonds.
  A.    I only
  B.    I and II only
  C.    I and V only
  D.    II, III, and V only
  答案:C
  答疑:這道題目考察的是convexity的性質(zhì), All else equal, convexity increase for longer maturities, lower coupons, and lower yields。需注意的是,convexity是與到期日的平方成正比的。
