This example shows how to use datetime inputs for Settle and Maturity and also use a table for ZeroData to compute the key rate duration of a bond for key rate times of 2, 5, 10, and 30 years. 

ZeroRates = [0.0476 .0466 .0465 .0468 .0473 .0478 ...
.0493 .0539 .0572 .0553 .0530]';

ZeroDates = daysadd('31-Dec-1998',[30 360 360*2 360*3 360*5 ...
360*7 360*10 360*15 360*20 360*25 360*30],1);

ZeroData = table(datetime(ZeroDates,'ConvertFrom','datenum','Locale','en_US'), ZeroRates);

krdur = bndkrdur(ZeroData,.0525,datetime('12/31/1998','Locale','en_US'),...
datetime('11/15/2028','Locale','en_US'),'KeyRates',[2 5 10 30])

Forward starting date of payments, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'StartDate' and a scalar or a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

Output Arguments

Key rate durations, returned as a numBonds-by-numRates matrix.

Algorithms

bndkrdur computes the key rate durations for one or more bonds given a zero curve and a set of key rates. By default, the key rates are each of the zero curve rates. For each key rate, the duration is computed by shifting the zero curve up and down by a specified amount (ShiftValue) at that particular key rate, computing the present value of the bond in each case with the new zero curves, and then evaluating the following:

krduri = (PVdown - PVup)(PV × ShiftValue × 2)

Note

The shift to the curve is computed by shifting the particular key rate by the ShiftValue and then interpolating the values of the curve in the interval between the previous and next key rates. For the first key rate, any curve values before the date are equal to the ShiftValue; likewise, for the last key rate, any curve values after the date are equal to the ShiftValue.
