WHAT DOES SWAPTION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Swaption

A swaption is an option granting its owner the right but not the obligation to enter into an underlying swap. Although options can be traded on a variety of swaps, the term "swaption" typically refers to options on interest rate swaps. There are two types of swaption contracts: ▪ A payer swaption gives the owner of the swaption the right to enter into a swap where they pay the fixed leg and receive the floating leg. ▪ A receiver swaption gives the owner of the swaption the right to enter into a swap in which they will receive the fixed leg, and pay the floating leg. In addition, a "straddle" refers to a combination of a receiver and a payer option on the same underlying swap. The buyer and seller of the swaption agree on: ▪ the premium of the swaption ▪ length of the option period, ▪ the terms of the underlying swap, including: ▪ notional amount ▪ the fixed rate ▪ the frequency of observation for the floating leg of the swap...
