FITTEDBONDCURVE(1)

NAME
FittedBondCurve - Example of using QuantLib to fit discount curves

SYNOPSIS
FittedBondCurve

DESCRIPTION

FittedBondCurve is an example of using QuantLib. For a given set of coupons and terms to maturity, it computes the value of a bond by fitting the yields to a curve using different methods. The fitting methods are exponential splines, simple polynomials, Nelson-Siegel, and cubic B-splines. It then shifts the evaluation date into the future to compute implied forward par rates. It also computes yields after small price shifts.
