Modified Duration Explained | Estimate Bond Price Changes Fast
About this lesson
Modified duration helps you answer one important question. How much will a bond’s price change when interest rates move? In this video, we explain how to use modified duration to estimate price changes quickly and accurately. For example, if yields increase by 1% and the modified duration is 3.35, the bond price will fall by about 3.35%. We also explain why this relationship is negative and what it means for interest rate risk. This is a key concept in CFA Level I Fixed Income.
