Exam CIFC Topic 1 Question 62 Discussion

Actual exam question for IFSE Institute's CIFC exam
Question #: 62
Topic #: 1
Patrick is a portfolio manager for the HyperTally Growth Fund. It has generated an annualized rate of return of
10% this past year. However, with the anticipation of very high inflation to soon occur, there is also an expectation of higher interest rates. Patrick is concerned about the future returns of existing stocks within the fund. What may Patrick do to protect against the market value of the fund dropping?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

Explanation
A put option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to sell an underlying stock at a specified price (the strike price) within a specified time period (the expiration date). The seller of a put option is obligated to buy the stock if the buyer exercises the option. Patrick can purchase put options for the fund's existing assets, which means he can lock in a minimum selling price for his stocks in case the market value drops below the strike price. This way, he can protect against potential losses and hedge his portfolio against market risk.
