Frequently Asked Questions

How is repo return calculated?

The principal, annual repo rate, and maturity days are multiplied; divided by 365 to reduce from annual basis to daily maturity. Net return is found by deducting withholding/deduction if any.

Why is the repo rate a user input?

Repo rates can vary according to market conditions, the institution traded, and maturity. Therefore, the rate is not fixed.
