BOND_EQUIVALENT

Constant BOND_EQUIVALENT 

const BOND_EQUIVALENT: RateConvention;
Expand description

The bond-equivalent yield’s own basis: semi-annual compounding on ACT/365F.

This is the coupon-note convention a zero is compared against, and it is deliberately not the zero’s own quote convention — a market that quotes its zeros differently is read through ZeroCouponBond::quoted_yield, which comes from the registered method. Both are available because they answer different questions, and naming them apart is what stops one being read as the other.
