Would there be any significant correlation between interest rate and the property derivative so that you cannot price property derivatives with the same assumptions as say equity or interest rate products?

Property derivatives typically involve a swap of returns on commercial property against floating interest rates plus a spread for a period of three years or longer. Commercial property is the largest physical asset class not currently taking full advantage of derivatives.

Since the underlying asset - the property index is not tradable, the market is not so-called dynamically complete, so there is no single market valuation of the derivatives. People who have too much exposure to property risk (e.g. developers) may value a specific derivatives differently from those who have too much exposure to interest rate risk (e.g. banks). That's why they trade, isn't it?

amazing... Great info
We all have seen the great recession. And we are now seeing that stock markets are rising. Do you really belive that there is a sound rationale behind the steep rise in the stock market?
The continuing slide of the rupee (INR) against the US dollar (USD) is stoking fears that foreign institutional investors (FIIs) could step up sale of Indian equities in the coming days, Do you think that this will lead to FII pull-out ?
