B.If company X defaults, the bank will be able to replace company X at no cost
C.If company X defaults, the swap with company Y continues
D.The bank’s bid-offer spread is 0.5 basis points
Answer: C
The bank`s bid-offer spread is 5 basis points not 0.5 basis points. The bank has quite separate transactions with X and Y. If one defaults, it still has to honor the swap with the other.
