2 hrs confidence: 
fixed rate payer / floating rate receiver Explanation: If I understand the question, this is an interest rate swap. Here are some good sources: http://www.sternbrothers.com/SternUniversity/HedgingandDeriv... http://sec.edgar-online.com/2003/08/14/0001193125-03-036801/... The SEC document discusses a swap using the above terms. If I didn't understand your whole question, just add a note...Hope this helps. |

6 hrs confidence:
pay fixed, receive variable Explanation: Usual 'adjectival' form to describe an interest-rate swap. 2x as many Google hits as the variant with 'floating' instead of 'variable'; either is acceptable. Hyphenate or not according to your preference. |
