• Errmphl. Merge with bond (which already contains most of this information anyway). Merges make articles fat and happy. -- BD2412 ^talk 20:20, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)
• Keep and don't merge. This topic is definitely expandable. It should go further into methodology for varying the coupon, including the various "benchmark rates" (of which LIBOR is only one) and the reset frequency. It should also discuss the valuation of floating rate bonds. Finally, it should mention the use of floating rate bonds in hedging. Just for starters. DS1953 21:19, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • I'd be inclined to change my vote if the article were to develop in that direction. -- BD2412 ^talk 21:38, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)
• Keep I can see a lot of financial articles linking to this. Its need to be expanded is obvious.--GrandCru 21:50, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand per DS1953. Capitalistroadster 09:52, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per DS1953. -- Jonel | Speak 04:10, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Wikipedia needs its financial and accounting sections expanded in many ways. This is one of them. Unfocused 29 June 2005 00:29 (UTC)
