Floater Tranche

From Open Risk Manual

Definition

Floater Tranche. A floater tranche is a tranche that is keyed to an index and a spread.

For example, 3 month LIBOR +50 -- meaning that the coupon would be whatever the 3 month LIBOR is plus 50 basis points. This is not a continuously updated number, rather it resets at specified intervals.
