Abstract: Using Gateuax di erentials we study how the value of a stream of cash flows is changed as the forward rate curve changes. Using this approach we are able to derive an alternative to the standard method of duration matching, and we argue why it better than ordinary duration matching. We also solve the problem of optimally replicating a stream of cash flows with a portfolio of given zero-coupon bonds
