Bond Yield Calculator MCP Server

This MCP calculates Yield to Maturity and current yield for fixed-income instruments. The `get_bond_yield_metrics` operation takes basic bond inputs and returns the exact math. You get the numbers right without switching to a spreadsheet. Claude Desktop processes the variables and hands you the final yield metrics.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The math includes modified duration and Macaulay duration. These metrics show exactly how much a bond's price will move when interest rates change. You feed the bond data into your agent. It calculates the duration risk so you know your exposure before you allocate capital.

Vinkius Catalog Access

Vinkius hosts over 4,000 managed MCPs in one place. You connect your AI client once and gain immediate access to the entire directory. This setup bypasses manual integration steps. Authentication happens through Vinkius so you can start running financial models immediately.
