Path-Dependent Floating Rate Note

A floating rate note with embedded caps or collars that limit the floating rate adjustment to, for example, 25 basis points from one reset to the next. The rate is path-dependent because the adjustment limit constrains the maximum or minimum rate for later resets as a function of previous rates. Also called Near Perfect Floating Rate Note. Compare to Ratchet Swap.
