In a given securities market, an investment at time t=0 of £95 generates a return of £105 at time t=2 years. However, an investment of £95 at time t=2 (which is agreed from the outset) generates a return of £108 at time t=5 years. Given that the 5-year par yield is 5.3%, calculate, to two decimal places, the current price of a 5-year bond of £10,000 nominal paying coupons at a rate of 4.5% per annum and redeemed at 95%.
