i'm trying to compute zero rates for malaysian klibor which pays quarterly coupon. i'm using the forward substitution method, as per formula below, but when i compare the zero rates to murex, the numbers get gradually worse with increasing tenor -- reaching differences of several percent for zero rates in the 15 yr tenor. what am i doing wrong here?


(D_n = [1-(r/4)\times\sum_{i=1/4}^{i=n-1/4}D_i] / (1+r/4))
