Conversely, if inflation averages below the break-even, the fixed-rate will outperform the inflation-linked.

Swap dealers calculate the forward fixed swap rate by equating the present value of all of the fixed payments to the present value of the expected floating rate payments implied by the forward curve. The risk of falling rates is mitigated as short term interest rates approach zero.
How is swap rate determined?
A swap rate is the rate of the fixed leg of a swap as determined by its particular market and the parties involved. When the swap is entered, the fixed rate will be equal to the value of floating-rate payments, calculated from the agreed counter-value.
