Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We develop a rigorous two-currency pricing framework that can be constructed under either a domestic or a foreign currency numeraire. While plain vanilla interest rate derivative prices are recovered by design, exotic cross-currency interest rate products can be priced by determining no-arbitrage drifts for both the domestic and the foreign LIBORs under a uniform probability measure and by specifying the dynamics of the domestic and foreign currency leg of the exotic product. In a single-currency world, no-arbitrage drifts can always be found by specifying the evolution of the terminal LIBOR as a function of bond price volatilities, first, and solving for the drifts of all remaining LIBORs by backward induction. After introducing a second currency, we show that traditional backward induction for the second currency must fail due to interdependence between the respective bond price volatilities and LIBOR dynamics. In order to resolve any such interdependence, we propose calibrating the volatility function of the spot exchange rate to the terminal maturity spectrum of FX options and specifying a functional form for all dates prior to the terminal one. By choosing a multi-factor model setup, rather than relying on terminal decorrelation within a single-factor model, we allow for model calibration to an exogenous market correlation mix. Extending the model, we outline modifications to account for volatility skews by introducing displaced-diffusion to the LIBOR and FX rate dynamics.

Download or read book The LIBOR Market Model in Practice written by Dariusz Gatarek and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-01-30 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The LIBOR Market Model (LMM) is the first model of interest rates dynamics consistent with the market practice of pricing interest rate derivatives and therefore it is widely used by financial institution for valuation of interest rate derivatives. This book provides a full practitioner's approach to the LIBOR Market Model. It adopts the specific language of a quantitative analyst to the largest possible level and is one of first books on the subject written entirely by quants. The book is divided into three parts - theory, calibration and simulation. New and important issues are covered, such as various drift approximations, various parametric and nonparametric calibrations, and the uncertain volatility approach to smile modelling; a version of the HJM model based on market observables and the duality between BGM and HJM models. Co-authored by Dariusz Gatarek, the 'G' in the BGM model who is internationally known for his work on LIBOR market models, this book offers an essential perspective on the global benchmark for short-term interest rates.

This book was released on 2007-09-26 with total page 1016 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2nd edition of this successful book has several new features. The calibration discussion of the basic LIBOR market model has been enriched considerably, with an analysis of the impact of the swaptions interpolation technique and of the exogenous instantaneous correlation on the calibration outputs. A discussion of historical estimation of the instantaneous correlation matrix and of rank reduction has been added, and a LIBOR-model consistent swaption-volatility interpolation technique has been introduced. The old sections devoted to the smile issue in the LIBOR market model have been enlarged into a new chapter. New sections on local-volatility dynamics, and on stochastic volatility models have been added, with a thorough treatment of the recently developed uncertain-volatility approach. Examples of calibrations to real market data are now considered. The fast-growing interest for hybrid products has led to a new chapter. A special focus here is devoted to the pricing of inflation-linked derivatives. The three final new chapters of this second edition are devoted to credit. Since Credit Derivatives are increasingly fundamental, and since in the reduced-form modeling framework much of the technique involved is analogous to interest-rate modeling, Credit Derivatives -- mostly Credit Default Swaps (CDS), CDS Options and Constant Maturity CDS - are discussed, building on the basic short rate-models and market models introduced earlier for the default-free market. Counterparty risk in interest rate payoff valuation is also considered, motivated by the recent Basel II framework developments.

Download or read book Modern Pricing of Interest Rate Derivatives written by Riccardo Rebonato and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2002-11-24 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, interest-rate modeling has developed rapidly in terms of both practice and theory. The academic and practitioners' communities, however, have not always communicated as productively as would have been desirable. As a result, their research programs have often developed with little constructive interference. In this book, Riccardo Rebonato draws on his academic and professional experience, straddling both sides of the divide to bring together and build on what theory and trading have to offer. Rebonato begins by presenting the conceptual foundations for the application of the LIBOR market model to the pricing of interest-rate derivatives. Next he treats in great detail the calibration of this model to market prices, asking how possible and advisable it is to enforce a simultaneous fitting to several market observables. He does so with an eye not only to mathematical feasibility but also to financial justification, while devoting special scrutiny to the implications of market incompleteness. Much of the book concerns an original extension of the LIBOR market model, devised to account for implied volatility smiles. This is done by introducing a stochastic-volatility, displaced-diffusion version of the model. The emphasis again is on the financial justification and on the computational feasibility of the proposed solution to the smile problem. This book is must reading for quantitative researchers in financial houses, sophisticated practitioners in the derivatives area, and students of finance.

Download or read book Calibrating Libor Market Models written by Morten Bjerregaard Pedersen and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Libor Market Models arise from the general multi-factor Heath-Jarrow-Morton interest rate model. The Libor Market Models assume that, say, 3 months simple rates are log-normal. With pricing formulae for caps/floors and swaptions this makes the model easy to calibrate for a specific choice of volatility function. We describe how to calibrate the model using a non-parametric volatility function. We apply a smoothness criteria to the quality of fit used in calibration as erratic volatilities otherwise result from the calibration. We perform numerical studies using real market data from several markets to check the robustness of the implementation towards changes in model/calibration parameters. The implementation is indeed very robust and market quotes are matched within bid-offer spread.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive introduction to various numerical methods used in computational finance today Quantitative skills are a prerequisite for anyone working in finance or beginning a career in the field, as well as risk managers. A thorough grounding in numerical methods is necessary, as is the ability to assess their quality, advantages, and limitations. This book offers a thorough introduction to each method, revealing the numerical traps that practitioners frequently fall into. Each method is referenced with practical, real-world examples in the areas of valuation, risk analysis, and calibration of specific financial instruments and models. It features a strong emphasis on robust schemes for the numerical treatment of problems within computational finance. Methods covered include PDE/PIDE using finite differences or finite elements, fast and stable solvers for sparse grid systems, stabilization and regularization techniques for inverse problems resulting from the calibration of financial models to market data, Monte Carlo and Quasi Monte Carlo techniques for simulating high dimensional systems, and local and global optimization tools to solve the minimization problem.
Download or read book Advanced Fixed Income Analysis written by Moorad Choudhry and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2015-08-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each new chapter of the Second Edition covers an aspect of the fixed income market that has become relevant to investors but is not covered at an advanced level in existing textbooks. This is material that is pertinent to the investment decisions but is not freely available to those not originating the products. Professor Choudhry’s method is to place ideas into contexts in order to keep them from becoming too theoretical. While the level of mathematical sophistication is both high and specialized, he includes a brief introduction to the key mathematical concepts. This is a book on the financial markets, not mathematics, and he provides few derivations and fewer proofs. He draws on both his personal experience as well as his own research to bring together subjects of practical importance to bond market investors and analysts. Presents practitioner-level theories and applications, never available in textbooks Focuses on financial markets, not mathematics Covers relative value investing, returns analysis, and risk estimation
Download or read book Calibration and Parameterization Methods for the Libor Market Model written by Christoph Hackl and published by Springer Gabler. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Libor Market Model (LMM) is a mathematical model for pricing and risk management of interest rate derivatives and has been built on the framework of modelling forward rates. For the conceptual understanding of the model a strong background in the fields of mathematics, statistics, finance and especially for implementation, computer science is necessary. The book provides the ne cessary groundwork to understand the LMM and delivers a framework to implement a working model where possible calibration and parameterization methods for volatility and correlation are explained. Special emphasis lies also on the trade off of speed and correctness where differences in choosing random number generators and the advantages of factor reduction are shown.
Download or read book Libor Market Model written by Irina Götsch and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Libor Market Model is a financial model used to price and hedge exotic interest rate derivatives. The model is accepted and used widely due to its consistence with the standard market formula, Black's cap (floor) formula. This compatibility simplifies the calibration because the Black's quoted prices for standard interest rate derivatives can be directly used as an input for the model. The goal of this book is to examine the Libor Market Model theoretically and apply it practically to the pricing of standard caps, discrete barriers, European swaptions and ratchets. The dynamic of the Libor Market Model will be derived and all steps of its implementation using Monte Carlo simulation will be explained. Implementation is fulfilled using different volatility and correlation structuring. Certain care should be taken when calibrating the Libor Market Model and structuring the forward rate volatilities and correlations as they may affect prices of interest rate derivatives considerably. The book is aimed at graduate students of finance and practitioners implementing this model in practice.
