Identifying, Valuing and Hedging of Embedded Options in Non-Maturity Deposits

Non-maturity deposits like savings accounts or demand deposits contain significant option risks caused by the bank's discretionary pricing and the customers' withdrawal right. Option risks follow from inherent non-linear factor exposures. I propose an ordinal response model for deposit rate jumps to identify non-linear factor exposures and a discrete-time term structure model to value the resulting option risks and to derive hedge measures "outside the model''. My delta profile resembles a constant maturity swap, but vega and gamma are more pronounced, which demonstrates that the widespread practice of static hedging with zero bonds is inadequate
