On cross-currency models with stochastic volatility and correlated interest rates

We construct multi-currency models with stochastic volatility and correlated stochastic interest rates with a full matrix of correlations. We frst deal with a foreign exchange (FX) model of Heston-type, in which the domestic and foreign interest rates are generated by the short-rate process of Hull-White [HW96]. We then extend the framework by modeling the interest rate by a stochastic volatility displaced-diffusion Libor Market Model [AA02], which can model an interest rate smile. We provide semi-closed form approximations which lead to effcient calibration of the multi-currency models. Finally, we add a correlated stock to the framework and discuss the construction, model calibration and pricing of equity- FX-interest rate hybrid payoffs.
