A key requirement of any equity hybrid derivatives pricing model is the ability to rapidly and accurately calibrate to vanilla option prices. To this end, we present two methods for calibrating a local volatility model under correlated stochastic interest rates. This is achieved by first fitting...

Although the effect of interest rate stochasticity can safely be ignored for short-dated exchange traded volatility derivatives, this is not the case for the kind of long-dated OTC derivatives often used by insurance companies and other financial institutions. We therefore extend existing...

Credit value adjustment (CVA) and related charges have emerged as important risk factors following the Global Financial Crisis. These charges depend on uncertain future values of underlying products, and are usually computed by Monte Carlo simulation. For products that cannot be valued...

Stochastic volatility, local volatility and stochastic interest rates are three of the most important extensions to the standard Black-Scholes framework. Although much work has been done on models incorporating one or two of these extensions, very little has been done on the combination of all...

In the framework of the displaced-diffusion LIBOR market model, we derive the pathwise adjoint method for the iterative predictor-corrector and Glasserman-Zhao drift approximations in the spot measure. This allows us to compute fast deltas and vegas under these schemes. We compare the...

In this paper, we present an efficient approach to compute the first and the second order price sensitivities in the Heston model using the algorithmic differentiation approach. Issues related to the applicability of the pathwise method are discussed in this paper as most existing numerical...

We introduce a new arbitrage-free interpolation scheme for the displaced-diffusion LIBOR market model. Using this new extension, and the Piterbarg interpolation scheme, we study the simulation of range accrual coupons when valuing callable range accruals in the displaced-diffusion LIBOR market...

We develop an efficient algorithm to implement the adjoint method that computes sensitivities of an interest rate derivative (IRD) with respect to different underlying rates in the co-terminal swap-rate market model. The order of computation per step of the new method is shown to be proportional...

This paper derives the pathwise adjoint method for the predictor-corrector drift approximation in the displaced-diffusion LIBOR market model. We present a comparison of the Greeks between log-Euler and predictor-corrector, showing both methods have the same computational order but the latter to...
