Contingent Convertibles ("CoCos") are contingent capital instruments which convert into shares, or have a principal write down, if a trigger event takes place. CoCos exhibit the undesirable so-called "death-spiral effect": by actively hedging the equity risk, investors can (unintentionally)...

In this paper we obtain some formulas for pricing contingent convertibles subject to what we call extension risk, i.e., the possibility that bond issuer does not buy back the bond at pre specified call dates and then new coupons rate are established until bond maturity. We follow a structural...

In 1988 Dybvig introduced the payoff distribution pricing model (PDPM) as an alternative to the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). Under this new paradigm agents preferences depend on the probability distribution of the payoff and for the same distribution agents prefer the payoff that requires...

Convergence in probability and central limit laws of bipower variation for Gaussian processes with stationary increments and for integrals with respect to such processes are derived. The main tools of the proofs are some recent powerful techniques of Wiener/Itô/Malliavin calculus for...

We present some new asymptotic results for functionals of higher order differences of Brownian semi-stationary processes. In an earlier work [4] we have derived a similar asymptotic theory for first order differences. However, the central limit theorems were valid only for certain values of the...

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of power and multipower variations of stochastic processes. Processes of the type considered serve in particular, to analyse data of velocity increments of a fluid in a turbulence regime with spot intermittency sigma. The purpose of the present...

We develop the asymptotic theory for the realised power variation of the processes X = f • G, where G is a Gaussian process with stationary increments. More specifically, under some mild assumptions on the variance function of the increments of G and certain regularity condition on the path of...

We look at the problem of pricing CoCo bonds where the underlying risky asset dynamics are given by a smile conform model, more precisely an exponential Lévy process incorporating jumps and heavy tails. A core mathematical quantity that is needed in closed form in order to produce an exact...
