We model the joint dynamics of stock and interest rate by a hybrid SABR-Hull-White model, in which the asset price dynamics are modeled by the SABR model and the interest rate dynamics by the Hull-White short-rate model. We propose a projection formula, mapping the SABR-HW model parameters onto...

In this article we define a multi-factor equity-interest rate hybrid model with non-zero correlation between the stock and interest rate. The equity part is modeled by the Heston model [Heston-1993] and we use a Gaussian multi-factor short rate process [Brigo,Mercurio-2007; Hull-2006]. By...

The regulatory credit value adjustment (CVA) for an outstanding over-the-counter (OTC) derivative portfolio, is computed based on the portfolio exposure over its lifetime. Usually the future portfolio exposure is approximated using Monte Carlo simulation, as the portfolio value can be driven by...

This paper proposes a data-driven approach, by means of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN), to value financial options and to calculate implied volatilities with the aim of accelerating the corresponding numerical methods. With ANNs being universal function approximators, this method trains an...

In this paper we address the issue of finding an efficient and flexible numerical approach for calculating survival/default probabilities and pricing Credit Default Swaps under advanced jump dynamics. We have chosen to use the firm's value approach, modeling the firm's value by an...
