This study deals with the pricing and hedging of inflation-indexed bonds. Under foreign exchange analogy we model the nominal short rate, real short rate and logarithm of the price index with an affi ne Gaussian process. Using the underlying a ffine property, we compute the nominal and...

This study deals with the dynamic hedging of single-tranche collateralized debt obligations (STCDOs). As a first step, we specify a top-down affine factor model in which a catastrophic risk component is incorporated in order to capture the dynamics of super-senior tranches. Next, we derive the...

This paper considers the pricing and hedging of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). CDOs are complex derivatives on a pool of credits which we choose to analyse in the top down model proposed in Filipovic et al. (2009). We reflect on the implied forward rates and bring them in connection...
