This paper considers the problem of pricing options with early-exercise features whose pay-off depends on several sources of uncertainty. We propose a stochastic grid method for estimating the optimal exercise policy and using this policy to obtain a low-biased estimator for high-dimensional...

This paper describes a practical simulation-based algorithm, which we call the <I>Stochastic Grid Bundling Method </I> (SGBM) for pricing multi-dimensional Bermudan (i.e. discretely exercisable) options. The method generates a direct estimator of the option price, an optimal early-exercise policy as...</i>

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...
