  • Numerical Solution of Jump-Diffusion LIBOR Market Models
    Finance Stochast. 7, 1–27 (2003) c Springer-Verlag 2003 Numerical solution of jump-diffusion LIBOR market models Paul Glasserman1, Nicolas Merener2 1 403 Uris Hall, Graduate School of Business, Columbia University, New York, NY 10027, USA (e-mail: [email protected]) 2 Department of Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics, Columbia University, New York, NY 10027, USA (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract. This paper develops, analyzes, and tests computational procedures for the numerical solution of LIBOR market models with jumps. We consider, in par- ticular, a class of models in which jumps are driven by marked point processes with intensities that depend on the LIBOR rates themselves. While this formulation of- fers some attractive modeling features, it presents a challenge for computational work. As a first step, we therefore show how to reformulate a term structure model driven by marked point processes with suitably bounded state-dependent intensities into one driven by a Poisson random measure. This facilitates the development of discretization schemes because the Poisson random measure can be simulated with- out discretization error. Jumps in LIBOR rates are then thinned from the Poisson random measure using state-dependent thinning probabilities. Because of discon- tinuities inherent to the thinning process, this procedure falls outside the scope of existing convergence results; we provide some theoretical support for our method through a result establishing first and second order convergence of schemes that accommodates thinning but imposes stronger conditions on other problem data. The bias and computational efficiency of various schemes are compared through numerical experiments. Key words: Interest rate models, Monte Carlo simulation, market models, marked point processes JEL Classification: G13, E43 Mathematics Subject Classification (1991): 60G55, 60J75, 65C05, 90A09 The authors thank Professor Steve Kou for helpful comments and discussions.

Introduction We consider the Black Model for futures/forwards which is the market standard for quoting prices (via implied volatilities). Black[1976] considered the problem of writing options on commodity futures and this was the first \natural" extension of the Black-Scholes model. This model also is used to price options on interest rates and interest rate sensitive instruments such as bonds. Since the Black-Scholes analysis assumes constant (or deterministic) interest rates, and so forward interest rates are realised, it is difficult initially to see how this model applies to interest rate dependent derivatives. However, if f is a forward interest rate, it can be shown that it is consistent to assume that • The discounting process can be taken to be the existing yield curve. • The forward rates are stochastic and log-normally distributed. The forward rates will be log-normally distributed in what is called the T -forward measure, where T is the pay date of the option.

  • Pricing Bermudan Swaptions on the LIBOR Market Model Using the Stochastic Grid Bundling Method
    Pricing Bermudan Swaptions on the LIBOR Market Model using the Stochastic Grid Bundling Method Stef Maree,∗ Jacques du Toity Abstract We examine using the Stochastic Grid Bundling Method (SGBM) to price a Bermu- dan swaption driven by a one-factor LIBOR Market Model (LMM). Using a well- known approximation formula from the finance literature, we implement SGBM with one basis function and show that it is around six times faster than the equivalent Longstaff–Schwartz method. The two methods agree in price to one basis point, and the SGBM path estimator gives better (higher) prices than the Longstaff–Schwartz prices. A closer examination shows that inaccuracies in the approximation formula introduce a small bias into the SGBM direct estimator. 1 Introduction The LIBOR Market Model (LMM) is an interest rate market model. It owes much of its popularity to the fact that it is consistent with Black’s pricing formulas for simple interest rate derivatives such as caps and swaptions, see, for example, [3]. Under LMM all forward rates are modelled as individual processes, which typically results in a high dimensional model. Consequently when pricing more complex instruments under LMM, Monte Carlo simulation is usually used. When pricing products with early-exercise features, such as Bermudan swaptions, a method is required to determine the early-exercise policy. The most popular approach to this is the Longstaff–Schwartz Method (LSM) [8]. When time is discrete (as is usually the case in numerical schemes) Bellman’s backward induction principle says that the price of the option at any exercise time is the maximum of the spot payoff and the so-called contin- uation value.

    Activity Report 2014 s a world-leading financial center building on a A rich history, Switzerland’s financial sector has the natural ambition of housing a world-leading research and training center in banking and finance. The Swiss Finance Institute is the product of this ambition. Established at the initiative of the Swiss Bankers Association, it is a private foundation created in 2006 with the support of the Swiss banking and finance community, the Swiss stock exchange, the Swiss Confederation, the Swiss National Science Foundation, and several Swiss universities with the aim of advancing research activities in finance and executive education in the banking and finance sector. The Swiss Finance Institute encompasses three pre-existing foundations – the International Center for Financial Asset Management and Engineering (FAME), the Swiss Banking School, and the Stiftung Banking und Finance an der Universität Zürich. This merger has led to the creation of one of the major European providers of research, doctoral training, and advanced executive education in banking and finance.

A Random Field LIBOR Market Model Tao L. Wu∗and Shengqiang Xu January 1, 2014 A random field LIBOR market model (RFLMM) is proposed by extend- ing the LIBOR market model, with interest rate uncertainties modeled via a random field. First, closed-form formulas for pricing caplet and swaption are derived. Then the random field LIBOR market model is integrated with the lognormal-mixture model to capture the implied volatility skew/smile. Finally, the model is calibrated to cap volatility surface and swaption volatil- ities. Numerical results show that the random field LIBOR market model can potentially outperform the LIBOR market model in capturing caplet volatility smile and the pricing of swaptions, in addition to possessing other advantages documented in the previous literature (no need of frequent re- calibration or to specify the number of factors in advance). 1 Introduction In this paper we extend the LIBOR market model (LMM) by describing forward rate uncertainties as a random field.

Lesniewski Interest Rate Volatility The LMM methodology Dynamics of the SABR-LMM model Covariance structure of SABR-LMM The LMM methodology The main shortcoming of short rate models is that they do not allow for close calibration to the entire volatility cube. This is not a huge concern on a trading desk, where locally calibrated term structure models allow for accurate pricing and executing trades. It is, however, a concern for managers of large portfolios of fixed income securities (such as mortgage backed securities) which have exposures to various segments of the curve and various areas of the vol cube. It is also relevant in enterprise level risk management in large financial institutions where consistent risk aggregation across businesses and asset classes is important. A methodology that satisfies these requirements is the LIBOR market model (LMM) methodology, and in particular its stochastic volatility extensions. That comes at a price: LMM is less tractable than some of the popular short rate models. It also tends to require more resources than those models. We will discuss a natural extension of stochastic volatility LMM, namely the SABR-LMM model.
