Using a novel regulatory dataset of fully identified derivatives transactions, this paper provides the first comprehensive analysis of the structure of the euro area interest rate swap (IRS) market after the start of the mandatory clearing obligation. Our dataset contains 1.7 million bilateral...

In this paper we formulate the Risk Management Control problem in the interest rate area as a constrained stochastic portfolio optimization problem. The utility that we use can be any continuous function and based on the viscosity theory, the unique solution of the problem is guaranteed. The...

We follow Mercurio's extension of the LIBOR market model with stochastic Basis spreads and model the joint evolution of forward rates belonging to the discount curve and corresponding spreads with FRA rates. We consider Heston stochastic-volatility dynamics and show how to calculate the swaption...

We propose a term structure function, a two-factor variance process and a return process to jointly price SPX and VIX derivatives. The distinctive feature of the variance model is that the factor coefficients are time-varying and they are bonded with the term structure of variance swaps. The...
