In this note the pricing of options on credit default swaps using the survival-measure -pricing technique is discussed. In particular, we derive amodification of the famous Black (1976) futures pricing formula which appliesto options on CDS, and show how other pricing formulae can be easily...

In the existing literature on barrier options, much effort has been exerted to ensureconvergence through placing the barrier in close proximity to, or directly onto, thenodes of the tree lattice. In this paper we show that this may not be necessary toachieve accurate option price...
