This paper proposes an original approach for backtesting systemic risk measures. This backtesting approach makes it …

This study deals with the pricing and hedging of inflation-indexed bonds. Under foreign exchange analogy we model the … for the factor process. Then, we perform a novel hedging analysis where our objective is to replicate an indexed bond of a … given maturity by trading a portfolio of nominal bonds. This analysis leads to a hedging criterion based on a set of …

We consider the problem of option hedging in a market with proportional transaction costs. Since super-replication is … very costly in such markets, we replace perfect hedging with an expected loss constraint. Asymptotic analysis for small …

We introduce a novel class of credit risk models in which the drift of the survival process of a firm is a linear function of the factors. The prices of defaultable bonds and credit default swaps (CDS) are linear-rational in the factors. The price of a CDS option can be uniformly approximated by...

We investigate the compensation of counterparty exposure in the prices of structured products. Our analysis reveals that product issuers do not compensate retail investors for counterparty exposure before the Lehman default. Post-Lehman, retail prices no longer neglect this risk. We also measure...

The internal ratings-based (IRB) approach maps banks’ risk profiles more adequately than the standardized approach. After switching to IRB, banks’ risk-weighted asset (RWA) densities are thus expected to diverge, especially across countries with different supervisory strictness and risk...

This paper proposes a machine learning approach to estimate physical forward default intensities. Default probabilities are computed using artificial neural networks to estimate the intensities of the inhomogeneous Poisson processes governing default process. The major contribution to previous...

We identify the effects of negative interest rate policies on bank behavior using difference-in differences identification and data on all Swiss banks. First, we find that going negative can interrupt not only the pass-through from policy to deposit rates, but also that to mortgage rates....
