This paper models ContinuousWorkout Mortgages (CWMs) in an economic environment with refinancings and prepayments by employing a market-observable variable such as the house price index of the pertaining locality. Our main results include: (a) explicit modelling of repayment and interest-only...

The aim of this paper is to establish a basic framework of financing with a highly flexible instrument, of Participating Mortgages (PMs), to improve the efficiency of the financial system. We distinguish these from convertible mortgages and derive closed-form solutions to price a whole framework...

This paper distinguishes Participating Mortgages (PMs) from Convertible Mortgages. We study variants of PMs to demonstrate that they have the potential of improving the efficiency of a financial system. We resort to closed-form formulae to price profit caps and floors identified in variants of...
