We propose and empirically study a pricing model for convertible bonds based on Monte Carlo simulation. The method uses parametric representations of the early exercise decisions and consists of two stages. Pricing convertible bonds with the proposed Monte Carlo approach allows us to better...

We investigate the pricing performance of three convertible bond pricing models on the French convertible bond market using daily market prices. We examine a component model separating the convertible bond into a bond and option component, a method based on the Margrabe model for pricing...

We propose a pricing model for convertible bonds based on Monte Carlo simulation that is more flexible than previous lattice-based methods because it allows to better capture the dynamics of the underlying state variables. Furthermore, the model is able to deal with embedded American-style put...

This paper proposes a pricing model that values convertible bonds with Monte Carlo simulation. The optimal exercise boundaries for the embedded American-style conversion, call, and put options are inferred from the conditional expected value of continuation which is obtained by least-squares...
