We present efficient simulation procedures for pricing barrier options when the underlying security price follows a geometric Brownian motion with jumps. Metwally and Atiya [2002] developed a simulation approach for pricing knock-out options in the same setting, but no variance reduction was...

This paper presents an overview of the efficient Monte Carlo counterparty credit risk (CCR) estimation framework recently developed by Ghamami and Zhang (2014). We focus on the estimation of credit value adjustment (CVA), one of the most widely used and regulatory-driven counterparty credit risk...

Counterparty credit risk (CCR), a key driver of the 2007-08 credit crisis, has become one of the main focuses of the major global and U.S. regulatory standards. Financial institutions invest large amounts of resources employing Monte Carlo simulation to measure and price their counterparty...
