Computing Standardized Initial Margin Model Margin Valuation Adjustment (SIMM-MVA) requires the simulation of future sensitivities, but these are expensive to compute for callable products. This paper introduces a method which avoids nested calls to the pricing function, similar to the use of...

We generalize the algorithmic differentiation method proposed by Antonov (2016) from price Greeks to XVA Greeks. This method, named Backward Differentiation (BD), was developed in the context of computing price or PV Greeks for individual callable exotic trades.We start by treating cases where...

In this article, we study the algorithmic calculation of present values greeks for callable exotic instruments. The speed of greeks evaluations becomes important with recent initial margin rules, including the ISDA standard model SIMM, requiring sensitivity calculations for non-cleared deals...

This work contributes to the literature over time-changed processes in two directions. Firstly, this is the first thorough study of theoretical properties of Lévy processes, subordinated by a self-excited random clock. The process observed on this new time scale, called clustered Lévy process,...

The advent of close to zero or even negative rates in major currencies has made the traditional lognormal Black-Scholes-Merton volatility as a representation of option prices in the interest rate market obsolete. Recently more and more cap/floor and even swaption prices in major currencies are...

We propose a new methodology for obtaining arbitrage free European option prices from a SABR-like parameterisation. The method consists of specifying the joint distribution of the volatility and underlying at a given expiry and requires the calculation of a simple one-dimensional numerical...

We adopt a family of nonparametric Cressie-Read estimators to price options based on relative pricing using the underlying asset returns. We use option models with stochastic volatility and jumps to investigate the ability of each member in this family to price options with different moneynesses...

Based on the Partial Distribution (Feng Dai, 2001), a new model to price an asset (MPA) is given. Going a step further, this paper puts forward the Multivariate Partial Distribution (MPD) for the first time. By use of MPD, we could gain a new kind of model for pricing the group assets (MPGA), in...

We develop a new approach to identify model misspecifications based on Minimum Discrepancy (MD) projections that correct asset pricing models with the use of nonlinear functions of basis assets returns. These nonlinear corrections make our method more effective than the Hansen and Jagannathan...

In this paper, we present advanced analytical formulas for SABR model option pricing. The first technical result consists of a new exact formula for the zero correlation case. This closed form is a simple 2D integration of elementary functions, particularly attractive for numerical...
