developed for pricing real estate derivatives with stochastic interest rate. To obtain a computationally simple binomial tree … used to enhance the convergence of the discrete binomial lattice models to continuous models when pricing European options …. In addition, our smooth convergent models can also be applied to pricing American options …

We study the determinants of the subprime mortgage loan spread, with a particular focus on funding liquidity and default-liquidity interaction effects. We find that sector-level as well as macro funding liquidity provision affected subprime loan rates, explaining a significant portion of the...

Housing decisions depend critically on the supply of long-term rental housing, yet surprisingly few studies examine the determinants of this supply. Based on term structure theories of asset prices and extrapolative beliefs, we hypothesize that housing market conditions shape the term structure...

This paper develops a model and estimate simultaneously the joint dynamics of default-free and defaultable bond term structures.

This paper studies the term structure implications of a simple structural economy in which the representative agent displays ambiguity aversion, modeled by Multiple Priors Recursive Utility. Bond excess returns reflect a premium for ambiguity, which is observationally distinct from the risk...

This paper studies modelling and existence issues for market models of stochastic implied volatility in a continuous-time framework with one stock, one bank account and a family of European options for all maturities with a fixed payoff function h. We first characterize absence of arbitrage in...

In this paper, we present a model for the joint stochastic evolution of the cumulative loss process of a credit portfolio and of its probability distribution. At any given time, the loss distribution of the portfolio is represented using forward transition rates, i.e. the transition rates of a...

This paper provides regime-switching stochastic volatility extensions of the LIBOR market model. First, the instantaneous forward LIBOR volatility is modulated by a continuous time homogeneous Markov chain. In a second parameterization, the volatility is modelled by a square root process with a...

The challenge of international term structure models is to simultaneously account for the properties of interest rate term structures and foreign exchange rates within an arbitrage-free framework. We extend the quadratic term structure models proposed in Leippold and Wu (2002) to multiple...
