In this paper we present a generic method for the Monte-Carlo pricing of (generalized) auto-callable products (aka. trigger products), i.e., products for which the payout function features a discontinuity with a (possibly) stochastic location (the trigger) and value (the payout).The Monte-Carlo...

Various drift approximations for the displaced-discussion LIBOR market model in the spot measure are compared. The advantages, disadvantages and implementation choices for each of predictor-corrector and the Glasserman-Zhao method are discussed. Numerical tests are carried out and we conclude...

Bayesian inference relies heavily on numerical Markov chain Monte carlo (MCMC) methods for the estimation of the typically intractable high-dimensional posterior distributions and requires specific inputs. In this paper we introduce a new general and efficient numerical approach to address...

A key requirement of any equity hybrid derivatives pricing model is the ability to rapidly and accurately calibrate to vanilla option prices. To this end, we present two methods for calibrating a local volatility model under correlated stochastic interest rates. This is achieved by first fitting...

In this paper, we propose a new regression-based sub-simulation-free upper bound. The method is based on approximating the martingale component of the lower bound process. The convergence and tightness of this upper bound are analyzed. In addition, the implementation details and enhancement...
