The modeling of tenor basis spreads is of central importance to CVA for tenor basis swaps. Such spreads are typically positive, suggesting a natural lower bound. We introduce a multi- curve Cheyette-style model with lower bounds enforced through level dependence in spread volatilities. The model...

We perform a historical analysis of selected rough volatility models to the SPX market. Tailoring the neural network pricing method of [27] to our needs, we train neural networks for the rough Heston model from [14], the rough Bergomi model from [4] as well as an extended version of the latter....

The financial technology revolution is a reality, as the financial world is gradually transforming into a digital domain of high-volume information and high-speed data transformation and processing. The more this transformation takes place, the more consumer and investor behaviour shifts towards...

To price mid-curve or spread options we need flexible joint distributions of two underlying rates with fixed marginals. A Copula approach is a standard method to produce such joint distributions.It has, however, several drawbacks, especially, a low number of free parameters. For example, the...

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been extremely successful in generating samples, from seemingly high dimensional probability measures. However, these methods struggle to capture the temporal dependence of joint probability distributions induced by time-series data. Furthermore, long...

To date, slowdown trends in the global 𝐶𝑂2 emissions registered in 2012 to 2015 argue due to the transformation from an industrial based on a less-energy intensive services oriented. Nevertheless, inconsistent and insufficient evidence of the role of sectoral composition in influencing the...

The great debates whether the transaction from rural to cities brings a better life or in the way around in Asia Countries have captured global attention. This study provides empirical evidences on the urbanization-CO2 emissions nexus for a sample of 34 Asian countries from 1990 to 2016 which...

This paper proposes a simple and crude way of approximating the XVA sensitivities. In short, the idea is simply to recycle the existing base simulated portfolio values for the bumped ones. This is done by re-simulating the risk factors for the bumped market and finding out which other base state...

A model/hedging performance is relatively poorly covered in the literature. This is particularly valid for general portfolios including both vanilla and exotic instruments. Practitioners generally use so called \pnl explain which measures whether portfolio price movements can be explained by...

In econometrics, long memory models for variance modeling like FIGARCH or FIAPARCH are characterized by a Fractional Differencing term. In order to estimate and apply these models, the infinite MacLaurin expansion of the differencing term has to be truncated at a certain level. We transfer the...
