In the first part of this paper (Antonov-Bianchetti, 2013) we developed the theoretical framework for pricing financial instruments under multiple sources of funding, leading to a non-linear pricing PDE and to Funding Value Adjustment (FVA).In this second part we develop the numerical framework...

We present an affine arbitrage-free dynamic term-structure model based on a representation of instantaneous forward rates as sum of exponentials. The model, which is Gaussian and belongs to the class of Heath-Jarrow-Morton-type models, is intuitively appealing as a suitable linear combination of...

We review the main changes in the interbank market after the financial crisis started in August 2007. In particular, we focus on the fixed income market and we analyse the most relevant empirical evidences regarding the divergence of the existing basis between interbank rates with different...

We revisit the problem of pricing and hedging plain vanilla single-currency interest rate derivatives using multiple distinct yield curves for market coherent estimation of discount factors and forward rates with different underlying rate tenors. Within such double-curve-single-currency...

This study empirically examines the impact of the interaction between market and default risk on corporate credit spreads. Using credit default swap (CDS) spreads, we find that average credit spreads decrease in GDP growth rate, but increase in GDP growth volatility and jump risk in the equity...

In this paper, we present a model for the term structure of interest rates, which integrates the existing multifactor and time dependent approaches of term structure models. This integrated model uses the time series data so that it has macroeconomic implications such as interest rate volatility...

A variety of realistic economic considerations make jump- diffusion models of interest rate dynamics an appealing modeling choice to price interest rate contingent claims. However, exact closed form solutions for bond prices when interest rates follow a mixed jump-diffusion process have proved...

We investigate the risk of holding credit default swaps (CDS) in the trading book and compare the Value at Risk (VaR) of a CDS position to the VaR for investing in the respective firm's equity using a sample of CDS - stock price pairs for 86 actively traded firms over the period from March 2003...

This paper applies regression analysis to investigate the fundamental factors of the variation of CDS index tranches. The sample comprises daily data on the tranche premia of the European iTraxx and North American CDX index from the start of the market in summer 2004 to January 2008. I estimate...
