This paper presents an approach to a macroprudential stress test for the euro area banking system, comprising the 91 largest euro area credit institutions across 19 countries. The approach involves modelling banks’ reactions to changing economic conditions. It also examines the effects of...

We consider multi-factor Levy models based on SDEs driven by alpha-stable Levy processes.Using change of time method for Levy-based stochastic integrals we show how to pricing many of financial and energy derivatives

In these lectures' notes I would like to introduce forwards, futures and options, and to review some results on Black-Scholes-73 and Black-76 models for positive prices, and also on alternatives models for negative prices for option valuation of futures contracts.I will focus on the first model...

The Paris agreement in 2016 marks a global effort to limit the increase in temperature. In that spirit, the Federal Government of Canada introduced a carbon tax to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The main goal of this paper is to define the correct approach to carbon pricing. Following the...

In this paper, we study various new Hawkes processes. Specifically, we construct general compound Hawkes processes and investigate their properties in limit order books. With regards to these general compound Hawkes processes, we prove a Law of Large Numbers (LLN) and a Functional Central Limit...

In this paper, we introduce an extension to the LIBOR Market model that is suitable to incorporate both sudden market shocks as well as changes in the overall economic climate into the interest rate dynamics. This is achieved by substituting the simple diffusion process of the original LIBOR...

In this paper, we model financial markets with semi-Markov volatilities and price covarinace and correlation swaps for this markets. Numerical evaluations of vari- nace, volatility, covarinace and correlations swaps with semi-Markov volatility are presented as well. The novelty of the paper lies...

In this paper, we price covariance and correlation swaps for financial markets with Markov-modulated volatilities. As an example, we consider stochastic volatility driven by a two-state continuous Markov chain. In this case, numerical examples are presented for VIX and VXN volatility indices...
