Interest rate derivatives pricing when the short rate is a continuous time finite state Markov process
The purpose of this study is to price interest rate derivatives by assuming the spot rate a continuous-time Markov chain with a finite state space. Our model is inspired by the paper Filipovic’ and Zabczyk [5]; we extend their deterministic discrete time structure by one with random times and consider also the multifactor case. We are able to price with the same approach various interest rate d...
متن کاملMultifactor Interest Rate Dynamics and Their Implications for Bond Pricing
This paper studies the importance of the most commonly used factors in models of the term structure and contingent claims prices, as well as the importance of one seldom used factor. To this end, the paper develops a continuous-time, four-factor model of the term structure. The factors include the instantaneous interest rate, its volatility, its long-run mean, and a factor that is \independent"...
متن کاملA comprehensive analysis of the short-term interest-rate dynamics
This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the short-term interest-rate dynamics based on three different data sets and two flexible parametric specifications. The significance of nonlinearity in the short-rate drift declines with increasing maturity for the interest-rate series used in the study. Using a flexible diffusion specification and incorporating GARCH volatility and non-normal in...
متن کاملPricing Interest Rate Options
We price moneyness-based portfolio returns on the LIBOR futures options in an Intertemporal CAPM framework as an extension of the pricing kernel approach. In contrast to existing studies for pricing index options, our results show that only the real interest rate is significant in the pricing kernel for LIBOR options. The polynomial pricing kernel with linear interpretation outperforms the iso-...
متن کاملNonlinear Mean Reversion in the Short-Term Interest Rate
Using a new Bayesian method for the analysis of diffusion processes, this article finds that the nonlinear drift in interest rates found in a number of previous studies can be confirmed only under prior distributions that are best described as informative. The assumption of stationarity, which is common in the literature, represents a nontrivial prior belief about the shape of the drift functio...
