Chapter Iv - Interest Rate Models

  • JOSEPH G. CONLON
چکیده

Observe that the forward rate F (t, T0, T1) and the swap rate R(t) are known today (time t = 0) from today’s yield curve, but for t > 0 they are unknown and are therefore random variables. In order to value interest rate derivatives we need to model these random variables. To see how we might go about this we consider one of the simplest interest rate derivativesan interest rate cap on a loan. Suppose the loan is as described above, so money is borrowed at time T0 and repaid at time TN with interest rate payments at times T1, T2, .., TN . The interest rate is set at time Tj−1 for the period (Tj−1, Tj) to be L(Tj−1, Tj) where L(t, t ′) is the floating rate available at time t for borrowing at t with repayment at time t′ > t. If K is the interest rate cap then the contribution to the cost of the cap for the interest period (Tj−1, Tj) is

Performance Analysis of Dynamic and Static Facility Layouts in a Stochastic Environment

In this paper, to cope with the stochastic dynamic (or multi-period) problem, two new quadratic assignment-based mathematical models corresponding to the dynamic and static approaches are developed. The product demands are presumed to be dependent uncertain variables with normal distribution having known expectation, variance, and covariance that change from one period to the next one, randomly...

Chapter 10 : Financial Markets and Monetary Policy ( Monetary Theory and Policy , 3 rd ed . )

Central banks in the major industrialized economies implement policy by intervening in the money market to achieve a target level for a short-term interest rate.1 Why central banks use a short-term interest rate as a policy instrument, and how they achieve the targeted value they set for this rate are topics to be discussed in chapter 11. The focus in this chapter is on the role of …nancial mar...

Interest rate and output gap: Does central bank credibility matter?

This paper studies the effects of central bank credibility on nominal interest rate and output gap on 17 inflation targeting (IT) developing countries using Instrument Variables (IV) over a period that spans 24 years (1996-2019). In the first stage, using new Keynesian model is obtained “Credibility loss” index to measure the importance of central bank past performance and its deviation from it...

Pricing Defaultable bonds and CDS with PDE methods

The market for credit derivatives is growing rapidly. The credit derivative market’s global size was estimated to be $100 billion to $200 billion in 1996. The British Bankers Association estimated that the size was $1.6 trillion in 2001. Now the size is about $62 trillion [10]. The demand is strong because credit derivatives provide varieties that can fit different clients. The fundamental cred...

Applications of Interest Rate Models

Main purpose of this paper is to describe the background of interest rate modeling, i.e. introduce main division of interest rate models, explain what is the instantaneous interest rate and what is its suitable representative. We will deeply focus on Vaš́ıček and Hull-White model and analyze problem of the calibration of these models. Introduction It is well known that interest rates and their s...
