  1. 1. Modelling Proxy Credit Cruves Using Recurrent Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Lucas Fageräng; Hugo Thoursie; [2023]
    Keywords : Deep Neural Networks; Credit Risk; Financial Modelling; LSTM; Credit Default Swaps; Credit Valuation Adjustment; Djupa Neurala Nätverk; Kreditrisk; Finansiell Modellering; LSTM; Kreditswappar; Kreditvärderingsjustering;

    Abstract : Since the global financial crisis of 2008, regulatory bodies worldwide have implementedincreasingly stringent requirements for measuring and pricing default risk in financialderivatives. Counterparty Credit Risk (CCR) serves as the measure for default risk infinancial derivatives, and Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) is the pricing method used toincorporate this default risk into derivatives prices.

  3. 2. Volatility Curves of Incomplete Markets

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Kateryna Chechelnytska; [2020-06-23]
    Keywords : Implied volatility; Incomplete markets; Trinomial option pricing model; Black-Scholes option pricing model; Risk-neutral probability;

    Abstract : The graph of the implied volatility of call options as a function of the strike price is called volatility curve. If the options market were perfectly described by the Black-Scholes model, the implied volatility would be independent of the strike price and thus the volatility curve would be a at horizontal line.

  4. 3. On the Proxy Modelling of Risk-Neutral Default Probabilities

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Edvin Lundström; [2020]
    Keywords : Counterparty Credit Risk; Credit Valuation Adjustment; CVA; Credit modelling; Reduced form model; Proxy model; Hazard rate; Cross-section model; Nomura model; Motpartsrisk; Kreditvärderingsjustering; CVA; Kreditmodellering; Proxymodellering; Nomuramodellen;

    Abstract : Since the default of Lehman Brothers in 2008, it has become increasingly important to measure, manage and price the default risk in financial derivatives. Default risk in financial derivatives is referred to as counterparty credit risk (CCR). The price of CCR is captured in Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA). READ MORE

  5. 4. Option Pricing using the Fast Fourier Transform Method

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikation

    Author : Abaynesh Berta; [2020]
    Keywords : Black-Scholes-Merton model; Characteristic function; Fast Fourier transform; Fourier Inverse Fourier transform; Option pricing;

    Abstract : The fast Fourier transform (FFT), even though it has been widely applicable in Physics and Engineering, it has become attractive in Finance as well for it’s enhancement of computational speed. Carr and Madan succeeded in implementing the FFT for pricing of an option. READ MORE
