Details

A comprehensive collection that looks at the development of interest-rate models from since 1992.

  • Covers interest-rate analysis in the light of increased computer power
  • Investigates simulation processes, e.g. random walks and Monte Carlo simulation
  • Details the development of three new interest-rate model types including the Markov decision process, extensions and generalisations to the Heath-Jarrow-Morton model and market models
  • Makes accessible advanced models that enable modellers to ’complete the market’ more efficiently when calculating interest rate securities and options’ portfolios
  • Analysis of Heath-Jarrow-Morton extensions
