Implementation of Bivariate Unspanned Stochastic Volatility Models
Unspanned stochastic volatility term structure models have gained popularity in the literature. This dissertation focuses on the challenges of implementing the simplest case – bivariate unspanned stochastic volatility models, where there is one state variable controlling the term structure, and one …

Pricing of Asian temperature risk
… underestimates WD prices. We study the MPR structure as a time dependent object with concentration on emerging markets in Asia. We find that Asian Temperatures (Tokyo, Osaka, Beijing, Teipei) are normal in the sense that the driving stochastics are close to a Wiener Process. The regression …

Calibrating the LIBOR market model to swaptions with an extension for illiquidity in South Africa
… rate volatilities. These volatilities are then determined analytically using the Rectangular Cascade Calibration Algorithm from Brigo and Morini (2006). The calibration generates a stable volatility term structure with the instantaneous forward rate volatilities being positive and real. Through an …

Analytical Solutions of the SABR Stochastic Volatility Model
… to the practice of option trading, in which the volatility parameter of the Black-Scholes-Merton's model has become the market "language'' of quoting option prices. Despite its tremendous success, the Black-Scholes-Merton model has exhibited a few well-known deficiencies, the most important of …
