Titelbeschreibung

This book presents a major innovation in the interest rate space. It explains a financially motivated extension of the LIBOR Market model which accurately reproduces the prices for plain vanilla hedging instruments (swaptions and caplets) of all strikes and maturities produced by the SABR model. The authors show how to accurately recover the whole of the SABR smile surface using their extension of the LIBOR market model. This is not just a new model, this is a new way of option pricing that takes into account the need to calibrate as accurately as possible to the plain vanilla reference hedging instruments and the need to obtain prices and hedges in reasonable time whilst reproducing a realistic future evolution of the smile surface. It removes the hard choice between accuracy and time because the framework that the authors provide reproduces today's market prices of plain vanilla options almost exactly and simultaneously gives a reasonable future evolution for the smile surface. The authors take the SABR model as the starting point for their extension of the LMM because it is a good model for European options. The problem, however with SABR is that it treats each European option in isolation and the processes for the various underlyings (forward and swap rates) do not talk to each other so it isn't obvious how to relate these processes into the dynamics of the whole yield curve. With this new model, the authors bring the dynamics of the various forward rates and stochastic volatilities under a single umbrella. To ensure the absence of arbitrage they derive drift adjustments to be applied to both the forward rates and their volatilities. When this is completed, complex derivatives that depend on the joint realisation of all relevant forward rates can now be priced.

KENNETH MCKAY is a PhD student at the London School of Economics following a first class honours degree in Mathematics and Economics from the LSE and an MPhil in Finance from Cambridge University. He has been working on interest rate derivative-related research with Riccardo Rebonato for the past year. RICHARD WHITE holds a doctorate in Particle Physics from Imperial College London, and a first class honours degree in Physics from Oxford University. He held a Research Associate position at Imperial College before joining RBS in 2004 as a Quantitative Analyst. His research interests include option pricing with Levy Processes, Genetic Algorithms for portfolio optimisation, and Libor Market Models with stochastic volatility. He is currently taking a fortuitously timed sabbatical to pursue his joint passion for travel and scuba diving.

Back cover copy

the SABR/LIBOR Market Model PRICING, CALIBRATION AND HEDGING FOR COMPLEX INTEREST-RATE DERIVATIVES "This is the best of Rebonato's books. The conversational spirit of the previous manuscripts is here pleasantly retained. But, the value added is the mathematical rigor that permeates the description of the proposed model. Definitely a must." "Fabio Mercurio, Senior Quantitative Analyst, Bloomberg New York "A book that has all the hallmarks of Riccardo Rebonato: rigorous theory, up-to-date market knowledge, practical application, and empirical testing to destruction. This time, with co-authors, he applies himself to the most central banking market: LIBOR-related contracts." "Ian Cooper, Professor of Finance, London Business School "In this concise book Riccardo Rebonato and his co-authors introduce a new financially motivated model combining the best features of the Libor Market and SABR models. The authors provide a useful roadmap to pricing, calibrating, and hedging interest rate derivatives in the new framework. The book will be of interest to practitioners and academics alike."
