Book Description
Diese Dissertation stellt innovative Pricing- und Hedging-Modelle für eine breite Klasse von Versicherungsprodukten vor. Eine wichtige Neuerung im Hinblick auf die existierende Literatur ist dabei das Anwenden F-doppelt stochastischer Markovketten, was die Ausarbeitung der Formeln anhand stochastischer Intensitätsprozesse ermöglicht. Für die Prämienbestimmung für Arbeitslosigkeitsversicherungsprodukte werden die Intensitätsprozesse durch mikro- und makroökonomische stochastische Kovariablenprozesse generiert, um Einflüsse und Abhängigkeitsstrukturen innerhalb von Arbeitsmärkten zu untersuchen. Als Preisregel wird die „Real-World“-Preisformel des Benchmark-Ansatzes gewählt. Für die Bestimmung optimaler Hedgingstrategien werden quadratische Hedging-Methoden auf eine breite Klasse von Versicherungsprodukten, u.a. Lebensversicherungsprodukten, angewandt. Die Lösungen werden dabei anhand der Galtchouk-Kunita-Watanabe-Zerlegung jeweiligen der Schadenprozesse bestimmt.

Equity Derivatives and Hybrids
Author: Oliver Brockhaus
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1137349492
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Since the development of the Black-Scholes model, research on equity derivatives has evolved rapidly to the point where it is now difficult to cut through the myriad of literature to find relevant material. Written by a quant with many years of experience in the field this book provides an up-to-date account of equity and equity-hybrid (equity-rates, equity-credit, equity-foreign exchange) derivatives modeling from a practitioner's perspective. The content reflects the requirements of practitioners in financial institutions: Quants will find a survey of state-of-the-art models and guidance on how to efficiently implement them with regards to market data representation, calibration, and sensitivity computation. Traders and structurers will learn about structured products, selection of the most appropriate models, as well as efficient hedging methods while risk managers will better understand market, credit, and model risk and find valuable information on advanced correlation concepts. Equity Derivatives and Hybrids provides exhaustive coverage of both market standard and new approaches, including: -Empirical properties of stock returns including autocorrelation and jumps -Dividend discount models -Non-Markovian and discrete-time volatility processes -Correlation skew modeling via copula as well as local and stochastic correlation factors -Hybrid modeling covering local and stochastic processes for interest rate, hazard rate, and volatility as well as closed form solutions -Credit, debt, and funding valuation adjustment (CVA, DVA, FVA) -Monte Carlo techniques for sensitivities including algorithmic differentiation, path recycling, as well as multilevel. Written in a highly accessible manner with examples, applications, research, and ideas throughout, this book provides a valuable resource for quantitative-minded practitioners and researchers.

Exotic Options and Hybrids
Author: Mohamed Bouzoubaa
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0470688033
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 405
Book Description
The recent financial crisis brought to light many of the misunderstandings and misuses of exotic derivatives. With market participants on both the buy and sell-side having been found guilty of not understanding the products they were dealing with, never before has there been a greater need for clarification and explanation. Exotic Options and Hybrids is a practical guide to structuring, pricing and hedging complex exotic options and hybrid derivatives that will serve readers through the recent crisis, the road to recovery, the next bull market and beyond. Written by experienced practitioners, it focuses on the three main parts of a derivative’s life: the structuring of a product, its pricing and its hedging. Divided into four parts, the book covers a multitude of structures, encompassing many of the most up-to-date and promising products from exotic equity derivatives and structured notes to hybrid derivatives and dynamic strategies. Based on a realistic setting from the heart of the business, inside a derivatives operation, the practical and intuitive discussions of these aspects make these exotic concepts truly accessible. Adoptions of real trades are examined in detail, and all of the numerous examples are carefully selected so as to highlight interesting and significant aspects of the business. The introduction of payoff structures is accompanied by scenario analysis, diagrams and lifelike sample term sheets. Readers learn how to spot where the risks lie to pave the way for sound valuation and hedging of such products. There are also questions and accompanying discussions dispersed in the text, each exploited to illustrate one or more concepts from the context in which they are set. The applications, the strengths and the limitations of various models are highlighted, in relevance to the products and their risks, rather than the model implementations. Models are de-mystified in separately dedicated sections, but their implications are alluded to throughout the book in an intuitive and non-mathematical manner. By discussing exotic options and hybrids in a practical, non-mathematical and highly intuitive setting, this book will blast through the misunderstanding of exotic derivatives, enabling practitioners to fully understand and correctly structure, price and hedge theses products effectively, and stand strong as the only book in its class to make these “exotic” concepts truly accessible.
