Sinopsis

An invaluable resource for quantitative analysts who need to run models that assist in option pricing and risk management. This concise, practical hands on guide to Monte Carlo simulation introduces standard and advanced methods to the increasing complexity of derivatives portfolios. Ranging from pricing more complex derivatives, such as American and Asian options, to measuring Value at Risk, or modelling complex market dynamics, simulation is the only method general enough to capture the complexity and Monte Carlo simulation is the best pricing and risk management method available.
The book is packed with numerous examples using real world data and is supplied with a CD to aid in the use of the examples.

De la contraportada

Monte Carlo Methods in Finance is an important reference for those working in investment banks, insurance and strategic management consultancy. Of particular importance are the many known variance reduction methods, and they are duly covered, not only in their own right, but also with respect to their potential combinations, and in the direct context of realistic applications. Most notably, the issue of the reliability of low-discrepancy numbers in high dimensions is discussed in detail. The book also contains an introduction to the theory of copulæ as an extension to the modelling of correlation of financial securities. An entire chapter is dedicated to the evaluation of interest rate derivatives in the Brace-Gatarek-Musiela/Jamshidian framework by the aid of fast-convergence Monte Carlo simulations. What's more, for the first time, this book also gives a description of the construction of non-recombining trees. Whilst non-recombining trees are usually not viable in a production environment, they often are the very tool of last resort when Monte Carlo approximations to problems such as Bermudan swaptions are to be tested, and the tricks for the construction of non-recombining trees presented in this book are invaluable for that purpose.
