The Industry’s Only Independent Solution for Hybrids

Through our experience in cross-asset modeling, the Numerix quantitative research team has developed a unique hybrid model framework that produces accurate valuations for instruments consisting of multiple underlyings, such as structured notes and variable annuities. This process requires a market-consistent representation of correlation among underlyings, which we achieve through a joint calibration that incorporates multiple stochastic processes.

Constructing a Hybrid Model
  1. The user selects the best model for each underlying
  2. Each “component” model is individually calibrated before being added to the hybrid framework
  3. The user specifies a correlation matrix that links each volatility factor
  4. A joint calibration is applied when the hybrid model is built
The Numerix Hybrid Model Framework

Select desired models based on underlyings, and use them as building blocks for the hybrid model

Examples of Covered Instruments
  • Convertible bonds
  • Mixed basket deals containing underlyings from multiple asset classes
  • Hybrid products of any complexity, with arbitrary payoff and any underlyings covered by the Numerix model library
