Presented at Global Derivatives Trading & Risk Management Conference | May 2016

This presentation entitled “Solving Negative Rates Challenges: The Free Boundary SABR and the Mixture SABR” was given by Dr. Alexandre Antonov of Numerix at the Global Derivatives Trading & Risk Management Conference in Budapest on May 11th.

The presentation addresses:

• Comparison of SABR Simulated rates with the historical time-series
• Free Boundary SABR (exact analytical solution for zero correlation and accurate approximation for the general correlation)
• Normal Free SABR (exact analytical solution for general correlation)
• Mixture SABR (mixing zero correlation Free SABR with the normal Free one: arbitrage free analytical solution via 1D integral)
• Numerical results for joint calibration to swaptions and CMSs
