Hands-on quantitative techniques for the FX derivatives markets
Modeling Foreign Exchange Options provides practical instruction on the pricing and implementation of FX structured products for the FX market. Written by an internationally renowned academic and practitioner, this book goes beyond the basic Black Scholes equation to price options using volatility smile and surface construction and consistent stochastic volatility models (SLV), Monte Carlo techniques, and finite difference techniques. Coverage focuses on the most popular and real-life tested FX derivatives models, its implementation issues, describing the mathematical basis of each model and showing you how to calibrate the model to the product for the most accurate result. You learn why SLV is superior to traditional vanna-volga approaches in terms of consistency and firm-wide model governance. From industry standards to the latest techniques out of academic publications, this helpful guide explores the broad range of FX derivatives pricing tools and methods at your disposal.
While the author's previous book, FX Options and Structured Products, delves into the structure and sales side of exotic options, this book turns to the quantitative to provide clear guidance through more complex operations that improve accuracy and provide more nuanced information.
