Accounting requires the ability to forecast conduit administration fees. a simple stationary lognormal model for the fees is presented. Initially, the stationarity of the sweep fees is tested by measuring the level of mean reversion. Using a Dickey-Fuller statistical test the conduits are checked for approximate stationarity. Next, assuming the…[Read more]

Study and edition of the Complete Villancicos of Padre Antonio Soler (1729-1783), Chapel Master of Escorial Monastery in Spain

The article presents a model for pricing digital-type barrier options on baskets of equity stocks. Within each payment period, there is a series of basket observation times. If at each observation time we observe that all basket constituent stocks remain between their lower and upper barriers, we receive a fixed coupon amount on the payment date…[Read more]

We present a model for pricing an exotic swap where one party receives a fixed amount and makes a series of variable payments at the end of each pre-defined calculation period. The variable payments can be modeled as Asian put option payoffs on the weighted sum of two respective commodity basket levels. Furthermore, each basket level consists of a…[Read more]
