New formula revolutionizes pricing of interest rate swaptions and caps!
A new method for pricing swaptions and caps/floors under the LIBOR market model of interest rates with local-stochastic volatility models has been developed. This method uses drift-freezing and asymptotic expansion approaches to approximate prices accurately. The method is flexible and accurate, as shown in examples using CEVHeston LMM and Quadratic-Heston LMM models for numerical evaluation of swaption values in a caplet market.
