The LIBOR Market Model has become one of the most popular models for pricing interest rate products. It is commonly believed that Monte-Carlo simulation is the only viable method available for the LIBOR Market Model. In this article, however, we propose a lattice approach to price interest rate products within the LIBOR Market Model by introducing a shifted forward measure and several novel fast drift approximation methods. This model should achieve the best performance without losing much accuracy. Moreover, the calibration is almost automatic and it is simple and easy to implement. Adding this model to the valuation toolkit is actually quite useful; especially for risk management or in the case there is a need for a quick turnaround.

<p>In this paper, we propose analytical valuation formulae for three types of quanto floating range notes based on the cross-currency LIBOR market model. The dynamics of forward LIBOR rates is a multifactor model that incorporates both the domestic and foreign interest rate process and the exchange rate process in a cross-currency environment. The derived formulae are analytically tractable and easy to implement in practice. The model parameters can be extracted directly from market quantities. We show that the empirical results are more accurate and robust than the results ofMonte Carlosimulation.</p>

We describe the Bond Market Model, a multi-factor interest rate term structure model, where it is possible to price with Black-like formulas the three classes of over-the-counter plain vanilla options. We derive the prices of caps/floors, bond options and swaptions. A comparison with Libor Market Model and Swap Market Model is discussed in detail, underlining advantages and limits of the different approaches.

In this paper an efficient calibration method for the multi-factor LIBOR Market Model (LMM) is proposed and is applied for the Japanese interest rate market. At first the joint calibration method in the cap and swaption market is demonstrated using a new parameterization for the correlation matrix in the LMM. Then we implement the proposed methodology for calibrating the Japanese cap and swaption markets, where the computational procedure is shown to be tractable and provides a practical estimation for the implied correlation matrix in the LMM. The empirical analysis also illustrates that Black's swaption volatilities through our calibration fit the market data almost exactly and that the estimated implied correlation matrix is smooth and stable.
