QUANTO INTEREST-RATE EXCHANGE OPTIONS IN A CROSS-CURRENCY LIBOR MARKET MODEL

Journal Title: Asian Economic and Financial Review - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 5

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to price quanto interest-rate exchange options (QIREOs) based on a practical and easy-to-use interest-rate model. According to the payoff structure of QIREOs, the cross-currency LIBOR market model (CLMM), in which the initial LIBOR market model (LMM) is extended from a single-currency economy to a cross-currency economy, is suitable to be adopted to price four different types of quanto interest-rate exchange options in this article. Our pricing formulae represent the general formulae in the framework of the CLMM. Hedging strategies are also provided for practical implementation.
