Engineering BGM

From simple to more sophisticated versions of the BGM model, this book offers a range of methods that can be programmed into production code to suit readers requirements. It first introduces the standard lognormal flat BGM model and then focuses on the shifted version to develop basic ideas about construction, change of measure, correlation, calibration, simulation, timeslicers (lattices), pricing, delta hedging, barriers, Bermudans, and vega hedging. Subsequent chapters address cross-economy BGM, the adaptation of the BJM model to inflation, a simple tractable stochastic volatility version of BGM, and Brazilian options suitable for BGM analysis.
