Abstract:
We provide an efficient and unbiased Monte-Carlo simulation for the computation of bond prices in a structural default model with jumps. The algorithm requires the evaluation of integrals with the density of the firstpassage time of a Brownian bridge as the integrand. Metwally and Atiya (2002) suggest an approximation of these integrals. We improve this approximation in terms of precision. From a modeler?s point of view, we show that a structural model with jumps is able to endogenously generate...     »
