Calibration accuracy of three variants of the Libor Market Model

1 December 2022

There is an increasing complexity of risk neutral valuation models in the insurance industry, along with a growing regulatory attention on them. In particular, regulators require the interest rate model to replicate observed market prices, a key driver of model complexity, especially in terms of number of parameters involved. To highlight the benefits of one particular model, we cover the following topics:

  • Analysis of market conditions for the three dates of interest
  • Overview of the three variants of the Libor market model
  • Comparison of the market consistent property of the three models
  • Refinement of the model with constant elasticity volatility
