hjmprice - Instrument prices from HJM interest-rate tree

Syntax

Price = hjmprice(HJMTree, InstSet, Options)

Arguments

HJMTree

Heath-Jarrow-Morton tree sampling a forward-rate process. See hjmtree for information on creating HJMTree.

InstSet

Variable containing a collection of instruments. Instruments are categorized by type. Each type can have different data fields. The stored data field is a row vector or string for each instrument.

Options

(Optional) Derivatives pricing options structure created with derivset.

Description

Price = hjmprice(HJMTree, InstSet, Options) computes arbitrage-free prices for instruments using an interest-rate tree created with hjmtree. A subset of NINST instruments from a financial instrument variable, InstSet, are priced.

Price is a NINST-by-1 vector of prices for each instrument. The prices are computed by backward dynamic programming on the interest-rate tree. If an instrument cannot be priced, NaN is returned.

PriceTree is a MATLAB structure of trees containing vectors of instrument prices and accrued interest, and a vector of observation times for each node.

PriceTree.PBush contains the clean prices.

PriceTree.AIBush contains the accrued interest.

PriceTree.tObs contains the observation times.

hjmprice handles instrument types: 'Bond', 'CashFlow', 'OptBond', 'OptEmBond', 'Fixed', 'Float', 'Cap', 'Floor', 'Swap'. See instadd to construct defined types.

Examples

Load the HJM tree and instruments from the data file deriv.mat. Price the cap and bond instruments contained in the instrument set.

load deriv.mat; 
HJMSubSet = instselect(HJMInstSet,'Type', {'Bond', 'Cap'}); 

instdisp(HJMSubSet)

Index  Type  CouponRate Settle      Maturity     Period  Name ... 
1      Bond  0.04       01-Jan-2000 01-Jan-2003  1       4% bond  
2      Bond  0.04       01-Jan-2000 01-Jan-2004  2       4% bond

[Price, PriceTree] = hjmprice(HJMTree, HJMSubSet)

Warning: Not all cash flows are aligned with the tree. Result will 
be approximated.

Price =

   97.5280
    6.2831

PriceTree = 

    FinObj: 'HJMPriceTree'
     PBush: {1x5 cell}
    AIBush: {1x5 cell}
      tObs: [0 1 2 3 4]

You can use treeviewer to see the prices of these three instruments along the price tree.
