Valuation Of Quanto Interest Rate Derivatives In a Cross-Currency LIBOR Market Model

Abstract

This article is to provide the analytical valuation formulae of quanto interest rate derivatives based on a cross-currency LIBOR market model. The dynamics of forward LIBOR rates is a multi-factor model which incorporates the domestic and foreign interest rates and the exchange rate processes in a cross-currency environment. Under the framework, the pricing formulae of quanto interest rate derivatives are easy to implement in practice and model parameters can be acquired easily from the market quantities. The empirical results are shown to be sufficiently accurate and robust as compared to Monte Carlo simulation.
