....the problem of no short maturity credit spreads. Furthermore by allowing for stochastic interest rates one may better calibrate to existing term structures of interest rates. The model supposes that asset values V (t) follow a geometric Brownian motion while interest rates r(t) follow a Vasicek [15] process with movements that are correlated with the stock. Specically it 8 is supposed that dV = rV dt VdW V (t) dr = r) dt dW r (t) dW V dW r = dt At the rst passage time of V to K the default threshold, we have a default in which the recovery level is some constant write down of ....

Given that we are interested here in the optimal hedge and not in the optimal distribution of the dividend in time, we will assume r = #. In the case r the distributed amount would clearly be a function of time. See Vasicek [15]. Similar modelisations of the exchange rate behavior could also be implemented. If the volatility is a deterministic function of the exchange rate, and such that #(x) # # x, one obtains a square root process, which has been used for example by Cox, Ingersoll and Ross [5] to model the evolution ....

The prices of contingent claims are then derived by imposing the condition that there are no arbitrage opportunities in the economy between bonds of different maturity. Vasicek s (1977) model is an example of a single factor no arbitrage model in which the whole term structure depends on a single stochastic variable or factor, in this case the short interest rate. It employs an arbitrage argument in relation to the expected return on bonds of differing maturity. The Brennan and ....

This paper uses the Vasicek [1977] model to study the performance of kernel density estimates of the ergodic distribution of the instantaneous spot rate.

....with more extensive sets of timedependent parameters, which they use to match current bond yields, and possibly other asset prices, exactly. To practitioners, the logic of this choice is clear: the parsimonious models used by academics are inadequate for practical use. The four parameters of the Vasicek (1977) and Cox Ingersoll Ross (1985) models, for example, can be chosen to match five points on the yield curve (the four parameters plus the short rate) but do not reproduce the complete yield curve to the degree of accuracy required by market participants. Even complex, multifactor models cannot ....

....later, we start using a new process that is not consistent with the old one. Dybvig argued that these changes in parameter values through time implied that the framework itself was inappropriate. We examine the practitioners procedure in a relatively simple theoretical setting, a variant of Vasicek s (1977) one factor Gaussian interest rate model that we refer to as the benchmark theory. Our thought experiment is to apply models with time dependent drift and volatility parameters to asset prices generated by this theory. We judge the models to be useful, in this setting, if they are able to ....

....research area of asset pricing is modeling the term structure. Most of the recent term structure models have been developed in continuous time. There are two main approaches to modeling the term structure in continuous time: the noarbitrage approach, and the general equilibrium approach. Vasicek (1977) showed how to price zero coupon default free bonds of di#erent maturities using the no arbitrage approach used in option pricing of Black and Scholes (1973) for a given stochastic process for the spot interest rate. The approach prices all bonds on the basis of a finite number of state variables. ....

The exact functional form of the short rate SDE is of critical importance for models of the term structure.

His derivation was su#ciently general to allow for any di#usion type of SDE for the short rate and then proceeded to derive closed form bond process for the special case of an Ornstein Uhlenbeck process for the ....

This parsimonious parameterization is particularly valuable for the implementation and empirical testing of the models. These single factor models yield an affine ....

A way out is to introduce the market price of risk : as shown by Vasicek [23], the probability measure over which the average (13) is performed is not necessarily the historical average. Arbitrage arguments allow a change of measure , which in the present case simply amounts to correcting the true (i.e historical) value of r 0 to an effective value r 0 ls, where l is ....
