Models of forward Libor and swap rates

Marek Rutkowski

Applied Mathematical Finance, 1999, vol. 6, issue 1, 29-60

Abstract: The backward induction approach is systematically used to produce various models of forward market rates. These include the lognormal model of forward Libor rates examined by Miltersen et al. and Brace et al., as well as the lognormal model of (fixed-maturity) forward swap rates, which was proposed by Jamshidian. The valuation formulae for European caps and swaptions are given. In the last section, the Eurodollar futures contracts and options are examined within the framework of the lognormal model of forward Libor rates.
