Swaption

Swaption instrument object

Description

Create and price a Swaption instrument object for one or more Swaption instruments using this workflow:

1. Use fininstrument to create a Swaption instrument object for one or more Swaption instruments.

2. Use finmodel to specify a HullWhite, BlackKarasinski, Black, Normal, SABR, or LinearGaussian2F model for the Swaption instrument object.

3. Choose a pricing method.

   • When using a HullWhite, BlackKarasinski, Black, Normal, or SABR model, use finpricer to specify a Normal, SABR, Black, HullWhite, or IRTree pricing method for one or more Swaption instruments.

   • When using a HullWhite or LinearGaussian2F model, use finpricer to specify an IRMonteCarlo pricing method for one or more Swaption instruments.

For more information on this workflow, see Get Started with Workflows Using Object-Based Framework for Pricing Financial Instruments.

For more information on the available models and pricing methods for a Swaption instrument, see Choose Instruments, Models, and Pricers.

Creation

Syntax

SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument(InstrumentType,'Strike',strike_value,'ExerciseDate',exercice_date)

SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument(___,Name,Value)

Description

SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument(InstrumentType,'Strike',strike_value,'ExerciseDate',exercice_date) creates a Swaption object for one or more Swaption instruments by specifying InstrumentType and sets the properties for the required name-value pair arguments Strike and ExerciseDate. For more information on a Swaption instrument, see More About.

SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument(___,Name,Value) sets optional properties using additional name-value pairs in addition to the required arguments in the previous syntax. For example, SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument("Swaption",'Strike',0.67,'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'Swap',Swap_obj,'OptionType',"put",'ExerciseStyle',"European",'Name',"swaption_instrument") creates a Swaption put instrument with a strike of 0.67 and an European exercise. You can specify multiple name-value pair arguments.

Input Arguments

InstrumentType — Instrument type

string with value "Swaption" | string array with values of "Swaption" | character vector with value 'Swaption' | cell array of character vectors with values of 'Swaption'

Instrument type, specified as a string with the value of "Swaption", a character vector with the value of 'Swaption', an NINST-by-1 string array with values of "Swaption", or an NINST-by-1 cell array of character vectors with values of 'Swaption'.

Data Types: char | cell | string

Swaption Name-Value Pair Arguments

Specify required and optional comma-separated pairs of Name,Value arguments. Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name must appear inside quotes. You can specify several name and value pair arguments in any order as Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN.

Example: SwaptionInstrument = fininstrument("Swaption",'Strike',.67,'ExerciseDate',datetime(2019,1,30),'Swap',Swap_obj,'OptionType',"put",'ExerciseStyle',"European",'Name',"swaption_instrument")

Required Swaption Name-Value Pair Arguments

Strike — Option strike value

scalar nonnegative decimal | vector of nonnegative decimals

Option strike value, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Strike' and a scalar nonnegative decimal or an NINST-by-1 vector of nonnegative decimals.

Note

For a European option, there is only one ExerciseDate on the option expiry date.

If you use date character vectors or date strings, the format must be recognizable by datetime because the ExerciseDate property is stored as a datetime.

Data Types: double | char | cell | string | datetime

Swap — Underlying Swap object

scalar Swap object | vector of Swap objects

Underlying Swap object, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Swap' and a scalar Swap object or an NINST-by-1 vector of Swap objects.

Compute Forward Swap Rate by Creating Swap Instrument

Use fininstrument to create a Swap instrument object.

LegRate = [0 0];

    "ProjectionCurve", ZeroCurve, "StartDate", SwaptionExerciseDate)

Load the Market Implied Volatility Data

The market swaption volatilities are quoted in terms of shifted Black volatilities with a 0.8 percent shift.

StrikeGrid = [-0.5; -0.25; -0.125; 0; 0.125; 0.25; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5]/100;
MarketStrikes = ForwardValue + StrikeGrid;

ATMShiftedBlackVolatility = MarketShiftedBlackVolatilities(StrikeGrid==0);

Calibrate Shifted SABR Model Parameters

The Beta parameter is predetermined at 0.5. Use volatilities to compute the implied volatility.

Beta = 0.5;

% Calibrate Alpha, Rho, and Nu
objFun = @(X) MarketShiftedBlackVolatilities - volatilities(finpricer("Analytic", 'Model', ...
    finmodel("SABR", 'Alpha', X(1), 'Beta', Beta, 'Rho', X(2), 'Nu', X(3), 'Shift', Shift), ...
    'DiscountCurve', ZeroCurve), SwaptionExerciseDate, ForwardValue, MarketStrikes);

X = lsqnonlin(objFun, [0.5 0 0.5], [0 -1 0], [Inf 1 Inf]);

Local minimum possible.

lsqnonlin stopped because the final change in the sum of squares relative to 
its initial value is less than the value of the function tolerance.

Alpha = X(1);
Rho = X(2);
Nu = X(3);

Create SABR Model Using the Calibrated Parameters

Use finmodel to create a SABR model object.

More About

Call Swaption

A call swaption or payer swaption allows the option buyer to enter into an interest-rate swap in which the buyer of the option pays the fixed rate and receives the floating rate.

Put Swaption

A put swaption or receiver swaption allows the option buyer to enter into an interest-rate swap in which the buyer of the option receives the fixed rate and pays the floating rate.
