One factor models of interest rates
Jambor, Matúš ; Myška, Petr (advisor) ; Hurt, Jan (referee)
Title: One factor interest rate models Author: Matúš Jambor Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: RNDr. Petr Myška Abstract: In this thesis we looked closely at the models of interest rates that are applied in the area of financial mathematics and actuarial sciences. There are several models that try to describe the behavior of yield curve plausibly. In most of the cases the models stem from probability theory and coincidence. These models are also means for assessment of financial derivates whose price de- pends on the interest rates movements. The work deals with three one-factor models which are analyzed into more details in the second chapter. The last chapter is about real-data calibration. Keywords: one factor models, interest rates, maximum likelihood method 1

Pricing of the debt instruments with embedded options
Jambor, Matúš ; Witzany, Jiří (advisor) ; Hurt, Jan (referee)
Title: Pricing of the debt instruments with embedded options Author: Bc. Matúš Jambor Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Jiří Witzany, Ph.D., University of Economics in Prague Abstract: In this thesis we focus on debt instruments with embedded options, which offer the possibility for the creditor or debtor to exercise the option in pre- determined times during its lifetime. With this the Bermudian characteristics it is not possible to price these debt instruments using standard simulation techniques. However, the technique of trinomial trees can be exploited. To preserve consistency with the pricing of fundamental financial instruments, it is suitable to assume that the interest rate follows a stochastic process in the arbitrage free framework. One of the possibilities for modeling the dynamics of interest rates are one-factor models. We have developed a pricing algorithm based on trinomial tree for Hull-White model and Black-Karasinski model which have the desired properties and model parameters are calibrated to the market data. Keywords: trinomial tree, interest rate derivatives pricing, Hull-White model, Black- Karasinski model, instantaneous interest rate 1
