pricing derivatives

SciComp Inc.

Over the past year, SciComp extended the instrument coverage of its SciFinance automated pricing model generator to include, among others, cash collateralised debt obligations (CCDOs), CDO-squareds and credit-linked range accrual notes. A new generic short rate and hazard rate calibration module calibrates both the short and hazard rates (correlated), using models such as one-factor, Gaussian and extended exponential Vasichek.

SciSTCDO is a standalone pricing, risk and calibration engine for single-tranche CDOs, and provides both a broad, high-performance Monte Carlo simulation method that employs a factor copula approach for handling exotic variations, and a fast specialised semi-analytic approach.

Reval Speeds Up Pricing Complex Instruments in the Cloud with SciFinance

"We were looking for a cost-effective and easy-to-deploy solution to improve the pricing of complex derivative instruments using PDEs or Monte Carlo simulation in our SaaS product. We found it with SciFinance and GPU-enabled models, without having to become experts in parallel coding or CUDA."

CUDA-Enabled Codes

"...the only thing you need to add to get GPGPU acceleration is literally 'CUDA'; it's a single keyword, not a fundamentally different way to formulate the math equations. This allows SciComp's customers to save even more time while also improving accuracy."
