Numerix to Host Complimentary Webinar: Overview of New Inflation Market Models


NEW YORK - Tuesday, September 13th 2011 [ME NewsWire]

On Tuesday, September 13, 2011 at 9:30 am EDT, Numerix will host a complimentary webinar highlighting its new inflation market models

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Numerix (www.numerix.com), the leading provider of cross-asset analytics for derivatives valuations and risk management, is hosting a complimentary webinar covering its new inflation market models on Tuesday, September 13th at 9:30 am EDT.

In the post-credit crisis environment, the newly introduced inflation models will help capture the volatility that standard approaches didn’t address in the past. The last few years have seen a deepening of liquidity in the inflation derivative markets both in terms of longer maturities being traded and non-ATM strikes becoming far more liquid. A wider range of cap/floor strikes including those struck at non-zero strikes, are now available with maturity ranging up to 10 years and sometimes even longer. As a result, modeling the smile and capturing the stochastic nature of volatility has become critically important for inflation derivatives trading.

In order to address the growing market appetite for inflation derivatives globally—whether for hedging or investment opportunity—Numerix CrossAsset’s implementation of the Inflation Market Models enables investors to accurately price a wider range of inflation derivatives, including: Inflation Swaps (Zero Coupon and Year-on-Year Swaps), Inflation-linked Bonds and Inflation Caps & Floors. The new models enable calibration to Zero Coupon Inflation Swaps and Inflation Caps & Floors, as well as capturing the Volatility Smile.

Numerix will host a webinar on Tuesday, September 13th at 9:30 am EDT to discuss these new Inflation Market Models, and to demonstrate implementation and model validation.

Featured Speakers Will Include:

James Jockle, Senior Vice President, Marketing

Dr. Andrei Lopatin, Vice President, Quantitative Research & Development

Jie Zhu, Senior Financial Engineer
