| Blog Post: TheAlephBlog: Replacing Defined Contributions Posted: 27 Mar 2012 01:58 AM PDT I think that it is pretty certain that defined contribution [DC] plans 401(k)s, 403(b)s, 457s, much as they have grown to be dominant, have been a failure. Many, though not all people like the illusion of control, and seeing their cash balance — makes the pension plan tangible, even if they don’t get what they will really need at retirement.read more...

| Blog Post: Falkenblog: Hedge Fund Profits Near Zero Posted: 26 Mar 2012 06:19 PM PDT The graph above shows the portion of hedge fund profits that go to the hedge funds, the fund-of-funds, and the investors, using total dollars from 1998-2010. This is from Simon Lack's presentation, which is derived from his book Hedge Fund Mirage. Notice 97% go to insiders, 3% to investors. Like most strategies or asset classes, the money made on a percent basis is large because it basically... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Published / Preprint: The Wishart short rate model. (arXiv:1203.5513v1 [q-fin.PR]) Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:30 PM PDT We consider a short rate model, driven by a stochastic process on the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. We propose a new closed form solution for the pricing of zero-coupon bonds and interest-rate derivatives, based on the Cameron-Martin approach outlined in Gnoatto and Grasselli (2011). Moreover, we derive sufficient conditions ensuring that the model replicates normal, inverse or humped... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:30 PM PDT We propose a stochastic process driven by the memory effect with novel distributions which include both exponential and leptokurtic heavy-tailed distributions. A class of the distributions is analytically derived from the continuum limit of the discrete binary process with the renormalized auto-correlation. The moment generating function with a closed form is obtained, thus the cumulants are... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Published / Preprint: Asset Pricing under uncertainty. (arXiv:1203.5664v1 [q-fin.PR]) Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:30 PM PDT We study the effect of parameter uncertainty on a stochastic diffusion model, in particular the impact on the pricing of contingent claims, using methods from the theory of Dirichlet forms. We apply these techniques to hedging procedures in order to compute the sensitivity of SDE trajectories with respect to parameter perturbations. We show that this analysis can justify endogenously the presence... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:30 PM PDT We derive a new, exact and transparent expansion for option smiles, which lends itself both to analytical approximation and, probably more importantly, to congenial numerical treatments. We show that the skew and the curvature of the smile can be computed as exotic options, for which the Hedged Monte Carlo method is particularly well suited. When applied to options on the S&P index, we find... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:30 PM PDT It has long been agreed by academics that the inversion method is the method of choice for generating random variates, given the availability of the quantile function. However for several probability distributions arising in practice a satisfactory method of approximating these functions is not available. The main focus of this paper will be to develop Taylor and asymptotic series representations... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
