Published!

My "Interest Rate Modelling in the Multi-curve Framework" book has finally been published!

It took quite some time between finishing the writing in the first half of 2025 and the actual physical availability. Hopefully some of you will find some interest in the result.

Training based on the book’s content will be proposed. It can be as in-house or public workshops. One of the public workshops is planned for 17 and 18 December. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you are interested.

Short note on long-term repos

The market infrastructure for interbank lending and derivatives has dramatically changed over the last ten years. The interbank lending is done now mainly on a secured basis. Derivatives are margined daily with variation margin guaranteeing the full present value of the trades. The world of interest rate benchmarks is also rapidly changing with the possible discontinuation of the IBOR benchmarks that have reigned on the benchmark kingdom over the last 30 years and the emergence of secured rate overnight benchmarks. All derivative users are now well aware of the difference between overnight-indexed swap (OIS) rates and term LIBOR deposit rates even if its discovery may have been sudden to some market participants in 2007. When we combined the secured term lending, the collateralised derivatives and the secured benchmark, what is left of the OIS-term deposit difference? This is the question I try to answer in a brief note now available on SSRN at https://ssrn.com/abstract=3258690 U...

Multi-curve framework book new edition: endorsement by Marco Bianchetti

Different experts in interest rate modelling were kind enough to write an endorsement for the multi-curve new edition book. Part of them are displayed on the back-cover (there is not enough space to display the full texts there). I will publish on this blog the longer versions of them between now the actual book's publication in November. This is the book I would have loved to write, but now that I have it in front of me, I realize I would not have matched Marc Henrard's excellence. All the essential aspects needed to understand modern interest rate modelling theory, as well as to apply it in everyday financial practice, are clearly explained with a rigorous yet practical approach. Definitely, it is one of the books that every practitioner of quantitative finance should read and keep at hand.

Multi-curve framework book: new edition in progress

Image
Subject: Interest Rate Modelling in the Multi-curve Framework: Foundations, Evolution, and Implementation It has been more than 10 years since I wrote the first edition of the multi-curve framework book. What happened in those 10 years? Why did it take me so long to start a new version? It took me roughly 10 years to write the first edition. The reason it took so long at that time, was that I did not know that I was writing it! I thought I was writing a couple of pages on an obscured and theoretical idea that there was not a `` one curve to rule them all '' but multiple curves. It turned out that it became the actual practice for very clear and important reasons. That was the excuse for the first edition, what is the excuse for the second edition? Since the first edition, many things happen, in particular: March 2015: BCBS - IOSCO: margin requirements for non-centrally cleared derivatives and mandatory variation margin July 2017: The future of LIBOR -- actually it...
