Book publication soon!

After more than 6 months of delay, it appears that the editor finally managed to provide clean proofs for the second edition of my book "Interest Rate Modelling in the Multi-curve Framework: Foundations, Evolution, Transition, and Implementation". The manuscript was finalised in May ... 2025, we can now hope for a publication in July 2026.

As soon as physical copies are available I will post a message on this blog! Thanks for you patience.

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.

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...

Overnight indexed futures

With that increased importance, the market will look for source of liquidity for overnight based derivatives beyond the traditional OIS. In its document on SONIA as the RFR, the The Working Group on Sterling Risk-Free Reference Rates calls for the development and promotion of interest rate derivative products which reference the RFR, including the design of a futures contract . At a couple of days interval, CurveGlobal and CME have announced their plans to launch new overnight benchmark based futures.
