A closed-form formula for the conditional expectation of the extended CIR process
Abstract
This paper is an extension to a recent paper by Rujivan (2016), in which we derive a closed-form formula for the conditional expectation of the valuation process, defined by , : T s t t r s ds r u du T t T T s t V e f v h v e ds for 0 , t T where t v is assumed to follow the extended Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process, for 1 f v v and 2 h v v for any 1 2 , R , and any integrable function r . Our newly-derived formula can be used to price a contingent claim f r h , , in which , t f v r t , and h v t for t T 0, represent, respectively, a terminal payoff, an interest rate process, and a payoff rate process.
