While the margin for a derivative transaction can only be transferred until just before the counterparty’s default, the exposure of the derivative transaction can vary stochastically during the margin period of risk, that is, the period from the counterparty’s default to the actual closing-out of the transaction. Thus, the anticipated positive exposure may not be recognized, resulting in counterparty risk. Considering it is difficult to calculate the initial margin (IM) according to the regulations, IM has been calculated in practice using a simplified method proposed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA), which is called the ISDA Standard Initial Margin Model (“ISDA SIMM”). In this study, we derive an approximate formula for some counterparty risk indicators for a stochastic volatility model and illustrate numerical analyses for a call option in the SABR model as an example to examine the effect of the discrepancy between regulations and practices in margin calculation. Our results imply that the IM calculated in practice may be insufficient for counterparty risk management, particularly when the market is volatile.</p>","PeriodicalId":50264,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Industrial and Applied Mathematics","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141508125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The coarse-grid operator optimization method for MGRIT has achieved high convergence for one of the hyperbolic problems that had poor convergence performance: the one-dimensional linear advection problems with constant coefficients. This paper applies this optimization method to two-dimensional linear time-dependent Stokes and Oseen problems using the pressure projection and the staggered grid discretization methods. Although the time-stepping operator involves the projection operator, the commutativity in the periodic boundary conditions allows a similar adaptation of the coarse-grid operator optimization for scalar equations. This method can also be applied to Dirichlet boundary problems by modifying the operator obtained based on the assumption of periodic boundary conditions. We demonstrate that MGRIT can achieve reasonable convergence rates for these problems with a practical number of non-zero elements by using the optimization method. Numerical experiments show convergence estimates for periodic boundary problems, applications to Dirichlet boundary problems, and parallel results compared to the sequential time-stepping method.</p>","PeriodicalId":50264,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Industrial and Applied Mathematics","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140802650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
