Swap rate variance swaps [PDF]

open access: possibleQuantitative Finance, 2008
We study the hedging and valuation of generalized variance swaps defined on a forward swap interest rate. Our motivation is the fundamental role of variance swaps in the transfer of variance risk, and the extensive empirical evidence documenting that the variance realized by interest rates is stochastic.

Variance swap dynamics

Quantitative Finance, 2013
We compare several parametric and non-parametric approaches for modelling variance swap curves by conducting an in-sample and an out-of-sample analysis using market prices. The forecasted Heston model gives the best overall performance. Moreover, the static Heston model highlights some problems of stochastic volatility models in option pricing of ...

Model Risk in Variance Swap Rates [PDF]

open access: possibleSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
Different theoretical and numerical methods for calculating the fair-value of a variance swap give rise to systematic biases that are most pronounced during volatile periods. For instance, differences of 10-20 percentage points would have been observed on fair-value index variance swap rates during the banking crisis in 2008, depending on the formula ...

Variance and Volatility Swap Model

2023
A variance/volatility swap is an instrument that allows explicit exposure to the realized variance/volatility of an index, stock, etc., without exposure to other risks commonly encountered with derivatives: delta, gamma, etc.
