Credit Valuation Adjustment with Replacement Closeout: Theory and Algorithms
The replacement closeout convention has drawn more and more attention since the 2008 financial crisis. Compared with the conventional risk-free closeout, the replacement closeout convention incorporates the creditworthiness of the counterparty and thus providing a more accurate estimate of the Mark-to-market value of a financial claim. In contrast to the risk-free closeout, the replacement closeout renders a nonlinear valuation system, which constitutes the major difficulty in the valuation of the counterparty credit risk. In this paper, we show how to address the nonlinearity attributed to the replacement closeout in the theoretical and computational analysis. In the theoretical part, we prove the unique solvability of the nonlinear valuation system and study the impact of the replacement closeout on the credit valuation adjustment. In the computational part, we propose a neural network-based algorithm for solving the (high dimensional) nonlinear valuation system and effectively alleviating the curse of dimensionality. We numerically compare the computational cost for the valuations with risk-free and replacement closeouts. The numerical tests confirm both the accuracy and the computational efficiency of our proposed algorithm for the valuation of the replacement closeout.

Robust XVA
We introduce an arbitrage-free framework for robust valuation adjustments. An investor trades a credit default swap portfolio with a risky counterparty, and hedges credit risk by taking a position in defaultable bonds. T…
Invariance, existence and uniqueness of solutions of nonlinear valuation PDEs and FBSDEs inclusive of credit risk, collateral and funding costs
We study conditions for existence, uniqueness and invariance of the comprehensive nonlinear valuation equations first introduced in Pallavicini et al (2011). These equations take the form of semilinear PDEs and Forward-B…
Default Process Modeling and Credit Valuation Adjustment
This paper presents a convenient framework for modeling default process and pricing derivative securities involving credit risk. The framework provides an integrated view of credit valuation adjustment by linking distanc…
Efficient Risk Estimation for the Credit Valuation Adjustment
The valuation of over-the-counter derivatives is subject to a series of valuation adjustments known as xVA, which pose additional risks for financial institutions. Associated risk measures, such as the value-at-risk of a…
Distributionally Robust XVA via Wasserstein Distance: Wrong Way Counterparty Credit and Funding Risk
This paper investigates calculations of robust XVA, in particular, credit valuation adjustment (CVA) and funding valuation adjustment (FVA) for over-the-counter derivatives under distributional uncertainty using Wasserst…
