Local Control Regression: Improving the Least Squares Monte Carlo Method for Portfolio Optimization
The least squares Monte Carlo algorithm has become popular for solving portfolio optimization problems. A simple approach is to approximate the value functions on a discrete grid of portfolio weights, then use control regression to generalize the discrete estimates. However, the classical global control regression can be expensive and inaccurate. To overcome this difficulty, we introduce a local control regression technique, combined with adaptive grids. We show that choosing a coarse grid for local regression can produce sufficiently accurate results.

Finite Difference Solution Ansatz approach in Least-Squares Monte Carlo
This article presents a simple but effective and efficient approach to improve the accuracy and stability of Least-Squares Monte Carlo. The key idea is to construct the ansatz of conditional expected continuation payoff …
Efficient Least Squares Monte-Carlo Technique for PFE/EE Calculations
We describe a regression-based method, generally referred to as the Least Squares Monte Carlo (LSMC) method, to speed up exposure calculations of a portfolio. We assume that the portfolio contains several exotic derivati…
