The Convertible Bond and Hybrid Instrument Software


 

Technology

Our approach is based on a PDE (Partial Differential Equation) algorithm which is extremely accurate and very quick. The numerical algorithm was designed by a mathematics Professor at the University of Chicago. The algorithm takes into account that as stock prices decline extremely low levels spreads widen to account for increased default risk. The program has "hooks" into the Bloomberg so loading a new bond is as easy as pressing a button.

Availability

The program is available on many different platforms (e.g. PC Windows, Excel Add/In, Unix Subroutine and more).
