Abstract

An algorithm for computing the drift in the LIBOR market model with additional idiosyncratic terms is introduced. This algorithm achieves a computational complexity of order equal to the number of common factors times the number of rates. It is demonstrated that this allows better matching of correlation matrices in reduced-factor models.

Keywords: LIBOR market model, low factor, efficiency
