Quanto barrier submission

pfarrington

I recently implemented a quanto barrier option instrument in QL and priced this using the same methodology used for vanilla and forward vanilla option. The behaviour of the quanto adjustment seems correct, although I don;t have an exact reference example to verify against.

Should I submit the instrument and test code to OK it for review and/or inclusion in the library? (there was some discussion about a ql/contrib folder Luigi suggested previously..)

Regards,

Paul

Yes, please do.

Thanks,

P.S. As for the paperwork: are you in academia, self-employed, or
employed? If the latter, it would be nice to get a disclaimer from your
employer stating that he's happy to have you contribute.
