Question on stochastic local vol MC pricing for FX Tarf

Harvey Wu
Hi, 

I saw there is FX Tarf available as an instrument using MC simulation without smile. Just wonder whether currently we can price FX Tarf using stochastic local vol MC sinmulation. Any pointers to the examples would be be much appreciated.

Thanks
Harvey

Hi Harvey,

both the FxTarf engines and Klaus' / Johannes' SLV model are not yet
part of the official release as far as I know.

Concerning the FxTarf, the engine takes a
GeneralizedBlackScholesProcess, so in principle a local volatility
process is possible. The extension to a SLV process would require
changes, though it would be doable. You can find (unofficial) sample
code for FxTarf pricing here

https://github.com/pcaspers/quantlib/blob/master/QuantLib/Examples/fxtarf.cpp
https://github.com/pcaspers/quantlib/blob/master/QuantLib/Examples/fxtarf_simple.cpp

Everything around the FxTarf is considered experimental, so bugs are
likely to occur.

Best regards
Peter
