Mortgage securities abnormal duration profile:•Investigated the reasons behind an anomaly in the duration profile of certain mortgage passthrough portfolios when testing parallel interest rates shocks. The research involved analyzing the results of the prepayment model (i.e. CPR), the interest rate stochastic model (i.e. BGM model) and the Monte-Carlo simulations conducted by Polypaths. Hedge accounting fair value impact analysis:•Conducted a sensitivity analysis on all financial instruments subject to the fair value accounting rules (i.e. US GAAP ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging) based on twenty scenarios that involve parallel, non-parallel, and basis shocks to all the curves. The analysis is meant to introduce a comprehensive method to quantify the net income volatility exposure from stressed interest rates movements. Automated the report generation through a complex VBA code, batch file and Bloomberg equations.Determination of the optimal Constant Elasticity of Variance (CEV) for the BGM interest rate model: •Worked on developing a semiannual monitoring procedure for measuring the implied volatility distribution (i.e. Normal vs. Lognormal) to be used in the Brace, Gatarek and Musiella (BGM) 3-factor model’s CEV input.
