Lattice models, typically binomial lattice models, are utilized for the valuation of more complex equity and debt securities that cannot be valued using a closed-form solution (such as the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model); however, the modeling and selection of appropriate methodology present many challenges. In this webinar, Dave Duffendach and John Sawyer will present several approaches to valuing complex equity and debt securities, including the identification of a security’s features and payoffs that require a lattice model instead of a closed-form solution. In addition, the speakers will share their opinions and potential pitfalls when utilizing lattice models.
