Brigo and Mercurio's G2++ -- Want Numerical Zero Curve numbers they used in their example on p166/167

June 12th, 2012, 9:32 am

Hi,I am trying to implement Brigo and Mercurio's G2++ model and want to reproduce the results they have on p167 (In the 3rd column of the table),for this I need the zero curve. The zero curve they used in the example is only given as a chart - Figure 1.1 (if I have missed it as a table in the text, then great, please let me know which page). Does anyone have the actual numerical numbers to a high level of accuracy (rather than just reading off the graph) of the zero curve in Figure 1.1? I guess if I don't have the zero curve, I can can use their formula (given that they provide the a,b,\sigma, \eta, rho which they worked out for the model) to work out the zero curve, but I would rather try and work out a,b,\sigma, \eta \rho myself.Thanks for your help, Tony
