cap volatility interpolation

December 11th, 2012, 6:03 am

Is there any body familiar with Bloomberg' cap vol interpolation methods? how to interp by expiry? I try vol^2 / vol / vol^2*T and vol*sqrt(T) , all are not equal to Bloomberg's result

I've not experience with BB interpolation but I was wondering if you've tried to use SABR to fit the whole surface.

try searching for Patrick Hagan's working paper related to volatility cube. There should be detailed algorithm used by BBG.
