Abstract
In this paper we present two new multivariate nonlinear diffusion models for valuing financial derivatives. These models are built upon a newly developed univariate forward price model UOU, which is in turn constructed from an underlying Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion process by transforming variables and changing measure. In addition to its exceptional probabilistic and finance-related properties, the UOU model admits analytically closed-form transition density functions. To couple independent UOU processes, we employ a bridge copula method or a multivariate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. The models constructed hereare used to price Asian-style path-dependent and Bermudan options.
