  • Kamakura’s models offer a quantitative backbone to address often overlooked and strong assumptions behind most risk and valuation models. Built upon professor Jarrow’s research, the models provide a term structure to realistically represent the finite lifetime of issuers of financial instruments. A state of the art yield curve modeling technology is provided by the company to realistically and adequately apply relevant discount factors for proper valuation as illustrated by the HJM model.
