Abstract :
We propose a pricing model for convertible bonds with Monte Carlo simulation. Our method focuses on a parametric representation of voluntary conversion decisions, which constitute the optimal exercise decision together with the call decision based on the predetermined trigger price. Furthermore, our model can be easily extended to some complex conditions where credit risk, stochastic volatility, and term structure of interest rate are considered, under which it still remains intuitive and efficient.
