Q.1679 A lognormal model with mean reversion is called the Black-Karasinski model. This model allows the volatility, mean reversion and short rate’s central tendency to depend on time. These features make this model arbitrage-free. This model shows that the natural logarithm of the short rate is normally distributed. What does this model allow the user to do which is not allowed in other models?
A
A user can use or remove as much time dependence as desired.
B
A user can change the distributions as desired in any situation.
C
A user can change the price of the securities under consideration when needed.
