Abstract

A CUDA kernel is proposed in this paper for acceleration of the computation of a dynamic hedging model. This is a very useful tool in segregated fund modelling. Current approaches delve on scenario reduction techniques in order to extract meaningful information from a large data set. Parallel programming allows these models to be effectively evaluated within a critical time frame. The GPU execution times shows significant improvement over CPU approaches.
