Abstract
The interest rate derivatives market is the largest derivatives market in the world. Mostly traded OTC, the interest rate securities are extremely popular especially among large institutional investors. Thus, the valuation of these instruments has been a major challenge of both practitioners and academics. Pricing interest rate derivatives fundamentally depends on the term structure of interest rates.
