Class TenorConverter


  • public class TenorConverter
    extends Object
    This class implements a caplet volatility tenor converter. Given a correlationprovider, the current caplet vol data and the new tenor it converts the volatilities to the new tenor using the method suggested in the paper by Schlenkrich.
