This function computes estimators (sample mean) of

$$E[X_T exp(-\int_0^T r_s ds)]$$

where \(X_T\) is an asset value at given maturities \(T\), and \((r_s)_s\) is the risk-free rate.

esgmcprices(r, X, maturity = NULL)

Arguments

r

a numeric or a time series object, the risk-free rate(s).

X

asset prices obtained with simdiff

maturity

the corresponding maturity (optional). If missing, all the maturities available in X are used.
