Class SyntheticRatesCurveCalibrator


  • public final class SyntheticRatesCurveCalibrator
    extends Object
    Synthetic curve calibrator.

    A synthetic curve is a curve calibrated on synthetic instruments. A synthetic instrument is an instrument for which a theoretical or synthetic quote can be computed from a RatesProvider.

    This curve transformation is often used to have a different risk view or to standardize all risk to a common set of instruments, even if they are not the most liquid in a market.
