With the development of the market,a large number of empirical studies show that more and more short-term rate models in capturing the dynamics cannot be described by those classic ones.So the mean-reverting ?–process(CKLS model)has been correspondingly proposed.In most cases,its coefficients do not satisfy the linear growth condition;even they satisfy the local Lipschitz condition.So we still cannot examine existence of solutions by traditional techniques.In this paper,these difficulties have been overcome.First,it is proved that when the parameter? ? 1,there is a local solution to the CKLS equation.Then the globally unique positive solution of the equation is proved by the Lyapunov function method.Second,when the parameter ? ? [1/2,1),we demonstrate the non-negativity of solution and the strong uniqueness through using ? functions.Third,we prove that there is a weak solution of the CKLS equation in the case of the parameter? ? [0,1/2).Finally,the paper applies the CKLS model to empirically analyze the inter-bank lending transaction borrowing rate.The four parameter values of CKLS model are estimated.Then the model is used to predict the future data,and a better prediction result has been obtained.The CKLS model has a high application value. |
