Expand description
Worst-of autocallable: the structured-products flagship — an autocallable note observed on the worst performer of a basket.
At each observation the worst-of performance
W(t) = min_i S_i(t) / S_i(0) is compared against the barriers; the
coupon, autocall, knock-in and downside-participation logic is the
single-asset AutocallablePayoff evaluated on the worst-of path
expressed in initial_fixing units, so every payoff variant (Athena
accrued coupons, Phoenix conditional coupons with memory, explicit
observation schedules) carries over unchanged.
Paths are the correlated multi-asset lognormal dynamics of
MultiAssetGbmProcess — exact joint transitions, so step count only
sets monitoring resolution — driven by the shared multi-factor draw
machinery (seeded pseudo-random antithetic pairs, or the
low-discrepancy sequence with one Brownian bridge per asset).
Economics worth testing against: the note is long correlation (a tighter basket has a better worst performer), and adding an asset can only cheapen it.
