In this work, we try to connect the techniques of stochastic analysis with behavioral finance for pricing a swap in the light of the consequences of recent financial crisis. Apart all, that could be constitute one example of possible interactions between different fields of research. After the crisis, reconstruction of zero-coupon interest rates curve has faced particular features, since the use of swaps with different maturities has caused different implied curves. In this context, we consider the example of the contracts signed by Local Government Units and we price them, taking in account possible behavioral benefits which can affect their decisions.

Abstract
In this work, we try to connect the techniques of stochastic analysis with behavioral finance for pricing a swap in the light of the consequences of recent financial crisis. Apart all, that could be constitute one example of possible interactions between different fields of research. After the crisis, reconstruction of zero-coupon interest rates curve has faced particular features, since the use of swaps with different maturities has caused different implied curves. In this context, we consider the example of the contracts signed by Local Government Units and we price them, taking in account possible behavioral benefits which can affect their decisions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
