Summary: Two nonlinear Monte Carlo schemes, namely, the linear Monte Carlo expansion with randomization of M. Fujii and A. Takahashi [Int. J. Theor. Appl. Finance 15, No. 5, Article ID 1250034, 24 p. (2012; Zbl 1262.91159); “Perturbative expansion of FBSDE in an incomplete market with stochastic volatility”, Q. J. Finance 2, No. 3, Article ID 1250015, 24 p. (2012; doi:10.1142/S2010139212500152)] and the marked branching diffusion scheme of P. Henry-Labordère [“Cutting CVA’s complexity”, Risk Mag. 25, No. 7, 67–73 (2012)], are compared in terms of applicability and numerical behavior regarding counterparty risk computations on credit derivatives. This is done in two dynamic copula models of portfolio credit risk: the dynamic Gaussian copula model and the model in which default dependence stems from joint defaults. For such high-dimensional and nonlinear pricing problems, more standard deterministic or simulation/regression schemes are ruled out by Bellman’s “curse of dimensionality” and only purely forward Monte Carlo schemes can be used.
