In addition, the new post-crisis paradigms, like multi-curves, x-value adjustments (xVA) and Counterparty Credit Risk are also discussed in a very simple framework. It shows a simple link between theoretical technicalities and practical solutions. Finally, real world data and numerical simulations are compared in order to provide a reader with a simple and handy insight on the actual model performances..
