Getting Started

 

This link provides some useful background on the Monte-Carlo Framework, providing examples from Finance and Generating Correlated Random Variables.

 

As an alternative to simulation, this paper discusses some approximations to the sums of non-independent lognormal random variables. The 'maximal variance' lowerbound approach discussed in section 2.2 is implemented as part of this spreadsheet
