A Fully Quantization-based Scheme for FBSDEs

Abstract

We propose a quantization-based numerical scheme for a family of decoupled FBSDEs. We simplify the scheme for the control in Pag\`es and Sagna (2018) so that our approach is fully based on recursive marginal quantization and does not involve any Monte Carlo simulation for the computation of conditional expectations. We analyse in detail the numerical error of our scheme and we show through some examples the performance of the whole procedure, which proves to be very effective in view of financial applications.
