Abstract

We provide the definition and a complete characterization of regular affine processes. This type of process unifies the concepts of continuous-state branching processes with immigration and Ornstein--Uhlenbeck type processes. We show, and provide foundations for, a wide range of financial applications for regular affine processes.
