Abstract This paper addresses the problem of sampling paths from a binomial lattice model of the term structure of interest rates. It characterizes the accuracy in the estimation of path dependent discount functions and it provides a simple procedure for sampling paths that will produce a prespecified level of accuracy. The developed technique is demonstrated using a pricing model from mortgage-backed financing.
