Abstract
We analyse the strong approximation of the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross (CIR) process in the regime where the process does not hit zero by a positivity preserving drift-implicit Euler-type method. As an error criterion, we use the p th mean of the maximum distance between the CIR process and its approximation on a finite time interval. We show that under mild assumptions on the parameters of the CIR process, the proposed method attains, up to a logarithmic term, the convergence of order 1/2. This agrees with the standard rate of the strong convergence for global approximations of stochastic differential equations with Lipschitz coefficients, despite the fact that the CIR process has a non-Lipschitz diffusion coefficient.
