We perform Lie symmetry analysis to a zero-coupon bond pricing equation whose price evolution is described in terms of a partial differential equation (PDE). As a result, using the computer software package SYM, run in conjunction with Mathematica, a new family of Lie symmetry group and generators of the aforementioned pricing equation are derived. We furthermore compute the exact invariant solutions which constitute the pricing models for the bond by making use of the derived infinitesimal generators and the associated similarity reduction equations. Using known solutions, we again compute more solutions via group point transformations.
