description This paper discusses progress and future research possibilities in applying MLMC ideas to nested expectations of the form 𝔼[𝑔(𝔼[𝑓(𝑋,𝑌)|𝑋])], with an outer expectation with respect to one random variable X, and an inner conditional expectation with respect to a second random variable Y . The difficulty in treating such applications is shown to depend on whether the function g is (1) smooth, (2) continuous and piecewise smooth, or (3) discontinuous.
