Static replication of exotic options
In the Black-Scholes model, stocks and bonds can be continuously traded to replicate the payoff of any derivative security. In practice, frequent trading is both costly and impractical. Static replication attempts to address this problem by creating replicating strategies that only trade rarely. In this thesis, we will study the static replication of exotic options by plain vanilla options. In ...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Exotic Options
Options or “privileges” as they were known in early 19th Century America actually appeared on the financial scene around the same times as stocks. Initially, there were numerous problems with the trading of options. The terms of the contract were different from contract to contract, contracts had to be exercised in person, and there really was no secondary market to trade. Options were eventual...
متن کاملCalibration Risk for Exotic Options
Option pricing models are calibrated to market data of plain vanillas by minimization of an error functional. From the economic viewpoint, there are several possibilities to measure the error between the market and the model. These different specifications of the error give rise to different sets of calibrated model parameters and the resulting prices of exotic options vary significantly. These...
متن کاملExotic Options for Interruptible Electricity Supply Contracts
This paper presents the design and pricing of financial contracts for the supply and procurement of interruptible electricity service. While the contract forms and pricing methodology have broader applications, the focus of this work is on electricity market applications, which motivate the contract structures and price process assumptions. In particular, we propose a new contract form that bun...
متن کاملExotic Options Pricing under Stochastic Volatility
This paper proposes an analytical approximation to price exotic options within a stochastic volatility framework. Assuming a general mean reverting process for the underlying asset and a square-root process for the volatility, we derive an approximation for option prices using a Taylor expansion around two average defined volatilities. The moments of the average volatilities are computed analyt...
