Hedging index options with few assets
We consider hedging strategies against contingent claims depending on a large number of assets (typically options on an index). We introduce strategies involving a limited number of assets and give explicit formulae to characterize optimal strategies. Numerical methods to compute these formulae are also discussed. The purpose of this paper is to apply some ideas that appeared in the recent deve...

متن کاملHedging of Options in Jump-Diffusion Markets with Correlated Assets
We consider the hedging problem in a jump-diffusion market with correlated assets. For this purpose, we employ the locally risk-minimizing approach and obtain the hedging portfolio as a solution of a multidimensional system of linear equations. This system shows that in a continuous market, independence and correlation assumptions of assets lead to the same locally risk-minimizing portfolio. ...
متن کاملReconciling Smiles for Index and Stock Options
The fact that the implied volatility smiles for equity indices are strongly downward sloping, while the typical individual stock exhibits either a flat or even an upward sloping smile is sometimes considered puzzling. We show that this effect can easily be generated in a simple and parsimonious two-factor stochastic volatility model in the spirit of Bates (2000). From a theoretical perspective ...
