Corridor Implied Volatility and the Variance Risk Premium in the Italian Market
Corridor implied volatility introduced in Carr and Madan (1998) and recently implemented in Andersen and Bondarenko (2007) is obtained from model-free implied volatility by truncating the integration domain between two barriers. Corridor implied volatility is implicitly linked with the concept that the tails of the risk-neutral distribution are estimated with less precision than central values,...
متن کاملThe Volatility Premium
Implied option volatility averages about 19% per year, while the unconditional return volatility is only about 16%. The difference, coined the volatility premium, is substantial and translates into large returns for sellers of index options. This paper studies a general equilibrium model based on long-run risk which in an effort to explain the premium. In estimating the model on past data of st...
متن کاملImplied Volatility Smirk
This paper studies implied volatility smirk quantitatively. We first propose a new concept of smirkness, which is defined as a triplet of at-the-money implied volatility, skewness (slope at the money) and smileness (curvature at the money) of implied volatility – moneyness curve. The moneyness is the logarithm of the strike price over the forward price, normalized by the standard deviation of e...
متن کاملDeterministic implied volatility models
Abstract In this paper, we characterize two deterministic implied volatility models, defined by assuming that either the per-delta or the per-strike implied volatility surface has a deterministic evolution. Practitioners have recently proposed these two models to describe two regimes of implied volatility (see Derman (1999 Risk 4 55–9)). In an arbitrage-free sticky-delta model, we show that the...
متن کاملNormalization for Implied Volatility
We study specific nonlinear transformations of the Black-Scholes implied volatility to show remarkable properties of the volatility surface. Model-free bounds on the implied volatility skew are given. Pricing formulas for the European options which are written in terms of the implied volatility are given. In particular, we prove elegant formulas for the fair strikes of the variance swap and the...
