A Market Model for Stochastic Implied Volatility
In this paper a stochastic volatility model is presented that directly prescribes the stochastic development of the implied Black-Scholes volatilities of a set of given standard options. Thus the model is able to capture the stochastic movements of a full term structure of implied volatilities. The conditions are derived that have to be satisfied to ensure absence of arbitrage in the model and ...
متن کاملImplied Volatility Spreads and Expected Market Returns
To save space, we present some of our …ndings in the Online Appendix. In Section I, we investigate the intertemporal relation between various skewness measures and expected market returns. In Section II, we orthogonalize the implied volatility spread measures with respect to the implied variance, realized variance, physical skewness and risk-neutral skewness measures. In Section III, we orthogo...
متن کاملThe term structure of equity option implied volatility
This paper investigates the relationship between the slope of the implied volatility (IV) term structure and future option returns. In Fama-Macbeth regressions we demonstrate that implied volatility slopes are positively correlated with future returns on short-term at-the-month straddles. A strategy that buys straddles with high IV slopes and short sells straddles with low IV slopes returns sev...
متن کاملModelling the Implied Volatility Surface: Does Market Efficiency Matter?
We analyze the volatility surface vs. moneyness and time to expiration implied by MIBO options written on the MIB30, the most important Italian stock index. We specify and fit a few models for the implied volatility surface and find that it has a rich and interesting structure that strongly departs from a constant volatility, Black-Scholes benchmark. This result is robust to a few alternative e...

However, the recent literature on financial liberalization suggests that volatile capital flows lead to ...
