Implied Binomial Models Master’s thesis
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we extend the standard binomial model to obtain a more flexible model that will be calibrated with market data on European puts and calls. We also discuss how this extended model can be used to incorporate an investor’s view of the future behaviour of the stock market.

Correlation Structures of Correlated Binomial Models and Implied Default Distribution
We show how to analyze and interpret the correlation structures, the conditional expectation values and correlation coefficients of exchangeable Bernoulli random variables. We study implied default distributions for the iTraxx-CJ tranches and some popular probabilistic models, including the Gaussian copula model, Beta binomial distribution model and long-range Ising model. We interpret the diff...
متن کاملValuing Real Options using Implied Binomial Trees
A real option on a commodity is valued using an implied binomial tree (IBT) calibrated using commodity futures options prices. Estimating an IBT in the absence of spot options (the norm for commodities) allows real option models to be calibrated for the first time to market-implied probability distributions for commodity prices. Also, the existence of long-dated futures options means that good ...
متن کاملValuing Real Options using Implied Binomial Trees and Commodity Futures Options
We show how to value a real option on a commodity using an implied binomial tree (IBT) that is calibrated using commodity futures options prices. Until now it has been assumed that spot options are required to be traded on the underlying asset in order to use an IBT; this requirement is, however, typically not met with commodities. We make two major contributions: First, by showing how to imple...
متن کاملCross-sectional tests of deterministic volatility functions
We study the cross-sectional performance of option pricing models in which the volatility of the underlying stock is a deterministic function of the stock price and time. For each date in our sample of FTSE 100 index option prices, we fit an implied binomial tree to the panel of all European style options with different strike prices and maturities and then examine how well this model prices a ...

This is a proposal for the research I wish to do for my Master’s thesis. It is an attempt to categorize what I know, what I don’t know, what I need to do, and where I need help. It also consists of my attempt to completely survey the literature.
