Efficient Hedging When Asset Prices Follow A Geometric Poisson Process With Unknown Intensities
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of determining a strategy that is efficient in the sense that it minimizes the expectation of a convex loss function of the hedging error for the case when prices change at discrete random points in time according to a geometric Poisson process. The intensities of the jump process need not be fully known by the investor. The solution algorithm is based on dynamic programming for piecewise deterministic control problems, and its implementation is discussed as well.

Pricing and Hedging Path-Dependent Options Under the CEV Process
Much of the work on path-dependent options assumes that the underlying asset price follows geometric Brownian motion with constant volatility. This paper uses a more general assumption for the asset price process that provides a better fit to the empirical observations. We use the so-called constant elasticity of variance (CEV) diffusion model where the volatility is a function of the underlyin...
متن کاملCatastrophe options with stochastic interest rates and compound Poisson losses
We analyze the pricing and hedging of catastrophe put options under stochastic interest rates with losses generated by a compound Poisson process. Asset prices are modeled through a jump-diffusion process which is correlated to the loss process. We obtain explicit closed form formulae for the price of the option, and the hedging parameters Delta, Gamma and Rho. The effects of stochastic interes...
متن کاملOption Pricing when Underlying Process is Unknown
This paper proves that a simultaneously delta-neutral and gamma-neutral position can be established with the underlying asset and two options on the same asset, without any assumption on the underlying process of the asset price. This hedging strategy leads to the same fundamental partial differential equation as derived by Black and Scholes (1973), except that the variance function is the mark...
متن کاملDynamic Pricing with Periodic Review and a Finite set of Prices with Cancellation
In this paper, three dynamic pricing models are developed and analyzed. We assume a limited number of a particular asset is offered for sale over a period of time. This asset is perishable and can be an inventory or a manufacturing capacity. During each period, the seller sets a price for this asset. This price is selected from a predetermined discrete set. The maximum amount which a customer i...
متن کاملRobust hedging of the lookback option
The aim of this article is to nd bounds on the prices of exotic derivatives , and in particular the lookback option, in terms of the (market) prices of call options. This is achieved without making explicit assumptions about the dynamics of the price process of the underlying asset, but rather by inferring information about the potential distribution of asset prices from the call prices. Thus t...
