Abstract:

Most recent empirical option valuation studies build on the affine square root (SQR) stochastic volatility model. The SQR model is a convenient choice, because it yields closed-form solutions for option prices. However, relatively little is known about the empirical shortcomings of this model. In the first essay, we investigate alternatives to the SQR model, by comparing its empirical performance with that of five different but equally parsimonious stochastic volatility models. We provide empirical evidence from three different sources. We first use realized volatilities to assess the properti

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to study multi-asset barrier options, where the volatilities of the stocks are assumed to define a matrix-valued bounded stochastic process. The bounds on volatilities may represent, for instance, the extreme values of the volatilities of traded options. As the volatilities are not known exactly, the value of the option can not be determined. Nevertheless, it is possible to calculate extreme values. We show that these values correspond to the best and the worst case scenarios of the future volatilities for short positions and long positions in the portfolio of the op

Abstract:

This dissertation is in the form of three essays on the topic of component and long memory GARCH models. The unifying feature of the thesis is the focus on investigating European index option evaluation using these models.<br>The first essay presents a new model for the valuation of European options. In this model, the volatility of returns consists of two components. One of these components is a long-run component that can be modeled as fully persistent. The other component is short-run and has zero mean. The model can be viewed as an affine version of Engle and Lee (1999), allowing for easy

This dissertation looks at implementing exponential Levy models whereby the un- ´ derlyings are driven by Levy processes, which are able to account for stylised facts ´ that traditional models do not, in order to price basket options more efficiently. In particular, two exponential Levy models are implemented and tested: the multi- ´ variate Variance Gamma (VG) model and the multivariate normal inverse Gaussian (NIG) model. Both models are calibrated to real market data and then used to price basket options, where the underlyings are the constituents of the KBW Bank Index. Two pricing methods

Abstract:

American options are the most commonly traded financial derivatives in the market. Pricing these options fairly, so as to avoid arbitrage, is of paramount importance. Closed form solutions for American put options cannot be utilised in practice and so numerical techniques are employed. This thesis looks at the work done by other researchers to find an analytic solution to the American put option pricing problem and suggests a practical method, that uses Monte Carlo simulation, to approximate the American put option price. The theory behind option pricing is first discussed using a discrete mod

Abstract:

This dissertation investigates the cost of using single-factor models to exercise and hedge American options on South African coupon bearing bonds, when the simulated market term structure is driven by a two-factor model. Even if the single factor models are re-calibrated on a daily basis to the term structure, we find that the exercise and hedge strategies can be suboptimal and incur large losses. There is a vast body of research suggesting that real market term structures are in actual fact driven by multiple factors, so suboptimal losses can be largely reduced by simply employing a well-spe

Abstract:

The feasibility of capital projects in an uncertain world can be determined in several ways. One of these methods is real options valuation which arose from financial option valuation theory. On the other hand fuzzy set theory was developed as a mathematical framework to capture uncertainty in project management. The valuation of real options using fuzzy numbers represents an important refinement to determining capital projects' feasibility using the real options approach. The aim of this study is to determine whether the deferral of the decommissioning time (by a decade) of an electricity-gen

Abstract:

The pricing of options is one of the key problems in mathematical finance. In recent years, pricing models that are based on the continuous time random walk (CTRW), an anomalous diffusive random walk model widely used in physics, have been introduced. In this thesis, we investigate the pricing of European call options with CTRW and generalized CTRW models within the Black-Scholes framework. Here, the non-Markovian character of the underlying pricing model is manifest in Black-Scholes PDEs with fractional time derivatives containing memory terms.

Due to the high-dimensionality of the problem, we propose a Monte Carlo simulation scheme that combines the full truncation Euler scheme for the stochastic volatility component and the stochastic short rates with the log-Euler scheme for the exchange rate.
