Abstract:
In this paper we propose an efficient Monte Carlo scheme for simulating the stochastic volatility model of Heston (1993) enhanced by a nonparametric local volatility component. This hybrid model combines the main advantages of the Heston model and the local volatility model introduced by Dupire (1994) and Derman & Kani (1998). In particular, the additional local volatility component acts as a "compensator" that bridges the mismatch between the nonperfectly calibrated Heston model and the market quotes for European-type options. By means of numerical experiments we show that our scheme enab

Abstract:
We propose novel nonparametric estimators for stochastic volatility and the volatility of volatility. In doing so, we relax the assumption of a constant volatility of volatility and therefore, we allow the volatility of volatility to vary over time. Our methods are exceedingly simple and far simpler than the existing ones. Using intraday prices for the Standard & Poor’s 500 equity index, the estimates revealed strong evidence that both volatility and the volatility of volatility are stochastic. We also proceeded in a Monte Carlo simulation analysis and found that the estimates were reasona

AbstractThe implementation of hedging strategies for variable annuity products requires the calculation of market risk sensitivities (or “Greeks”). The complex, path-dependent nature of these products means that these sensitivities are typically estimated by Monte Carlo methods. Standard market practice is to use a “bump and revalue” method in which sensitivities are approximated by finite differences. As well as requiring multiple valuations of the product, this approach is often unreliable for higher-order Greeks, such as gamma, and alternative pathwise (PW) and likelihood-ratio estimators s

Abstract:
We consider sequential auctions wherein seller and bidder agents need to price goods on sale at the 'right' market price. We propose algorithms based on a binomial model for both the seller and buyer. Then, we consider the problem of calibrating pricing models to market data. To this end, we studied a stochastic volatility model used for option pricing, derived, and analyzed Monte Carlo estimators for computing the gradient of a certain payoff function using Finite Differencing and Algorithmic Differentiation. We then assessed the accuracy and efficiency of both methods as well as their impact

Abstract:
Three computational techniques for approximation of counterparty exposure for financial derivatives are presented. The exposure can be used to quantify so-called Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) and Potential Future Exposure (PFE), which are of utmost importance for modern risk management in the financial industry, especially since the recent credit crisis. The three techniques all involve a Monte Carlo path discretization and simulation of the underlying entities. Along the generated paths, the corresponding values and distributions are computed during the entire lifetime of the option. Opti

Abstract:
In this paper, the valuation of the discrete barrier options on the condition that the underlying asset price process follows the GARCH volatility and double exponential jump is studied. We derived an analytical approximation of the characteristic function for the underlying log-asset price. Then, a quasianalytical approximate formula of the price of the discrete barrier option is obtained based the on Fourier-cosine method. Numerical examples show that the Fourier-cosine method is fast and efficient for pricing discrete barrier options compared with the Monte Carlo simulation method. Finally,

Abstract:
In this paper, a closed-form pricing formula in the form of an infinite series for European call options is derived for the Heston stochastic volatility model under a chosen martingale measure. Given that markets with the stochastic volatility are incomplete, there exists a number of equivalent martingale measures and consequently investors face a problem of making a choice of appropriate measure when they price options. The one we adopt here is the so-called minimal entropy martingale measure shown to be related to the expected utility maximization theory (Frittelli 2000 Math. Finance10(1), 3

Abstract:
The Hobson–Rogers model is used to price derivative securities under the no-arbitrage condition in a stochastic volatility setting, preserving the completeness of the market. Here we are studying the rate of convergence of the Euler/Monte Carlo approximations, when pricing European, Asian and digital type options. The aim of the present work is to express the approximation error in terms of the time step size, denoted by h, used for the Euler scheme. We recover an already known result, obtained by other authors using PDE approximations, for European options. Namely we show that for a Lipschitz

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to test three parametric models in pricing and hedging higher-order moment swaps. Using vanilla option prices from the volatility surface of the Euro Stoxx 50 Index, the paper shows that the pricing accuracy of these models is very satisfactory under four different pricing error functions. The result is that taking a position in a third moment swap considerably improves the performance of the standard hedge of a variance swap based on a static position in the log-contract and a dynamic trading strategy. The position in the third moment swap is taken by running a Monte C

Abstract:
The access of distributed renewable energy enhances the uncertainty of the distribution network reliability, whereas the distribution network reliability evaluation using existing methods cannot fully reflect the stochastic volatility of islanding power supply and loads. For this reason the approach of active distribution network probabilistic reliability evaluation based on point estimation method was proposed. In the framework of Monte Carlo simulation, the islanding random variable was sampled and processed firstly; then the islanding probabilistic reliability was assessed with a nonlinear

Abstract:
This work aims to provide an efficient method to evaluate the Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) for a vulnerable European option, which is an option subject to some default event concerning the issuer solvability. Financial options traded in OTC markets are of this type. In particular, we compute the CVA in some popular stochastic volatility models such as SABR, Hull et al., which have proven to fit quite well market derivatives prices, admitting correlation with the default event. This choice covers the relevant case of Wrong Way Risk (WWR) when a credit deterioration determines an increase in th

This paper presents a model for the market making of options on a liquid stock. The stock price follows a generic stochastic volatility model under the real-world probability measure [Formula: see text]. Market participants price options on this stock under a risk-neutral pricing measure [Formula: see text], and they may misspecify the parameters controlling the dynamics of the volatility process. We first consider that there is a risk-neutral agent who is willing to make markets in an option on the stock, with the aim of maximizing the expected terminal wealth at maturity. Using standard tool
