existence of correlation term structure and correlation skew. The article shows that the Wishart specification can generate … different patterns corresponding to the correlation skew for a wide range of correlation term structures.Another advantage of … correlation premium and show that the consideration of stochastic correlation is a key element for the valuation of these …

We construct multi-currency models with stochastic volatility and correlated stochastic interest rates with a full matrix of correlations. We first deal with a foreign exchange (FX) model of Heston-type, in which the domestic and foreign interest rates are generated by the short-rate process of...

We price derivatives defined for different asset classes with a full stochastic dependence structure. We consider jointly geometric Brownian motions and mean-reversion processes with a a stochastic variance-covariance matrix driven by a Wishart process. These models cannot be treated within the...

In commodity and energy markets swing options allow the buyer to hedge against futures price fluctuations and to select its preferred delivery strategy within daily or periodic constraints, possibly fixed by observing quoted futures contracts. In this paper we focus on the natural gas market and...

Options on crude oil futures are the most actively traded commodity options. We develop a class of computationally efficient discrete-time jump models that allow for closed-form option valuation, and we use crude oil futures and options data to investigate the economic importance of jumps and...

We derive the valuation formula of a European call option on the spread of two cointegrated commodity prices, based on the GSC (Gibson-Schwartz with cointegration) model. We also analyze the American commodity spread option including the early exercise premium representation and an analytical...
