La presente investigación intenta replicar el trabajo de Fama y French (1992) para el mercado chileno, dentro de cierto marco de limitaciones generales. Específicamente, el objetivo de la investigación es evaluar el rol conjunto del beta de mercado, el tamaño, la razón utilidad a precio, el...

In the context of arbitrage-free modelling of financial derivatives, we introduce a novel calibration technique for models in the affine- quadratic class for the purpose of contingent claims pricing and risk- management. In particular, we aim at calibrating a stochastic volatility jump diffusion...

For option whose striking price equals the forward price of the underlying asset, the Black-Scholes pricing formula can be approximated in closed-form. A interesting result is that the derived equation is not only very simple in structure but also that it can be immediately inverted to obtain an...

EU accession requires, inter alia, free movements of capital. If a massive capital outflow occurs, the central banks from the accession or acceding countries may carry two types of intervention: on money market, and introducing restrictions on capital account. The paper explains when is...

A generalized Black-Scholes formula is presented for the case when the volatility part of the percentage changes in a stock price obeys a mean reverting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. When the parameter of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process converges to zero the generalized formula converges to the...

This paper shows that the forward rates process discretized by a single time step together with a separability assumption on the volatility function allows for representation by a low-dimensional Markov process. This in turn leads to e±cient pricing by for example finite differences. We then...

This article presents a novel approach for calculating swap vega per bucket in the Libor BGM model. We show that for some forms of the volatility an approach based on re-calibration may lead to a large uncertainty in estimated swap vega, as the instantaneous volatility structure may be distorted...
