There are several possibilities to introduce skewness into a symmetric distribution. One of these procedures applies … density. Within this work we show that this technique incorporates a well-defined parameter of skewness, i.e. that the … generated distributions are skewed to the right (left) if the parameter of skewness takes values less (greater) than one …

A generalization of the hyperbolic secant distribution which allows both for skewness and for leptokurtosis was given … which has a lot of nice properties but is not able to allow for skewness. For this reason, Fischer and Vaughan (2002 …) additionally introduced a skewness parameter by means of splitting the scale parameter and showed that most of the nice properties …

With the celebrated model of Black and Scholes in 1973 the development of modern option pricing models started. One of the assumptions of the Black and Scholes model is that the risky asset evolves according to a geometric Brownian motion which implies normally distributed log-returns. As...
