This paper investigates the risk exposure for options and proposes MaxVaR as an alternative risk measure which captures … the risk better than Value-at-Risk especially. While VaR is a measure of end-of-horizon risk, MaxVaR captures the interim … risk exposure of a position or a portfolio. MaxVaR is a more stringent risk measure as it assesses the risk during the risk …

We focus on two particular aspects of model risk: the inability of a chosen model to fit observed market prices at a … given point in time (calibration error) and the model risk due to the recalibration of model parameters (in contradiction to … model risk in a common framework, and consider the trade-offs between them when choosing a model and the frequency with …

This paper investigates dynamic correlations of stock-bond returns for different stock indices and bond maturities. Evidence in the US shows that stock-bond relations are time-varying and display a negative trend. The stock-bond correlations are negatively correlated with implied volatilities in...

We explore a multi-asset jump-diffusion pricing model, combining a systemic risk asset with several conditionally … assets that works even if the data are incomplete and asynchronous. Alternatively, to find risk-neutral parameters, the least … propose a Laplace-transform-based approach to computing Value at Risk (VaR) and conditional VaR (also known as the expected …

based on the superior volatility forecast for analyzing historical data. We extend the current litearure by measuring the … volatility of an underlying asset in the last predefined period and comparing the actual volatility in currency with historical … volatility in currency to make predictions of implied volatility. We calculated stock price volatility through an optimal holding …

We propose a fully data-driven approach to calibrate local stochastic volatility (LSV) models, circumventing in … particular the ad hoc interpolation of the volatility surface. To achieve this, we parametrize the leverage function by a family … be seen in the context of neural SDEs and (causal) generative adversarial networks: we generate volatility surfaces by …

We investigate the state dependence of the variance of the instantaneous variance of the S&P 500 index empirically. Time-series analysis of realized variance over a 20-year period shows strong evidence of an elasticity of variance of the variance parameter close to that of a log-normal model,...

This paper studies the effect of variance swap in hedging volatility risk under the mean-variance criterion. We … variance swap can be used to hedge against the volatility risk. In the second problem, only the bank account and the stock can … be traded in the market, which is incomplete since the idiosyncratic volatility risk is unhedgeable. Under an exponential …
