This paper studies the accuracy of a singular perturbation method for option pricing under a stochastic volatility model ([8]). First, through numerical experiments we confirm that the first order approximation provides sufficiently accurate option prices in a fast mean-reversion case of the...

This paper studies portfolio selection and performance analysis of hedge funds located or invested in Asia-Pacific. It investigates the characteristics of the funds' returns and recommends optimization methods to create a 'Fund-of-Funds'. The returns of the hedge funds are then decomposed into...

This paper studies the probability distribution and option pricing for drawdown in a stochastic volatility environment. We derive an analytical approximation formula for them by applying a singular perturbation method ([12]). Then, numerical examples show that the instantaneous correlation...

This paper provides a new method to construct a dynamic optimal portfolio for asset management. This method generates a target payoff distribution using the cheapest dynamic trading strategy. As a practical example, the method is applied to hedge fund replication. This dynamic portfolio strategy...

This paper provides a new hedge fund replication method, which extends Kat and Palaro (2005) and Papageorgiou, Remillard and Hocquard (2008) to multiple trading assets with both long and short positions. The method generates a target payoff distribution by the cheapest dynamic portfolio. The...
