Taking a portfolio perspective on option pricing and hedging, we show that within the standard Black …) hedging the total risk of each option separately, the correct hedge portfolio in discrete time eliminates linear (delta) as … indefinitely. This ties the literature on option pricing and hedging closer together with the APT literature in its focus on …

in discrete time. Therefore, the hedging bias which originates from the effects of time-discretising strategies is … analysed. It turns out that a systematic hedging bias can only be avoided if a discrete-time hedging model is used. It is shown … how the robustness property for convex payoffs is recovered while at the same time the hedging bias is avoided. …

In both complete and incomplete markets we consider the problem of fulfilling a financial obligation xc as well as possible at time T if the initial capital is not sufficient to hedge xc. This introduces a new risk into the market and our main aim is to minimize this shortfall risk by making use...

European call options are priced when the uncertainty driving the stock price follows the V. G. stochastic process (Madan and Seneta 1990). The incomplete markets equilibrium change of measure is approximated and identified using the log return mean. variance, and kurtosis. An exact equilibrium...

In this article we evaluate the pricing performance of the rather simple but revolutionary Black-Scholes model and one of the more complex techniques (neural networks) on the European-style S&P Index call and put options over the period of 1.6.2006 till 8.6.2007. Our results on call options show...

We consider two sequences of Markov chains induc- ing equivalent measures on the discrete path space. We estab- lish conditions under which these two measures converge weakly to measures induced on the Wiener space by weak solutions of two SDEs, which are unique in the sense of probability law....
