Tests for the existence and the sign of the volatility risk premium are often based on expected option hedging errors … the premium is the same as the sign of the mean hedging error for a large class of stochastic volatility option pricing …

We consider a stochastic volatility model of the mean-reverting type to describe the evolution of a firm’s values … default probability. Our simulation results indicate that the stochastic volatility model tends to predict higher default … probabilities than the corresponding Merton model if a firm’s credit quality is not too low. Otherwise the stochastic volatility …

The Heston model stands out from the class of stochastic volatility (SV) models mainly for two reasons. Firstly, the … process for the volatility is nonnegative and mean-reverting, which is what we observe in the markets. Secondly, there exists …

A discrete time model of financial markets is considered. It is assumed that the relative jumps of the risky security price are independent non-identically distributed random variables. In the focus of attention is the expected non-risky profit of the investor that arises when the jumps of the...

The linear Gaussian state space model for which the common variance istreated as a stochastic time-varying variable is considered for themodelling of economic time series. The focus of this paper is on thesimultaneous estimation of parameters related to the stochasticprocesses of the mean part...
