In this paper we consider the problem of pricing and hedging European derivatives written on two underlying assets, when individual marginal distributions are known. Our aim is twofold. First, we conduct a parallel analysis between implied volatility and implied correlation for spread options in...

Our first aim in this paper is to introduce a futures-based model able of capturing the main features displayed by Crude Oil futures and options contracts, such as the Samuelson volatility effect and the volatility smile. We calculate the joint characteristic function of two futures contracts in...

This paper deals with the application of Bernstein copulas to the pricing of derivatives written on several underlying assets. We review the main characteristics of this particular family of copulas. We then analyze their properties in a context of multi-asset derivatives pricing, with a focus...

In this paper we study the existence of arbitrage opportunities in a multi-asset market when risk-neutral marginal distributions of asset prices are known. We first propose an intuitive characterization of the absence of arbitrage opportunities in terms of copula functions. We then address the...

The aim of this paper is to obtain the risk-neutral density of an underlying asset price as a function of its option implied volatility smile. We derive a known closed form non-parametric expression for the density and decompose it into a sum of lognormal and adjustment terms. By analyzing this...
