A basket option is an option whose underlying is a portfolio of individual stock prices. Due to the unknown dependence structure between stocks, basket option pricing relies in general on approximations or numerical methods like Monte Carlo simulation. We propose a methodology for pricing basket...

In arbitrage-free but incomplete markets, the equivalent martingale measure Q for pricing traded assets is not uniquely determined. A possible approach when it comes to choosing a particular pricing measure is to consider the one that is "closest" to the physical probability measure P, where...

In this paper, we introduce two classes of indices which can be used to measure the market perception concerning the degree of dependency that exists between a set of random variables, representing different stock prices at a fixed future date. The construction of these measures is based on the...
