This paper presents a simulation study of hedging long-dated futures options, in the Rabinovitch (1989) model which assumes correlated dynamics between spot asset prices and interest rates. Under this model and when the maturity of the hedging instruments match the maturity of the option,...

Jump risk plays an important role in current financial markets, yet it is a risk that cannot be easily measured and hedged. We numerically evaluate American call options under stochastic volatility, stochastic interest rates and jumps in both the asset price and volatility. By employing the...

This paper considers the American option pricing problem under regime-switching by using the method-of-lines (MOL) scheme. American option prices in each regime involve prices in all other regimes. We treat the prices from other regimes implicitly, thus guaranteeing consistency. Iterative...

This paper analyzes the importance of asset and volatility jumps in American option pricing models. Using the Heston (1993) stochastic volatility model with asset and volatility jumps and the Hull and White (1987) short rate model, American options are numerically evaluated by the Method of...
