We consider a Markov switching regime and price a discount bond using a CIR-type short rate model. An explicit formula is obtained for the bond price which includes the solution of a matrix ODE. Our model is easy to calculate and captures the effect of regime uncertainty in the price and term...

We examine implications of introducing parameter uncertainty in endowment and production economies for index option premiums. We estimate two-state models of consumption and productivity growth using post-war U.S. data and allow for rational learning about unknown persistence of economic growth....

This paper investigates risk-neutral price of European option under dividend barrier strategy when cumulative log-return during time interval [0,t] of the underlying stock in the absence of dividends follows a Brownian motion with drift. Such a dividend barrier strategy means that in the...
