This paper presents a set of probability density functions for Euribor outturns in three months’ time, estimated from the prices of options on Euribor futures. It is the first official and freely available dataset to span the complete history of Euribor futures options, thus comprising over...

In this paper, we propose a novel parametric approach to extract the implied risk-neutral density function from a cross-section of call option prices. The method is based on the framework proposed by Orosi (2011), who presents a multi-parameter extension of the models of Figlewski (2002) and...

Most of the empirical studies on stochastic volatility dynamics favor the 3/2 specification over the square-root (CIR …) process in the Heston model. In the context of option pricing, the 3/2 stochastic volatility model is reported to be able to … capture the volatility skew evolution better than the Heston model. In this article, we make a thorough investigation on the …

On the other hand, multifactor stochastic volatility models are able to account for the existence of stochastic … that the consideration of additional volatility factors in the context of stochastic volatility models allows us to …

We study a new class of three-factor affine option pricing models with interdependent volatility dynamics and a … stochastic skewness component unrelated to volatility shocks. These properties are useful in order (i) to model a term structure … of implied volatility skews more consistent with the data and (ii) to capture comovements of short and long term skews …

We study whether prices of traded options contain information about future extreme market events. Our option-implied conditional expectation of market loss due to tail events, or tail loss measure, predicts future market returns, magnitude, and probability of the market crashes, beyond and above...
