There is good empirical evidence to show that the financial series, whether stocks or indices, currencies or interest rates do not follow the log-normal random walk underlying the Black-Scholes model, which is the basis for most of the theory of options valuation. This article presents a...

In this paper, two univariate generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) option pricing models … effects into account. Furthermore, the accuracy of the GARCH option pricing model applied to Bitcoin is tested. Empirical … consistent with findings in the literature. In addition, the GARCH option pricing model provides realistic price discovery within …

Daily returns of financial assets are frequently found to exhibit positive autocorrelation at lag 1. When specifying a linear AR(l) conditional mean, one may ask how this predictability affects option prices. We investigate the dependence of option prices on autoregressive dynamics under...

In this paper, the generalised autoregressive heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model is applied to the pricing of … collateralised options in the South African equity market. Symmetric GARCH and nonlinear asymmetric GARCH (AGARCH) models are … surfaces. Finally, the effect of asymmetry is shown by the difference between the symmetric and asymmetric GARCH option price …

Characterizing asset return dynamics using volatility models is an important part of empirical finance. The existing literature favors some rather complex volatility specifications whose relative performance is usually assessed through their likelihood based on a time-series of asset returns....
