We derive a risk-neutral pricing model for discrete dynamic guaranteed funds with geometric Gaussian underlying security price process. We propose a dynamic hedging strategy by adding a gamma factor to the conventional delta. Simulation results demonstrate that, when hedging discretely, the...

Over the past decade, research studies on benefits, critical success factors, difficulties, process, conceptual and theoretical models of construction partnering have been ubiquitous in the construction management discipline. In fact, there is adequate evidence that an increasing number of...

In this article we obtain the characteristic functions (c.f.'s) for 1-spherical distributions and simplify that of the 1-norm symmetric distributions to an expression of a finite sum. These forms of c.f.'s can be used to derive the probability density functions (p.d.f.'s) of linear combinations...
