Regardless of the distributions of spot and futures returns, the hedge ratio determined by minimizing the portfolio's Aumann and Serrano (2008) index of riskiness is always smaller than the hedge ratio determined by minimizing the portfolio's variance. It is also demonstrated that the Foster and...

This paper analyzes the optimal production and hedging decisions of a competitive firm holding optimism and pessimism … on the output price distribution nor on the firm's preferences. Furthermore, the validity of the full-hedging theorem … the firm's optimism level above which it is never optimal for the firm to full-hedge even when an unbiased hedging …

We investigate the performance of the Deep Hedging framework under training paths beyond the (finite dimensional …) Markovian setup. In particular we analyse the hedging performance of the original architecture under rough volatility models … architectures capable of capturing the non-Markoviantity of time-series. Secondly, we analyse the hedging behaviour in these models …

We analyze hedging strategies that minimize tail risk measured by Value-at-Risk (VaR) or Conditional …-Value-at-Risk (CVaR). In particular, we derive first-order conditions characterizing VaR- and CVaR-minimal hedging with futures in regime …-switching models. Using cross-hedging examples, we theoretically and empirically demonstrate that tail-risk-minimal strategies can …

We investigate the optimal hedging strategy for a firm using options, where the role of production and basis risk are … portfolio is primarily affected by the amount of cash spent on the hedging. Also, we decompose the effect of production and … basis risk showing that the former affects hedging effectiveness while the latter drives the choice of the optimal contract …
