This paper investigates a retrospective on the Journal of Derivatives and Quantitative Studies (JDQS) on its 30th anniversary based on bibliometric. JDQSs yearly publications, citations, impact factors, and centrality indices grew up in early 2010s, and diminished in 2020. Keyword network...

In an empirical study of Standard & Poor's 500 index options, this paper analyses the predictability of future market excess returns by means of decomposed higher-moment risk premiums. The study proposes a new measure of kurtosis risk premium and suggests a decomposition of higher-moment risk...

This research focuses on the estimation of measures of rare disaster concerns from option prices. We propose a new smile construction approach to obtain the required continuum of implied volatilities from discretely sampled observations that are affected by microstructure noise. We extrapolate...

We propose option-implied measures of conditional asymmetry based upon quantiles and expectiles inferred from weekly options. All quantities are by construction forward looking and estimated non-parametrically through a novel arbitrage-free natural smoothing spline technique that produces quick...

This study provides an in-depth analysis of how to estimate risk-neutral moments robustly. A simulation and an empirical study show that estimating risk- neutral moments presents a trade-off between (1) the bias of estimates caused by a limited strike price domain and (2) the variance of...

This paper empirically examines the relationship between trading volume and conditional volatility of returns in the Tunisian stock market within the framework of the mixture of distribution hypothesis (MDH) and the sequential information arrival hypothesis (SIAH). Through this study, we...

This article introduces the rough path-dependent volatility (RPDV) model, a model structurally adapted to jointly capture two major empirical features of volatility: its rough behavior and its path-dependence.After presenting it in its general form and its link with other existing models in the...

The investment industry lacks an unified framework for handling derivative instruments in general portfolio management. With the increased use of derivatives, there is a need for a framework that aligns fundamental terminology and concepts. The main challenges with the current practices are...

Turkish Abstract: İlk defa Chicago Opsiyon Borsası tarafından 1993 yılında oluşturulan volatilite endeksi (VIX) piyasalardaki korkunun derecesini ölçen bir endeks olup, finansal piyasaların gelecekteki belirsizlikleri hakkında bilgi sağlaması nedeniyle dünya genelinde takip edilen...

This presentation introduces the rough path-dependent volatility model (RPDVM). After defining the model and its different components, the presentation focuses on various specifications of the RPDVM that already exist in the literature. Finally, a Markovian approximation of the model is presented
