Book American Option Pricing Using GARCH Models and the Normal Inverse Gaussian Distribution

Download or read book American Option Pricing Using GARCH Models and the Normal Inverse Gaussian Distribution written by Lars Stentoft and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we propose a feasible way to price American options in a model with time varying volatility and conditional skewness and leptokurtosis using GARCH processes and the Normal inverse Gaussian distribution. We show how the risk neutral dynamics can be obtained in this model, we interpret the effect of the riskneutralization, and we derive approximation procedures which allow for a computationally efficient implementation of the model. When the model is estimated on financial returns data the results indicate that compared to the Gaussian case the extension is important. A study of the model properties shows that there are important option pricing differences compared to the Gaussian case as well as to the symmetric special case. A large scale empirical examination shows that our model outperforms the Gaussian case for pricing options on three large US stocks as well as a major index. In particular, improvements are found when considering the smile in implied standard deviations.

Book A Time Series Approach to Option Pricing

Download or read book A Time Series Approach to Option Pricing written by Christophe Chorro and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current world financial scene indicates at an intertwined and interdependent relationship between financial market activity and economic health. This book explains how the economic messages delivered by the dynamic evolution of financial asset returns are strongly related to option prices. The Black Scholes framework is introduced and by underlining its shortcomings, an alternative approach is presented that has emerged over the past ten years of academic research, an approach that is much more grounded on a realistic statistical analysis of data rather than on ad hoc tractable continuous time option pricing models. The reader then learns what it takes to understand and implement these option pricing models based on time series analysis in a self-contained way. The discussion covers modeling choices available to the quantitative analyst, as well as the tools to decide upon a particular model based on the historical datasets of financial returns. The reader is then guided into numerical deduction of option prices from these models and illustrations with real examples are used to reflect the accuracy of the approach using datasets of options on equity indices.

Book Analysis of the garch option pricing model using telebras calls

Download or read book Analysis of the garch option pricing model using telebras calls written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este trabalho procura confirmar a hipótese de o modelo de apreçamento de opções GARCH reduzir alguns dos já amplamente estudados vieses do modelo de Black & Scholes, utilizando opções de compra da Telebras no período julho de 1995 a junho de 2000. Para isso, comparam-se os preços encontrados por intermédio do modelo GARCH com os do modelo de Black & Scholes, cotejando-os com os preços de mercado. Os resultados indicaram que o modelo GARCH foi capaz de diminuir alguns dos vieses, principalmente para opções fora-do-dinheiro com curto tempo para o vencimento. Desta forma, o modelo GARCH se mostrou uma alternativa eficaz ao modelo de Black e Scholes, sobretudo para opções com pouca liquidez, nas quais não é possível a utilização da volatilidade implícita da equação de Black e Scholes.

Book A Closed Form GARCH Option Pricing Model

Download or read book A Closed Form GARCH Option Pricing Model written by Steven L. Heston and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a closed-form option pricing formula for a spot asset whose variance follows a GARCH process. The model allows for correlation between returns of the spot asset and variance and also admits multiple lags in the dynamics of the GARCH process. The single factor (one lag) version of this model contains Heston's (1993) stochastic volatility model as a diffusion limit and therefore unifies the discrete GARCH and continuous-time stochastic volatility literature of option pricing. The new model provides the first option formula for a random volatility model that is solely a function of observables; all the parameters can be easily estimated from the history of asset prices, observed at discreteintervals. Empirical analysis on Samp;P500 index options shows the single factor version of the GARCH model to be a substantial improvement over the Black-Scholes (1973) model. The GARCH model continues to substantially outperform the Black-Scholes model even when the Black-Scholes model is updated every period while the parameters of the GARCH model are held constant. The improvement is due largely to the ability of the GARCH model to describe the correlation of volatility with spot returns. This allows the GARCH model to capture strike price biases in the Black-Scholes model that give rise to the skew in implied volatilities in the index options market.

Book General Equilibrium Option Pricing Method  Theoretical and Empirical Study

Download or read book General Equilibrium Option Pricing Method Theoretical and Empirical Study written by Jian Chen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book mainly addresses the general equilibrium asset pricing method in two aspects: option pricing and variance risk premium. First, volatility smile and smirk is the famous puzzle in option pricing. Different from no arbitrage method, this book applies the general equilibrium approach in explaining the puzzle. In the presence of jump, investors impose more weights on the jump risk than the volatility risk, and as a result, investors require more jump risk premium which generates a pronounced volatility smirk. Second, based on the general equilibrium framework, this book proposes variance risk premium and empirically tests its predictive power for international stock market returns.

Book An Empirical Test of the Hull White Option Pricing Model

Download or read book An Empirical Test of the Hull White Option Pricing Model written by Sofiane Aboura and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrado and Su (1998) implemented the stochastic volatility model of Hull and White (1988) for a particular case where variance is equal to its long-term mean. This note provides a slight correction to the series expansion derived by Corrado and Su (1998) and proposes a simulation to display the effect of this error.

Book A GARCH Option Pricing Model with Filtered Historical Simulation

Download or read book A GARCH Option Pricing Model with Filtered Historical Simulation written by Giovanni Barone-Adesi and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a new method for pricing options based on GARCH models with filtered historical innovations. In an incomplete market framework, we allow for different distributions of historical and pricing return dynamics, which enhances the model's flexibility to fit market option prices. An extensive empirical analysis based on Samp;P 500 index options shows that our model outperforms other competing GARCH pricing models and ad hoc Black-Scholes models. We show that the flexible change of measure, the asymmetric GARCH volatility, and the nonparametric innovation distribution induce the accurate pricing performance of our model. Using a nonparametric approach, we obtain decreasing state-price densities per unit probability as suggested by economic theory and corroborating our GARCH pricing model. Implied volatility smiles appear to be explained by asymmetric volatility and negative skewness of filtered historical innovations.
