In this paper we investigate the possible values of basket options. Instead of postulating a model and pricing the basket option using that model, we consider the set of all models which are consistent with the observed prices of vanilla options of all strikes. In the case of basket options on two components we find, within this class, the model for which the price of the basket option is smallest. This price, as discovered by Rapuch and Roncalli, is associated to the lower Fréchet copula. We complement their result in this paper by describing an optimal subreplicating strategy. This strategy is associated with an explicit portfolio which consists of being long and short a series of calls with strikes chosen as the zeros of an auxiliary function.  相似文献

This paper develops a method for pricing bivariate contingent claims under General Autoregressive Conditionally Heteroskedastic (GARCH) process. As the association between the underlying assets may vary over time, the dynamic copula with time-varying parameter offers a better alternative to any static model for dependence structure and even to the dynamic copula model determined by dynamic dependence measure. Therefore, the proposed method proves to play an important role in pricing bivariate options. The approach is illustrated with one type of better-of-two-markets claims: call option on the better performer of Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Composite Indexes. Results show that the option prices obtained by the time-varying copula model differ substantially from the prices implied by the static copula model and even the dynamic copula model derived from the dynamic dependence measure. Moreover, the empirical work displays the advantages of the suggested method.  相似文献

The adoption of copula functions is suggested in order to price bivariate contingent claims. Copulas enable the marginal distributions extracted from vertical spreads in the options markets to be imbedded in a multivariate pricing kernel. It is proved that such a kernel is a copula function, and that its super-replication strategy is represented by the Fréchet bounds. Applications provided include prices for binary digital options, options on the minimum and options to exchange one asset for another. For each of these products, no-arbitrage pricing bounds, as well as values consistent with the independence of the underlying assets are provided. As a final reference value, a copula function calibrated on historical data is used.  相似文献

In this paper, we discuss a copula defined by the Gaussian subordination method. The copula can capture the dependence between extreme events, and asymmetric dependence, which are observed in empirical financial return distributions. We further perform an empirical test for this new copula against the standard Gaussian copula using 10 years daily returns of the Standard&Poor’s 500 (S&P500) and the Deutscher Aktien Index (DAX) equity market indices.  相似文献

Static super-replicating strategies for a class of exotic options   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
In this paper, we investigate static super-replicating strategies for European-type call options written on a weighted sum of asset prices. This class of exotic options includes Asian options and basket options among others. We assume that there exists a market where the plain vanilla options on the different assets are traded and hence their prices can be observed in the market. Both the infinite market case (where prices of the plain vanilla options are available for all strikes) and the finite market case (where only a finite number of plain vanilla option prices are observed) are considered. We prove that the finite market case converges to the infinite market case when the number of observed plain vanilla option prices tends to infinity.We show how to construct a portfolio consisting of the plain vanilla options on the different assets, whose pay-off super-replicates the pay-off of the exotic option. As a consequence, the price of the super-replicating portfolio is an upper bound for the price of the exotic option. The super-hedging strategy is model-free in the sense that it is expressed in terms of the observed option prices on the individual assets, which can be e.g. dividend paying stocks with no explicit dividend process known. This paper is a generalization of the work of Simon et al. [Simon, S., Goovaerts, M., Dhaene, J., 2000. An easy computable upper bound for the price of an arithmetic Asian option. Insurance Math. Econom. 26 (2–3), 175–184] who considered this problem for Asian options in the infinite market case. Laurence and Wang [Laurence, P., Wang, T.H., 2004. What’s a basket worth? Risk Mag. 17, 73–77] and Hobson et al. [Hobson, D., Laurence, P., Wang, T.H., 2005. Static-arbitrage upper bounds for the prices of basket options. Quant. Fin. 5 (4), 329–342] considered this problem for basket options, in the infinite as well as in the finite market case.As opposed to Hobson et al. [Hobson, D., Laurence, P., Wang, T.H., 2005. Static-arbitrage upper bounds for the prices of basket options. Quant. Fin. 5 (4), 329–342] who use Lagrange optimization techniques, the proofs in this paper are based on the theory of integral stochastic orders and on the theory of comonotonic risks.  相似文献

Given a basket option on two or more assets in a one‐period static hedging setting, the paper considers the problem of maximizing and minimizing the basket option price subject to the constraints of known option prices on the component stocks and consistency with forward prices and treat it as an optimization problem. Sharp upper bounds are derived for the general n‐asset case and sharp lower bounds for the two‐asset case, both in closed forms, of the price of the basket option. In the case n = 2 examples are given of discrete distributions attaining the bounds. Hedge ratios are also derived for optimal sub and super replicating portfolios consisting of the options on the individual underlying stocks and the stocks themselves.  相似文献

We evaluate two coordinate transformation techniques in combination with grid stretching for pricing basket options in a sparse grid setting. The sparse grid technique is a basic technique for solving a high-dimensional partial differential equation. By creating a small hypercube sub-grid in the ‘composite’ sparse grid we can also determine hedge parameters accurately. We evaluate these techniques for multi-asset examples with up to five underlying assets in the basket.  相似文献

Copula method has been widely applied to model the correlation among underlying assets in financial market. In this paper, we propose to use the multivariate Fréchet copula family presented in J. P. Yang et al. [Insurance Math. Econom., 2009, 45: 139–147] to price multivariate financial instruments whose payoffs depend on the kth realization of the underlying assets and collateralized debt obligation (CDO). The advantage of the multivariate Fréchet copula is discussed. Empirical study shows that such copula family gives a better fitting to CDO’s market price than Gaussian copula for some derivatives.  相似文献

在不指定时间序列结构的情况下,我们的分布模型是基于多变量离散时间的相应马尔可夫族和相关变量一维的边际分布.这样的模型可以同时处理时间序列之间的相互依赖和每个时间序列沿时间方向的依赖.具体的参数copula被指定为倾斜-t. 倾斜-t Copla能够处理不对称,偏斜和粗尾的数据分布.三个股票指数日均收益的实证研究表明,倾斜-t copula的马尔可夫模型要比以下模型更好:倾斜正态Copula马可夫, t-copula马可夫, 倾斜-t copula但无马尔可夫特性.  相似文献

In this article, copulas associated to multivariate conditional distributions in an Archimedean model are characterized. It is shown that this popular class of dependence structures is closed under the operation of conditioning, but that the associated conditional copula has a different analytical form in general. It is also demonstrated that the extremal copula for conditional Archimedean distributions is no longer the Fréchet upper bound, but rather a member of the Clayton family. Properties of these conditional distributions as well as conditional versions of tail dependence indices are also considered.  相似文献

In this paper we propose forecasting market risk measures, such as Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES), for large dimensional portfolios via copula modeling. For that we compare several high dimensional copula models, from naive ones to complex factor copulas, which are able to simultaneously tackle the curse of dimensionality and introduce a high level of complexity into the model. We explore both static and dynamic copula fitting. In the dynamic case we allow different levels of flexibility for the dependence parameters which are driven by a GAS (Generalized Autoregressive Scores) model, in the spirit of Oh and Patton (2015). Our empirical results, for assets negotiated at Brazilian BOVESPA stock market from January, 2008 to December, 2014, suggest that, compared to the other copula models, the GAS dynamic factor copula approach has a superior performance in terms of AIC (Akaike Information Criterion) and a non-inferior performance with respect to VaR and ES forecasting.  相似文献

A useful application for copula functions is modeling the dynamics in the conditional moments of a time series. Using copulas, one can go beyond the traditional linear ARMA (p,q) modeling, which is solely based on the behavior of the autocorrelation function, and capture the entire dependence structure linking consecutive observations. This type of serial dependence is best represented by a canonical vine decomposition, and we illustrate this idea in the context of emerging stock markets, modeling linear and nonlinear temporal dependences of Brazilian series of realized volatilities. However, the analysis of intraday data collected from e‐markets poses some specific challenges. The large amount of real‐time information calls for heavy data manipulation, which may result in gross errors. Atypical points in high‐frequency intraday transaction prices may contaminate the series of daily realized volatilities, thus affecting classical statistical inference and leading to poor predictions. Therefore, in this paper, we propose to robustly estimate pair‐copula models using the weighted minimum distance and the weighted maximum likelihood estimates (WMLE). The excellent performance of these robust estimates for pair‐copula models are assessed through a comprehensive set of simulations, from which the WMLE emerged as the best option for members of the elliptical copula family. We evaluate and compare alternative volatility forecasts and show that the robustly estimated canonical vine‐based forecasts outperform the competitors.

We pose the problem of generalizing Dupire's equation for the price of call options on a basket of underlying assets. We present an analogue of Dupire's equation that holds in the case of several underlying assets provided the volatility is time dependent but not asset-price dependent. We deduce it from a relation that seems to be of interest on its own.  相似文献

Tail order of copulas can be used to describe the strength of dependence in the tails of a joint distribution. When the value of tail order is larger than the dimension, it may lead to tail negative dependence. First, we prove results on conditions that lead to tail negative dependence for Archimedean copulas. Using the conditions, we construct new parametric copula families that possess upper tail negative dependence. Among them, a copula based on a scale mixture with a generalized gamma random variable (GGS copula) is useful for modeling asymmetric tail negative dependence. We propose mixed copula regression based on the GGS copula for aggregate loss modeling of a medical expenditure panel survey dataset. For this dataset, we find that there exists upper tail negative dependence between loss frequency and loss severity, and the introduction of tail negative dependence structures significantly improves the aggregate loss modeling.  相似文献

Given an intensity-based credit risk model, this paper studies dependence structure between default intensities. To model this structure, we use a multivariate shot noise intensity process, where jumps occur simultaneously and their sizes are correlated. Through very lengthy algebra, we obtain explicitly the joint survival probability of the integrated intensities by using the truncated invariant Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula with exponential marginal distributions. We also apply our theoretical result to pricing basket default swap spreads. This result can provide a useful guide for credit risk management.  相似文献

This paper combines copula functions with GARCH-type models to construct the conditional joint distribution, which is used to estimate Value-at-Risk (VaR) of an equally weighted portfolio comprising crude oil futures and natural gas futures in energy market. Both constant and time-varying copulas are applied to fit the dependence structure of the two assets returns. The findings show that the constant Student t copula is a good compromise for effectively fitting the dependence structure between crude oil futures and natural gas futures. Moreover, the skewed Student t distribution has a better fit than Normal and Student t distribution to the marginal distribution of each asset. Asymmetries and excess kurtosis are found in marginal distributions as well as in dependence. We estimate VaR of the underlying portfolio to be 95% and 99%, by using the Monte Carlo simulation. Then using backtesting, we compare the out-of-sample forecasting performances of VaR estimated by different models.  相似文献

Abstract

We study three classes of perpetual option with multiple uncertainties and American-style exercise boundaries, using a partial differential equation-based approach. A combination of accurate numerical techniques and asymptotic analyses is implemented, with each approach informing and confirming the other. The first two examples we study are a put basket option and a call basket option, both involving two stochastic underlying assets, whilst the third is a (novel) class of real option linked to stochastic demand and costs (the details of the modelling for this are described in the paper). The Appendix addresses the issue of pricing American-style perpetual options involving (just) one stochastic underlying, but in which the volatility is also modelled stochastically, using the Heston (1993) framework.  相似文献

In this paper we propose pricing bounds for European-style discrete arithmetic Asian basket options in a Black and Scholes framework. We start from methods used for basket options and Asian options. First, we use the general approach for deriving upper and lower bounds for stop-loss premia of sums of non-independent random variables as in Kaas et al. [Upper and lower bounds for sums of random variables, Insurance Math. Econom. 27 (2000) 151–168] or Dhaene et al. [The concept of comonotonicity in actuarial science and finance: theory, Insurance Math. Econom. 31(1) (2002) 3–33]. We generalize the methods in Deelstra et al. [Pricing of arithmetic basket options by conditioning, Insurance Math. Econom. 34 (2004) 55–57] and Vanmaele et al. [Bounds for the price of discrete sampled arithmetic Asian options, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 185(1) (2006) 51–90]. Afterwards we show how to derive an analytical closed-form expression for a lower bound in the non-comonotonic case. Finally, we derive upper bounds for Asian basket options by applying techniques as in Thompson [Fast narrow bounds on the value of Asian options, Working Paper, University of Cambridge, 1999] and Lord [Partially exact and bounded approximations for arithmetic Asian options, J. Comput. Finance 10 (2) (2006) 1–52]. Numerical results are included and on the basis of our numerical tests, we explain which method we recommend depending on moneyness and time-to-maturity.  相似文献
