متن کاملStochastic risk premiums, stochastic skewness in currency options, and stochastic discount factors in international economies
We develop models of stochastic discount factors in international economies that produce stochastic risk premiums and stochastic skewness in currency options. We estimate the models using time-series returns and option prices on three currency pairs that form a triangular relation. Estimation shows that the average risk premium in Japan is larger than that in the US or the UK, the global risk p...
متن کاملPricing Foreign Currency and Cross-Currency Options Under GARCH
The main objective of this paper is to propose an alternative valuation framework for pricing foreign currency and cross-currency options, which is capable of accommodating existing empirical regularities. The paper generalizes the GARCH option pricing methodology of Duan (1995) to a two-country setting. Specifically, we assume a bivariate nonlinear GARCH system for the exchange rate and the fo...
متن کاملPricing Currency Options Under Stochastic Volatility
This paper investigates the relative pricing performance between constant volatility and stochastic volatility pricing models, based on a comprehensive sample of options on four currencies, including the British pound, Deutsche mark, Japanese yen and Swiss franc, traded frequently in the Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX) from 1994 to 2001. The results show that the model of Heston (1993) outpe...

This paper focuses on modeling foreign exchange return behavior that would result in more accurate currency options pricing. These alternative approaches namely, implied volatility model (IVM), realized volatility model (RVM) and GARCH (1,1) volatility model (GVM) are used in this study. The results, in general suggest that RVM outperforms both IVM and GVM in pricing currency options. In-sample...
