Resilient price impact of trading and the cost of illiquidity
We construct a model for liquidity risk and price impacts in a limit order book setting, and derive a wealth equation and a characterization of illiquidity costs for liquidity providers. The model has desirable stylized facts justified by empirical studies and contains all three components identified by Kyle (1985). We give conditions under which the model is arbitrage free. By considering the ...
متن کاملOptimal Illiquidity
We calculate the socially optimal level of illiquidity in a stylized retirement savings system. We solve the planner’s problem in an economy in which time-inconsistent households face a tradeoff between commitment and flexibility (Amador, Werning and Angeletos, 2006). We assume that the planner can set up multiple accounts for households: a perfectly liquid account and/or partially illiquid ret...
متن کاملBounds for the price of discrete arithmetic Asian options
In this paper the pricing of European-style discrete arithmetic Asian options with fixed and floating strike is studied by deriving analytical lower and upper bounds. In our approach we use a general technique for deriving upper (and lower) bounds for stop-loss premiums of sums of dependent random variables, as explained in Kaas, Dhaene and Goovaerts (2000), and additionally, the ideas of Roger...
متن کاملSystematic Risk and the Price Structure of Individual Equity Options∗
This study demonstrates the impact of systematic risk on the prices of individual equity options. The option prices are characterized by the level and slope of implied volatility curves, and the systematic risk is measured as the proportion of systematic variance in the total variance. Using daily option quotes on the S&P 100 index and its 30 largest component stocks, we show that, after contro...
متن کاملSpectral Expansions for Asian (Average Price) Options
Arithmetic Asian or average price options deliver payoffs based on the average underlying price over a prespecified time period. Asian options are an important family of derivative contracts with a wide variety of applications in currency, equity, interest rate, commodity, energy, and insurance markets. We derive two analytical formulas for the value of the continuously sampled arithmetic Asian...
