چکیده

We show that pricing a big class of relevant options by hedging and noarbitrage can be extended beyond semimartingale models. To this end we construct a subclass of self-financing portfolios that contains hedges for these options, but does not contain arbitrage opportunities, even if the stock price process is a nonsemimartingale of some special type. Moreover, we show that the option prices depend essentially only on a path property of the stock price process, viz. on the quadratic variation. We end the paper by giving no-arbitrage results even with stopping times for our model class.

No-arbitrage pricing beyond semimartingales

We show how no-arbitrage pricing can be extended to some non-semimartingale models by restricting the class of admissible strategies. However, this restricted class is big enough to cover hedges for relevant options. Moreover, we show that the hedging prices depend essentially only on a path property of the stock price process, viz. on the quadratic variation. As a consequence, we can incorpora...

Sharpe-ratio pricing and hedging of contingent claims in incomplete markets by convex programming

We analyze the problem of pricing and hedging contingent claims in a financial market described by a multi-period, discrete-time, finite-state scenario tree using an arbitrage-adjusted Sharpe-ratio criterion. We show that the writer’s and buyer’s pricing problems are formulated as conic convex optimization problems which allow to pass to dual problems over martingale measures and yield tighter ...

A Note on the Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing under Model Uncertainty

We show that the recent results on the Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing and the super-hedging theorem in the context of model uncertainty can be extended to the case in which the options available for static hedging (hedging options) are quoted with bid-ask spreads. In this set-up, we need to work with the notion of robust no-arbitrage which turns out to be equivalent to no-arbitrage under ...

Mean-variance hedging in large financial markets

We consider a mean-variance hedging (MVH) problem for an arbitrage-free large financial market, i.e. a financial market with countably many risky assets modelled by a sequence of continuous semimartingales. By using the stochastic integration theory for a sequence of semimartingales developed in De Donno and Pratelli (2003), we extend the results about change of numéraire and MVH of Gourieroux,...

Asymptotic Maturity Behavior of the Term Structure

Pricing and hedging of long-term interest rate sensitive products require to extrapolate the term structure beyond observable maturities. For the resulting limiting term structure we show two results by postulating no arbitrage in a bond market with infinitely increasing maturities: long zero-bond yields and long forward rates (i) are monotonically increasing and (ii) equal their minimal future...
