Pricing, No-arbitrage Bounds and Robust Hedging of Installment Options
نویسندگان
چکیده
An installment option is a European option in which the premium, instead of being paid up-front, is paid in a series of installments. If all installments are paid the holder receives the exercise value, but the holder has the right to terminate payments on any payment date, in which case the option lapses with no further payments on either side. We discuss pricing and risk management for these options, in particular the use of static hedges, and also study a continuous-time limit in which premium is paid at a certain rate per unit time.

Installment Options and Static Hedging
An installment option is a European option in which the premium, instead of being paid up-front, is paid in a series of installments. If all installments are paid the holder receives the exercise value, but the holder has the right to terminate payments on any payment date, in which case the option lapses with no further payments on either side. We discuss pricing and risk management for these ...
متن کاملRobust pricing and hedging of double no-touch options
Double no-touch options, contracts which pay out a fixed amount provided an underlying asset remains within a given interval, are commonly traded, particularly in FX markets. In this work, we establish model-free bounds on the price of these options based on the prices of more liquidly traded options (call and digital call options). Key steps are the construction of superand sub-hedging strateg...
متن کاملValuation of installment option by penalty method
In this paper, installment options on the underlying asset which evolves according to Black-Scholes model and pays constant dividend to its owner will be considered. Applying arbitrage pricing theory, the non-homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation governing the value of installment option is derived. Then, penalty method is used to value the European continuous installment call opt...
متن کاملA 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 ...
متن کاملSharpe-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 ...
