Pricing Asian Options for Jump Diffusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
We construct a sequence of functions that uniformly converge (on compact sets) to the price of an Asian option, which is written on a stock whose dynamics follow a jump diffusion. The convergence is exponentially fast. We show that each element in this sequence is the unique classical solution of a parabolic partial differential equation (not an integro-differential equation). As a result we obtain a fast numerical approximation scheme whose accuracy versus speed characteristics can be controlled. We analyze the performance of our numerical algorithm on several examples.

Analytical Valuation of Asian Options with Continuously Paying Dividends in Jump-Diffusion Models
We consider the problem of valuation of certain Asian options in the geometric jump-diffusion models with continuously dividend-paying assets. With the sources of diffusion risks and two primitive tradeable assets, the market in this model is, in general, incomplete, and so, there are more than one equivalent martingale measures and no-arbitrage prices. For this jump-diffusion model, we adopt t...
متن کاملPricing Asian Options under a General Jump Diffusion Model
We obtain a closed-form solution for the double-Laplace transform of Asian options under the hyper-exponential jump diffusion model (HEM). Similar results are only available previously in the special case of Black-Scholes model (BSM). Even in the case of BSM, our approach is simpler as we essentially use only the Ito's formula and do not need more advanced results such as those of Bessel proces...
متن کاملJump-Diffusion Models for Asset Pricing in Financial Engineering
In this survey we shall focus on the following issues related to jump-diffusion models for asset pricing in financial engineering. (1) The controversy over tailweight of distributions. (2) Identifying a risk-neutral pricing measure by using the rational expectations equilibrium. (3) Using Laplace transforms to pricing options, including European call/put options, path-dependent options, such as...
متن کاملOption Pricing on Commodity Prices Using Jump Diffusion Models
In this paper, we aim at developing a model for option pricing to reduce the risks associated with Ethiopian commodity prices fluctuations. We used the daily closed Unwashed Lekempti grade 5 (ULK5) coffee and Whitish Wollega Sesame Seed Grade3 (WWSS3) prices obtained from Ethiopia commodity exchange (ECX) market to analyse the prices fluctuations.The natures of log-returns of the prices exhibit a...
