Pricing of Asian Exchange Rate Options under Stochastic Interest Rates as a Sum of Delayed Payment Options J. Aase Nielsen and Klaus Sandmann

چکیده
The aim of the paper is to develop pricing formulas for European type Asian options written on the exchange rate in a two currency economy. The exchange rate as well as the foreign and domestic zero coupon bond prices are assumed to follow geometric Brownian motions. As a special case of a discrete Asian option we analyse the delayed payment currency option and develop closed form pricing and hedging formulas. The main emphasis is devoted to the discretely sampled Asian option. It is shown how the value of this option can be approximated as the sum of Black-Scholes options. The formula is obtained under the application of results developed by Rogers and Shi (1995) and Jamshidian (1991). In addition bounds for the pricing error are determined. Date. September 1997.

Options on Energy Portfolios in an HJM Framework
This paper implements a pricing procedure for commodity options, taking into account the stochastic nature of spot prices, currency exchange rates and convenience yields. Interest rate risk is also mentioned, but is not included in the numerical implementation. The analytic framework is heavily inspired by Miltersen&Schwartz(1998); however, while they allow the interest rate to be stochastic th...

In this work, we consider the issue of pricing exchange options and spread options with stochastic interest rates. We provide the closed form solution for the exchange option price when interest rate is stochastic. Our result holds when interest rate is modeled with a stochastic term structure of general form, which includes Vasicek model, CIR term structure, and other well-known term structure...
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...
