The Heston Model with Term Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this project is to extend the Heston model in order to incorporate the term structure (TS) of the implied volatility surface. This includes implementing a TS within the Heston model and its calibration to a set of market instruments. The TS Heston model with piecewise constant parameters is implemented to match the TS and the COS pricing method is used for fast option pricing. We calibrate the model to the EUR/USD and USD/JPY market data and historic data is also used to test the robustness of the model. Then the model with calibrated parameters are used to price exotic options by means of Monte Carlo simulation with a new control variate we propose. Finally we also propose the COS method for pricing discrete barrier options as future research directions. The Heston model with term structure Date: Page: June 18, 2009 i

The Small-time Smile and Term Structure of Implied Volatility under the Heston Model
We characterise the asymptotic smile and term structure of implied volatility in the Heston model at small maturities. Using saddlepoint methods we derive a small-maturity expansion formula for call option prices, which we then transform into a closed-form expansion (including the leading-order and correction terms) for implied volatility. This refined expansion reveals the relationship between...
متن کاملPortfolio Optimization under Double Heston Duffie-Kan Model and the Price Calculation of the European Option
In this paper, we present a new version of the Double Heston model, where the mixed Duffie-Kan model is used to predict the volatility of the model instead of the CIR process. According to this model, we predict the stock price and calculate the European option price by using the Monte-Carlo method. Finally, by applying the proposed model, we find the optimal portfolio under the Cardinality Con...

In this paper, we study the problem of pricing multi-asset American-style options in the Heston-Hull-White model. It is widely recognized that our intended model compared to the original Heston model, due to its stochastic interest rate and stochastic volatility, is more compatible with the realistic of the market. We demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the our proposed method by verifyi...
متن کاملHeston Model: The Variance Swap Calibration
This paper features a market implied methodology to infer adequate starting values for the spot and long run variances and for the mean reversion rate of a calibration exercise under the Heston model. More particularly, these initial parameters are obtained by matching the term structure of the future expected total variance, inferred from the volatility surface, with the model’s term structure...
متن کاملForecasting the Term Structure of Variance Swaps
Recently, Diebold and Li (2003) obtained good forecasting results for yield curves in a reparametrized Nelson-Siegel framework. We analyze similar modeling approaches for price curves of variance swaps that serve nowadays as hedging instruments for options on realized variance. We consider the popular Heston model, reparametrize its variance swap price formula and model the entire variance swap...
