Term Structure Movements Implicit in Asian Option Prices
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we implement dynamic term structure models that adopt bonds and Asian options in the estimation process. The goal is to analyze the pricing and hedging implications of term structure movements when options are (or not) included in the estimation process. We analyze how options affect the shape, risk premium and hedging structure of the dynamic factors. We find that the inclusion of options affects the loadings of the slope and curvature factors, and considerably changes the risk premium and hedging structure of all dynamic factors.

On the Information in the Interest Rate Term Structure and Option Prices
Cap and swaption prices contain information on interest rate volatilities and correlations. In this paper, we examine whether this information in cap and swaption prices is consistent with realized movements of the interest rate term structure. To extract an option-implied interest rate covariance matrix from cap and swaption prices, we use Libor market models or discrete-tenor string models as...
متن کاملInvestigating the Sustainability of Asian, European and American Regional Gas Markets in Response to Currency and Crude Oil Price Shocks
In this study, we model the long-term and dynamic relationships between spot oil and exchange rates and gas prices by applying the Markov switching vector self-regression model in three regional gas markets in USA, Europe and Asia. Price behavior is analyzed using Bayesian estimation to take into account the transition from an existing relationship and the delayed and recurring effects of pric...
متن کاملNonparametric estimation of state-price densities implicit in financial asset prices
Implicit in the prices of traded nancial assets are Arrow-Debreu prices or, with continuous states, the state-price density (SPD). We construct a nonparametric estimator for the SPD implicit in option prices and derive its asymptotic sampling theory. This estimator provides an arbitrage-free method of pricing new, complex, or illiquid securities while capturing those features of the data that a...
متن کاملEstimation and Simulation of Bond Option Pricing on the Arbitrage Free Model with Jump
In pricing and hedging with financial derivatives, term structure models with jump are particularly important [1], since ignoring jumps in financial prices may cause inaccurate pricing and hedging rates [2]. Solutions of term structure model under jump-diffusion processes are justified because of movements in interest rates displaying both continuous and discontinuous behaviors [3]. Moreover, t...
متن کاملWhat drives investor risk aversion? Daily evidence from the German equity market
Stock prices move as corporate earnings prospects change but they also move as investors change their aversion to risk. Aversion to risk gives rise to a risk premium, which consists of an expected extra return that investors require to be compensated for the risk of holding stocks. Option prices are a unique source of information for the estimation of risk premia. The way strike prices in optio...
