Mean-variance Hedging in the Discontinuous Case
نویسنده
چکیده
The results on the mean-variance hedging problem in Gouriéroux, Laurent and Pham (1998), Rheinländer and Schweizer (1997) and Arai (2005) are extended to discontinuous semimartingale models. When the numéraire method is used, we only assume the Radon-Nikodym derivative of the variance-optimal signed martingale measure (VSMM) is non-zero almost surely (but may be strictly negative). When discussing the relation between the solutions and the Galtchouk-Kunita-Watanabe decompositions under the VSMM, we only assume the VSMM is equivalent to the reference probability.

Mean-Variance Hedging Under Partial Information
We consider the mean-variance hedging problem under partial Information. The underlying asset price process follows a continuous semimartingale and strategies have to be constructed when only part of the information in the market is available. We show that the initial mean variance hedging problem is equivalent to a new mean variance hedging problem with an additional correction term, which is ...
متن کاملMean-Variance Hedging under Additional Market Information
In this paper we analyse the mean-variance hedging approach in an incomplete market under the assumption of additional market information, which is represented by a given, finite set of observed prices of non-attainable contingent claims. Due to no-arbitrage arguments, our set of investment opportunities increases and the set of possible equivalent martingale measures shrinks. Therefore, we obt...
متن کاملHedging strategies of Energy Commodities
The paper examines the issue of hedging in energy markets. The objective of this study is to select an optimal model that will provide the highest price risk reduction for the selected commodities. We apply the ordinary least squares methods, autoregressive model, autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity and copula to calculate the appropriate dynamic minimum-variance hedge ratio. The obje...
متن کاملGlobal Adapted Solution of One-Dimensional Backward Stochastic Riccati Equations, with Application to the Mean-Variance Hedging
We obtain the global existence and uniqueness result for a one-dimensional backward stochastic Riccati equation, whose generator contains a quadratic term of L (the second unknown component). This solves the one-dimensional case of BismutPeng's problem which was initially proposed by Bismut (1978) in the Springer yellow book LNM 649. We use an approximation technique by constructing a sequence ...
متن کاملHedging discontinuous stochastic volatility models
We consider a stochastic volatility model with jumps where the underlying asset price is driven by a process sum of a 2-dimensional Brownian motion and 2-dimensional compensated Poisson process. The market is incomplete, there is an infinity of Equivalent Martingale Measures (E.M.M) and an infinity of hedging strategies. We characterize the set of E.M.M, and we hedge by minimizing the variance ...
