American Contingent Claims with Physical Delivery under Small Proportional Transaction Costs
نویسنده
چکیده
American options exercised by physical delivery of a portfolio of cash and underlying stock are considered in the binary tree model under small proportional transaction costs. Dynamic programming type recursive algorithms are developed for computing the ask and bid prices of such options, extending the Snell envelope construction. Representations of the ask and bid prices of American options with physical delivery in terms of maximax and, respectively, maximin martingale expectations of stopped option payoffs are also established in this setting.

Hedging of Claims with Physical Delivery under Convex Transaction Costs
We study superhedging of contingent claims with physical delivery in a discretetime market model with convex transaction costs. Our model extends Kabanov’s currency market model by allowing for nonlinear illiquidity effects. We show that an appropriate generalization of Schachermayer’s robust no arbitrage condition implies that the set of claims hedgeable with zero cost is closed in probability...
متن کاملHedging Options under Transaction Costs and Stochastic Volatility
In this paper we consider the problem of hedging contingent claims on a stock under transaction costs and stochastic volatility. Extensive research has clearly demonstrated that the volatility of most stocks is not constant over time. As small changes of the volatility can have a major impact on the value of contingent claims, hedging strategies should try to eliminate this volatility risk. We ...
متن کاملBounds on prices of contingent claims in an intertemporal economy with proportional transaction costs and general preferences
Analytic bounds on the reservation write price of European-style contingent claims are derived in the presence of proportional transaction costs in a model which allows for intermediate trading. The option prices are obtained via a utility maximization approach by comparing the maximized utilities with and without the contingent claim. The mathematical tools come mainly from the theories of sin...
متن کاملOn option pricing in binomial market with transaction costs
Option replication is studied in a discrete-time framework with proportional transaction costs. The model represents an extension of the Cox-RossRubinstein binomial option-pricing model to cover the case of proportional transaction costs for one risky asset with different interest rates on bank credit and deposit. Contingent claims are supposed to be 2-dimensional random variables. Explicit for...
متن کاملA note on utility-based pricing in models with transaction costs
In this paper, we consider the utility indifference pricing and utility-based pricing in the market with transaction costs. The utility maximization problem including contingent claims in the market with transaction costs has been considered by Bouchard(2002)[3]. Following his results, we consider the market equilibrium of contingent claims. In order to do this, specifying the utility function ...
