Option Pricing in a Regime-switching Model Using the Fast Fourier Transform
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is concerned with fast Fourier transform (FFT) approach to option valuation, where the underlying asset price is governed by a regime-switching geometric Brownian motion. An FFT method for the regime-switching model is developed first. Aiming at reducing computational complexity, a near-optimal FFT scheme is proposed when the modulating Markov chain has a large state space. To test the FFT method, a novel semiMonte Carlo simulation algorithm is developed. This method takes advantage of the observation that the option value for a given sample path of the underlying Markov chain can be calculated using the Black-Scholes formula. Finally, numerical results are reported.

Option pricing under the double stochastic volatility with double jump model
In this paper, we deal with the pricing of power options when the dynamics of the risky underling asset follows the double stochastic volatility with double jump model. We prove efficiency of our considered model by fast Fourier transform method, Monte Carlo simulation and numerical results using power call options i.e. Monte Carlo simulation and numerical results show that the fast Fourier tra...
متن کاملPricing exotic options under regime switching: A Fourier transform method
This paper considers the valuation of exotic options (i.e. digital, barrier, and lookback options) in a Markovian, regime-switching, Black-Scholes model. In Fourier space, analytical expressions for the option prices are derived via the theory on matrix Wiener-Hopf factorizations. A comparison to numerical alternatives, i.e. the Brownian bridge algorithm or a finite element scheme, demonstrates...

In this paper, we provided a fast algorithm for pricing European options under a double exponential jump-diffusion model based on Fourier transform. We derived a closed-form (CF) representation of the characteristic function of the model. By using fast Fourier transform (FFT) technique, we obtained an approximation numerical solution for the prices of European call options. Our numerical result...

متن کاملPricing American Options in Regime-switching Models: Fft Realization∗
The pricing problem for American options in Markov-modulated Lévy models is solved. The early exercise boundaries and prices are calculated using a generalization of Carr’s randomization procedure for regime-switching models. The pricing procedure is efficient even if the number of states is large, provided the transition rates are not large w.r.t. the riskless rates. The payoffs and riskless r...
