On the difference between locally risk-minimizing and delta hedging strategies for exponential Lévy models

چکیده
We discuss the difference between locally risk-minimizing and delta hedging strategies for exponential Lévy models, where delta hedging strategies in this paper are defined under the minimal martingale measure. We give firstly model-independent upper estimations for the difference. In addition we show numerical examples for two typical exponential Lévy models: Merton models and variance gamma models.

Errors from discrete hedging in exponential Lévy models: the L2 approach
Abstract We analyze the errors arising from discrete rebalancing of the hedging portfolio in exponential Lévy models, and establish the rates at which the expected squared discretization error goes to zero when the length of the rebalancing step decreases. Different hedging strategies and option pay-offs are considered. The case of digital options is studied in detail, and it turns out that in ...
متن کاملHedging of Options in Jump-Diffusion Markets with Correlated Assets
We consider the hedging problem in a jump-diffusion market with correlated assets. For this purpose, we employ the locally risk-minimizing approach and obtain the hedging portfolio as a solution of a multidimensional system of linear equations. This system shows that in a continuous market, independence and correlation assumptions of assets lead to the same locally risk-minimizing portfolio. ...
متن کاملDynamic Cross Hedging Effectiveness between Gold and Stock Market Based on Downside Risk Measures: Evidence from Iran Emerging Capital Market
This paper examines the hedging effectiveness of gold futures for the stock market in minimizing variance and downside risks, including value at risk and expected shortfall using data from the Iran emerging capital market during four different sub-periods from December 2008 to August 2018. We employ dynamic conditional correlation models including VARMA-BGARCH (DCC, ADCC, BEKK, and ABEKK) and c...
متن کاملRisk Management in Oil Market: A Comparison between Multivariate GARCH Models and Copula-based Models
H igh price volatility and the risk are the main features of commodity markets. One way to reduce this risk is to apply the hedging policy by future contracts. In this regard, in this paper, we will calculate the optimal hedging ratios for OPEC oil. In this study, besides the multivariate GARCH models, for the first time we use conditional copula models for modelling dependence struc...
متن کاملOption Hedging in the Presence of Jump Risk
We examine Schweizer's (1991) locally risk-minimizing (LRM) hedge approach for hedging a European call in the case when the stock price follows a Poisson jump di usion process with lognormally distributed jump sizes. In contrast to Merton's (1976) hedging strategy where di usion risk is perfectly hedged while jump risk remains un-hedged, the locally risk-minimizing strategy hedges both di usion...
