In this paper, we aim at developing a model for option pricing to reduce the risks associated with Ethiopian commodity prices fluctuations. We used the daily closed Unwashed Lekempti grade 5 (ULK5) coffee and Whitish Wollega Sesame Seed Grade3 (WWSS3) prices obtained from Ethiopia commodity exchange (ECX) market to analyse the prices fluctuations.The natures of log-returns of the prices exhibit a...

In this paper we consider the pricing of point-to-point bandwidth leasing contracts and options. The underlying asset of these contracts is a point-to-point telecommunications connection. Due to the network structure the network capacity prices depend nonlinearly on each other. A leasing contract on a point-to-point connection can be seen as an option because the seller of the connection select...

in this paper two different methods are presented to approximate the solution of the fractional black-scholes equation for valuation of barrier option. also, the two schemes need less computational work in comparison with the traditional methods. in this work, we propose a new generalization of the two-dimensional differential transform method and decomposition method that will extend the appli...

in this paper, a new identification of the lagrange multipliers by means of the sumudu transform, is employed to  btain a quick and accurate solution to the fractional black-scholes equation with the initial condition for a european option pricing problem. undoubtedly this model is the most well known model for pricing financial derivatives. the fractional derivatives is described in caputo sen...

In this paper, we take the advantage of high frequency data to develop option pricing model and select the Realized GARCH model to describe the volatility of assets, use NIG distribution to describe the distribution of underlying assets, and also build the Realized-GARCH-NIG model to price the option. Finally, we obtain the dynamic option pricing model based on the Realized-GARCH-NIG approach. ...
