Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An invaluable resource for quantitative analysts who need to run models that assist in option pricing and risk management. This concise, practical hands on guide to Monte Carlo simulation introduces standard and advanced methods to the increasing complexity of derivatives portfolios. Ranging from pricing more complex derivatives, such as American and Asian options, to measuring Value at Risk, or modelling complex market dynamics, simulation is the only method general enough to capture the complexity and Monte Carlo simulation is the best pricing and risk management method available. The book is packed with numerous examples using real world data and is supplied with a CD to aid in the use of the examples.

This book was released on 2014-05-21 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Monte Carlo approach has proved to be a valuable and flexible computational tool in modern finance. A number of Monte Carlo simulation-based methods have been developed within the past years to address the American option pricing problem. The aim of this book is to present and analyze three famous simulation algorithms for pricing American style derivatives: the stochastic tree; the stochastic mesh and the least squares method (LSM). The author first presents the mathematical descriptions underlying these numerical methods. Then the selected algorithms are tested on a common set of problems in order to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each approach as a function of the problem characteristics. The results are compared and discussed on the basis of estimates precision and computation time. Overall the simulation framework seems to work considerably well in valuing American style derivative securities. When multi-dimensional problems are considered, simulation based methods seem to be the best solution to estimate prices since the general numerical procedures of finite difference and binomial trees become impractical in these specific situations.

This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2002 in the subject Mathematics - Stochastics, grade: 1, Technical University of Graz, language: English, abstract: Aus Sicht der Mathematik spielen Optionen eine wesentliche Rolle seit der bahnbrechenden Arbeit von Black und Scholes im Jahre 1973. Deren Modell basiert jedoch auf der unrealistischen Annahme, das log-returns von Aktienkursen normalverteilt sind. Eberlein und Keller haben 1995 gezeigt, daß solche log-returns hyperbolisch verteilt sind. Die vorliegende Arbeit baut auf dieser Annahme auf und erweitert das Optionsspektrum von Europäischen Optionen auf Asiatische, Amerikanische sowie Multi-Asset-Optionen. Weiters wird das "Standard"-Martingal-Maß, die sogenannte Esscher-Transformation, durch das Entropie-minimierende Maß erweitert. Da jedoch keine exakte Preissetzung solcher Optionen möglich ist, wird auf numerische Simulationen und Approximationen zurückgegriffen. Die verwendeten numerischen Verfahren sind die Monte Carlo-Methode mit verschiedenen Varianzreduktionstechniken und die Quasi-Monte Carlo Methode.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed from the author’s course on Monte Carlo simulation at Brown University, Monte Carlo Simulation with Applications to Finance provides a self-contained introduction to Monte Carlo methods in financial engineering. It is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students taking a one-semester course or for practitioners in the financial industry. The author first presents the necessary mathematical tools for simulation, arbitrary free option pricing, and the basic implementation of Monte Carlo schemes. He then describes variance reduction techniques, including control variates, stratification, conditioning, importance sampling, and cross-entropy. The text concludes with stochastic calculus and the simulation of diffusion processes. Only requiring some familiarity with probability and statistics, the book keeps much of the mathematics at an informal level and avoids technical measure-theoretic jargon to provide a practical understanding of the basics. It includes a large number of examples as well as MATLAB® coding exercises that are designed in a progressive manner so that no prior experience with MATLAB is needed.

Download or read book American Put Option Pricing Using a Hybrid Evolutionary Computation and Monte-Carlo Simulation Method written by Anjan Kumar Swain and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American put option pricing is a challenging, complex problem, and existing methods to address this problem are computationally intensive. In this paper, a self-adaptive evolutionary computation method is used for computing American put option price. The proposed method essentially transforms a discrete time exercisable American option to a continuous time exercisable option. The performance of the proposed method is compared with that of plain European Monte Carlo and Binomial Lattice option values. Further, in pricing American options this method exhibited better results with considerable improvements over that of conventional Monte-Carlo simulation method. It is argued that the proposed method effectively computes the upper bound on the American put options.
