Book Synopsis Valuing American Options by Simulation by : Francis A. Longstaff
Download or read book Valuing American Options by Simulation written by Francis A. Longstaff and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a simple yet powerful new approach for valuing American options by simulation. The key to this approach is to use least squares to estimate the conditional expected payoff to the optionholder from continuation. This makes this approach readily applicable in path-dependent and multifactor situations where traditional finite difference and binomial techniques cannot be used. We illustrate this technique with a series of realistic examples ranging from the valuation of an American put in a single-factor setting to the valuation of a deferred American swaption in a twenty-factor string model of the term structure.

Book Synopsis Introduction to Stochastic Calculus Applied to Finance by : Damien Lamberton
Download or read book Introduction to Stochastic Calculus Applied to Finance written by Damien Lamberton and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-12-14 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the first edition of this book, the area of mathematical finance has grown rapidly, with financial analysts using more sophisticated mathematical concepts, such as stochastic integration, to describe the behavior of markets and to derive computing methods. Maintaining the lucid style of its popular predecessor, this concise and accessible introduction covers the probabilistic techniques required to understand the most widely used financial models. Along with additional exercises, this edition presents fully updated material on stochastic volatility models and option pricing as well as a new chapter on credit risk modeling. It contains many numerical experiments and real-world examples taken from the authors' own experiences. The book also provides all of the necessary stochastic calculus theory and implements some of the algorithms using SciLab. Key topics covered include martingales, arbitrage, option pricing, and the Black-Scholes model.
Book Synopsis On the Dangers of a Simplistic American Option Simulation Valuation Method by : Nelson Areal
Download or read book On the Dangers of a Simplistic American Option Simulation Valuation Method written by Nelson Areal and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chen and Shen (2003) argue that it is possible to improve the Least Squares Monte Carlo Method (LSMC) of Longstaff and Schwartz (2001) to value American options by removing the least squares regression module. This would make not only faster but also more accurate. We demonstrate, using a large sample of 2500 put options that the proposed algorithm - the Perfect Foresight Method (PFM) - is, as argued by the authors, faster than the LSMC algorithm but, contrary to what they state, it is not more accurate than the LSMC. In fact, the PFM algorithm incorrectly prices American options, resulting in an upward biased value of the option. We therefore, do not recommend the use of the PFM.

Book Synopsis Valuation of American Options by : David Animante

Book excerpt: The use of American style equity options as hedging instrument has gained currency in recent times. This phenomenon devolves from the ever-expanding need by individuals, corporations and governments to hedge away their financial risks and the clarion call for derivative securities that give the holder increased flexibility in exercise. Nevertheless, pricing American options is complex and there exists no analytic solution to the problem except a profusion of approximation and finite difference techniques. Indeed, many researchers have shown that these methods cannot handle multifactor situations where the underlying asset follows a jump-diffusion process and where the derivative security depends on multiple sources of uncertainty such as stochastic volatility, stochastic interest rate among others. Monte-Carlo simulation techniques therefore developed out of the search for a pricing formula that has the capacity to accommodate all forms of uncertainty and at the same time able to produce speedy and accurate results. Some scholars at first rejected these techniques as yielding inaccurate results but in recent times, many researchers have demonstrated the efficacy of Monte-Carlo simulation in option pricing. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of Monte-Carlo simulation methods in comparison with other option pricing techniques. To achieve this objective, the research builds an algorithm to compute Call and Put prices based on a wide range of input parameters. It also develops a model where volatility or interest rate is stochastic and a deterministic function of time. The results indicate that Monte-Carlo simulation techniques produce option values and exercise boundaries that are very similar to the Binomial, Barone-Adesi and Whaley as well as the Explicit Finite Difference methods. The results also show that the stochastic volatility and stochastic interest rate models yield slightly different but more accurate results. Consequently, the study recommends simulation techniques that incorporate multiple sources of uncertainty simultaneously for fast, efficient and more accurate option pricing.

Book Synopsis The Numerical Solution of the American Option Pricing Problem by : Carl Chiarella
Download or read book The Numerical Solution of the American Option Pricing Problem written by Carl Chiarella and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early exercise opportunity of an American option makes it challenging to price and an array of approaches have been proposed in the vast literature on this topic. In The Numerical Solution of the American Option Pricing Problem, Carl Chiarella, Boda Kang and Gunter Meyer focus on two numerical approaches that have proved useful for finding all prices, hedge ratios and early exercise boundaries of an American option. One is a finite difference approach which is based on the numerical solution of the partial differential equations with the free boundary problem arising in American option pricing, including the method of lines, the component wise splitting and the finite difference with PSOR. The other approach is the integral transform approach which includes Fourier or Fourier Cosine transforms. Written in a concise and systematic manner, Chiarella, Kang and Meyer explain and demonstrate the advantages and limitations of each of them based on their and their co-workers'' experiences with these approaches over the years. Contents: Introduction; The Merton and Heston Model for a Call; American Call Options under Jump-Diffusion Processes; American Option Prices under Stochastic Volatility and Jump-Diffusion Dynamics OCo The Transform Approach; Representation and Numerical Approximation of American Option Prices under Heston; Fourier Cosine Expansion Approach; A Numerical Approach to Pricing American Call Options under SVJD; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index; About the Authors. Readership: Post-graduates/ Researchers in finance and applied mathematics with interest in numerical methods for American option pricing; mathematicians/physicists doing applied research in option pricing.
