KrigHedge uses Gaussian processes to approximate option Greeks efficiently.
In this article, we investigate the behavior of long-term options. In many cases, option prices follow an exponential decay (or growth) rate for further maturity dates. We determine under what conditions option prices are characterized by this property. To see this, we use the martingale extraction method through which…
Fourier methods fail to accurately approximate option Greeks in realistic market conditions.
Proposes a new framework for invariant quadratic P&L predictions in option books.
This paper is concerned with the asymptotics for Greeks of European-style options and the risk-neutral density function calculated under the constant elasticity of variance model. Formulae obtained help financial engineers to construct a perfect hedge with known behaviour and to price any options on financial assets.
We derive new formulas for the price of the European call and put options in the Black-Scholes model, under the form of uniformly convergent series generalizing previously known approximations. We also provide precise boundaries for the convergence speed and apply the results to the calculation of hedge parameters (Gre…
Paper calculates greeks for DeFi LPs and introduces Impermanent Gain.
Hedging methods to mitigate the exposure of variable annuity products to market risks require the calculation of market risk sensitivities (or "Greeks"). The complex, path-dependent nature of these products means these sensitivities typically must be estimated by Monte Carlo simulation. Standard market practice is to m…
In the present paper we show that the Binomial-tree approach for pricing, hedging, and risk assessment of Convertible bonds in the framework of the Tsiveriotis-Fernandes model has serious drawbacks. Key words: Convertible bonds, Binomial tree, Tsiveriotis-Fernandes model, Convertible bond pricing, Convertible bond Gree…
In this paper we develop an algorithm to calculate the prices and Greeks of barrier options in a hyper-exponential additive model with piecewise constant parameters. We obtain an explicit semi-analytical expression for the first-passage probability. The solution rests on a randomization and an explicit matrix Wiener-Ho…
We consider option hedging in a model where the underlying follows an exponential Lévy process. We derive approximations to the variance-optimal and to some suboptimal strategies as well as to their mean squared hedging errors. The results are obtained by considering the Lévy model as a perturbation of the Black-Schole…
This paper extends the Singular Fourier--Padé (SFP) method proposed by Chan (2018) to pricing/hedging early-exercise options--Bermudan, American and discrete-monitored barrier options--under a Lévy process. The current SFP method is incorporated with the Filon--Clenshaw--Curtis (FCC) rules invented by Domínguez et al. …
This study deals with the problem of pricing European currency options in discrete time setting, whose prices follow the fractional Black Scholes model with transaction costs. Both the pricing formula and the fractional partial differential equation for European call currency options are obtained by applying the delta-…
New method calibrates LV surfaces for exotic derivatives with smoother, more stable Greeks.
Derivative-informed models improve financial surrogates for accurate hedging and risk management.
A machine learning method for short-maturity options with jumps and stochastic volatility.
The Libor market model is a mainstay term structure model of interest rates for derivatives pricing, especially for Bermudan swaptions, and other exotic Libor callable derivatives. For numerical implementation the pricing of derivatives with Libor market models is mainly carried out with Monte Carlo simulation. The PDE…
QMC and GSA improve option pricing and risk measures efficiency.
This paper applies an algorithm for the convolution of compactly supported Legendre series (the CONLeg method) (cf. Hale and Townsend 2014a), to pricing/hedging European-type, early-exercise and discrete-monitored barrier options under a Levy process. The paper employs Chebfun (cf. Trefethen et al. 2014) in computation…
Develops a machine-learning framework for optimal share repurchase hedging.
Efficient method for high-dimensional American option pricing and hedging.
We propose a pricing technique based on coherent risk measures, which enables one to get finer price intervals than in the No Good Deals pricing. The main idea consists in splitting a liability into several parts and selling these parts to different agents. The technique is closely connected with the convolution of coh…
The paper develops methods to price and hedge options in path-dependent stock models.
This paper uses Malliavin calculus to price and compute delta of financial derivatives in jump-diffusion models.
Paper assesses GMMB in VAs using FST for accurate net liability calculations.
Paper introduces a new pricing model for Uniswap V3 positions.
When firms want to buy back their own shares, they have a choice between several alternatives. If they often carry out open market repurchase, they also increasingly rely on banks through complex buyback contracts involving option components, e.g. accelerated share repurchase contracts, VWAP-minus profit-sharing contra…
A new method for computing Greeks without bias, improving stability.
FINN learns option pricing and hedging using financial theory.
Valuing Guaranteed Lifelong Withdrawal Benefit (GLWB) has attracted significant attention from both the academic field and real world financial markets. As remarked by Forsyth and Vetzal the Black and Scholes framework seems to be inappropriate for such long maturity products. They propose to use a regime switching mod…
The computation of Greeks for exponential Lévy models are usually approached by Malliavin Calculus and other methods, as the Likelihood Ratio and the finite difference method. In this paper we obtain exact formulas for Greeks of European options based on the Lewis formula for the option value. Therefore, it is possible…
Quasi-Monte Carlo speeds up option Greeks calculation on GPUs.
Researchers compute Greeks for rough Volterra SV models using Malliavin calculus.
We investigate the pricing of cliquet options in a jump-diffusion model. The considered option is of monthly sum cap style while the underlying stock price model is driven by a drifted Lévy process entailing a Brownian diffusion component as well as compound Poisson jumps. We also derive representations for the density…
Matrix approximation method for Bachelier option pricing and Greeks under stochastic volatility models
Valuing Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB) has attracted significant attention from both the academic field and real world financial markets. As remarked by Yang and Dai, the Black and Scholes framework seems to be inappropriate for such a long maturity products. Also Chen Vetzal and Forsyth in showed that th…
New method reduces Monte Carlo error in option pricing and Greeks estimation.
The aim of the present article is to treat the Greek public debt issue strictly as a curve fitting problem. Thus, based on Eurostat data and using the Mathematica technical computing software, an exponential function that best fits the data is determined modelling how the Greek public debt expands with time. Exploring …
We consider the framework proposed by Burgard and Kjaer (2011) that derives the PDE which governs the price of an option including bilateral counterparty risk and funding. We extend this work by relaxing the assumption of absence of transaction costs in the hedging portfolio by proposing a cost proportional to the amou…

Derives token price process for AMM tokens, finds leverage effect and pricing discrepancies.
This paper presents a new methodology to compute first-order Greeks for barrier options under the framework of path-dependent payoff functions with European, Lookback, or Asian type and with time-dependent trigger levels. In particular, we develop chain rules for Wiener path integrals between two curves that arise in t…
Dupire's functional Itô calculus provides an alternative approach to the classical Malliavin calculus for the computation of sensitivities, also called Greeks, of path-dependent derivatives prices. In this paper, we introduce a measure of path-dependence of functionals within the functional Itô calculus framework. Name…

Effective dimensionality reduction improves accuracy and reduces costs in estimating option Greeks.
We review and apply Quasi Monte Carlo (QMC) and Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) techniques to pricing and risk management (greeks) of representative financial instruments of increasing complexity. We compare QMC vs standard Monte Carlo (MC) results in great detail, using high-dimensional Sobol' low discrepancy sequen…
In the present work we propose an original analytical model of coopetitive game. We try to apply this analytical model of coopetition - based on game theory and conceived at a macro level - to the Greek crisis, suggesting feasible solutions in a cooperative perspective for the divergent interests which drive the econom…
