48 results for hedging strategy

Hedging in the presence of transaction costs leads to complex optimization problems. These problems typically lack closed-form solutions, and their implementation relies on numerical methods that provide hedging strategies for specific parameter values. In this paper we use a genetic programming algorithm to derive exp…

We consider hedging of a contingent claim by a 'semi-static' strategy composed of a dynamic position in one asset and static (buy-and-hold) positions in other assets. We give general representations of the optimal strategy and the hedging error under the criterion of variance-optimality and provide tractable formulas u…

Neural nets optimize dynamic hedging strategies with transaction costs.

problem Optimal hedging strategy in presence of transaction costs and discrete time.

Modelling stock prices via jump processes is common in financial markets. In practice, to hedge a contingent claim one typically uses the so-called delta-hedging strategy. This strategy stems from the Black--Merton--Scholes model where it perfectly replicates contingent claims. From the theoretical viewpoint, there is …

A new hedging strategy uses deep reinforcement learning to manage gamma and vega risks.

problem Managing gamma and vega risks in derivatives trading with stochastic underlying.
method Deep distributional reinforcement learning (D4PG) combined with quantile regression.
result Optimal hedging strategy depends on objective function, transaction costs, and option maturity.

Risk aversion is a key element of utility maximizing hedge strategies; however, it has typically been assigned an arbitrary value in the literature. This paper instead applies a GARCH-in-Mean (GARCH-M) model to estimate a time-varying measure of risk aversion that is based on the observed risk preferences of energy hed…

result Optimal hedging strategy with lower transaction costs and fair price convergence.

We consider the problem of hedging a European contingent claim in a Bachelier model with transient price impact as proposed by Almgren and Chriss. Following the approach of Rogers and Singh and Naujokat and Westray, the hedging problem can be regarded as a cost optimal tracking problem of the frictionless hedging strat…

method Derive sensitivity-based and minimum-variance-based hedging strategies using neural-SDE market models.
result Neural-SDE models achieve lower hedging errors and are more robust than traditional models.

We consider a strictly pathwise setting for Delta hedging exotic options, based on Föllmer's pathwise Itō calculus. Price trajectories are dd-dimensional continuous functions whose pathwise quadratic variations and covariations are determined by a given local volatility matrix. The existence of Delta hedging strategie…

method Integrates surface-informed decisions with multiple hedging instruments, accounting for transaction costs and variance risk premium.
result Consistently outperforms traditional hedging strategies across various market conditions.

We refine the analysis of hedging strategies for options under the SABR model carried out in [2]. In particular, we provide a theoretical justification of the empirical observation made in [2] that the modified delta ("Bartlett's delta") introduced there provides a more accurate and robust hedging strategy than the con…
